The main scheduling problems in the literature have focusedon analyzing the problem of organizing machines andproduction capabilities in an environment with fixed sellingprice. However, in a make-to-order (MTO) environment theassumption of pricing can be followed in an interface withscheduling problem. In this research we first review theexistence literature of order acceptance and scheduling inparticular in a MTO environment. Using an OASP problem,the orders are calculated by their controllable processingtime, due date, deadline, release date and sequencedependent setup time. Then under joint optimizationapproach, the pricing decisions set for unrelated parallelmachine environment. The objective of the problem is tomaximize the total net profit. The results show that the basicdeveloped problem can solve the scheduling decisions basedon different levels of products’ priced. Thus the problemsolves these two categories of decisions simultaneously.
