The MU Production Scheduler is responsible for creating a detailed schedule plan from the planned orders provided weekly by the MU Supply Planner (non-principal) or the Regional Supply Planner (principal).

The MU Production Scheduler is part of the Operations function, which ensures the integration of key business processes from supplier to customers, providing products, services, and information that add value for customers and stakeholders. The function manages sourcing, procurement, manufacturing, supply chain (warehousing, logistics, and distribution), and planning processes, ensuring optimal alignment between demand and supply globally, considering efficiency, flexibility, security of supply, costs, working capital, quality, service levels, and societal values.
