I think this is incorrect, and B and E are correct. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/production-control/lean-manufacturing-kanban-job-scheduling Schedule schedules the selected jobs according to their due date. (This option resembles automatic planning.) Schedule forward from date tries to schedule the selected jobs according to their due date but constrains the result by using the specified earliest start date. since "Previous period moves the selected scheduled jobs to the start or end of the previous period." will not result in ontime items, since you are still in the first month.
