For non-MRCT breakdown WO/Tasks: Work Order is received, P/S assigns an initial priority and ESTIMATED duration, and sets the Status to In Planning. This is usually performed through the Planner Portal, but can be done in the Portal or the CLIENT as well.
You are just making an educated guess at the priority and the duration. It will be further refined in the additional steps of the process. This initial step just helps to get a better understanding of how much time is in your backlog, since all MRCT and MOTH tasks are generated with a zero duration. It also allows you to drag the Task onto the schedule board (once it's ready), because now you have a duration.
While a Task Status Reason is not required for In Planning, there are several available to clarify the step of the planning process. Task Status Reasons for In Planning include: Kitted, Waiting on Materials, Waiting on Production, Waiting on Service, Scheduling Complete and Planning Complete.
Depending on where you are viewing the Task from, you may see the Task Status Reason of Planning Complete say Ready for Scheduling.
