Symptoms

First operation in the routing is scheduled at the start of the planning horizon and not adjacent to the 2nd operation if the 2nd operation is setup with a firm start late in the planning period resulting in huge gap between 1st and rest of the operations.

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Setup a routing with multiple operation steps
2. Create a work order
3. Setup firm start date constraint for the 2nd operation with firm start start date on 5/3/2023
4. Solve the model (Planning horizon start is 4/4/2023)
5. Observe the 1st operation is scheduled on 4/4/2023 and not adjacent to the 2nd operation scheduled on 5/3/2023
