formula
PRIORITY=(WKHRS-TIME)÷#OPS
where
WKHRS = work hours until delivery date
TIME = total processing time
#OPS = number of remaining operations
Priority scheduling rules are used to determine the order in which
customer orders should be worked. One priority rule uses an
index based on the number of work hours until the delivery date,
the processing time for the order and the number of operations
remaining to complete the order. The lower the index, the higher
the priority.
