Parallel Orders

For example, there may be several orders being processed in multi-operation machines. For example, there may be an average of 6 orders being taken care of at the same time. This means that it will take 6 times longer than planned, in lead time terms. There may often just be one operation, where a material or substance is being processed. The material may be booked too late, and the start and finish period on the order will be misleading.

Here you can enter a factor that divides the capacity in lead time calculations during order registration, and thereby extends the lead time. This will become a standard value for the work center.
