Timing Code
This only applies to Workshop Info. Under Timing code you can select how to record time for operations in this work center. There are three alternatives:
- Recorded time - Use this set the time that the operators report in the Recording Terminal.
- Pre-calculated time - Use this to set the time that was calculated in the pre-calculation.
- Distribute as per pre-calculation - This is required if you want to use batch recording in the Recording Terminal. Batch recording means that several different operations can be started and finished at the same time, and that the reported time will be distributed evenly among them. The time calculation will distribute the time according to the planned time and quantity taken from the pre-calculation, as well as the reported quantity.
Batch recording can be used for cutting operations, for example, where several operations use the same raw material and also have short lead times. This will avoid wasting time on unnecessary reporting.
The timing code can also be changed individually for each operation, using the Priority Planning procedure in the Workshop Info module.
Please Note! If you make any changes in the field, a control question appears asking if the change shall apply to all manufacturing orders where the current work center and rest quantity are used.
