This screen allows you to define or modify the description of an operation.

PLANT

Display only.  The plant where this routing is used.  It was entered on the Function Select screen.

PART NUMBER

Display only.  The item that is manufactured using this routing.  It was entered on the Function Select screen.

OPERATION NUMBER AND OPERATION LINE NUMBER

Display only.  The unique, sequential number assigned to the manufacturing or assembly step.  The operation number is the first three digits; the operation line number is the last two digits.

BATCH QUANTITY

Display only.  Not displayed for parts with a batch quantity of 1.  The batch quantity is the standard quantity of an item that is produced in each production run.

OPERATION DESCRIPTION

Required.  Used to describe the operation; appears on the shop paperwork and on various inquiries and reports.  Extended description may be entered using routing comments (Option 7 from the Routing Maintenance Menu).

OPERATION TYPE

Required.  The valid operation types are:

1 - Standard

2 - Master

3 - Setup only overlap

4 - Run time overlap

5 - Setup and run time overlap

6 - Fixed time no overlap

7 - Fixed time setup only overlap.

WORKCENTER NUMBER

Required.  The number of the workcenter in which the operation is performed.  Workcenter numbers that are numeric and greater than or equal to 900 are reserved as miscellaneous cost workcenters, and are not valid in this maintenance screen.

CREW OPERATION FLAG

Required.  Valid values are:

Y - The operation is a crew operation

N - The operation is not a crew operation.  Crew operations are not valid for machine-paced workcenters.

SETUP HOURS

Optional.  Number of hours required to set up this operation, regardless of order quantity.  This field has one decimal place.  It is used in the Shop Floor Control scheduling logic and Capacity Planning load logic.

PIECE RATE

Required (operations 1-5).  This field defines the production rate for the operation.  Enter either the number of pieces per hour or the number of hours per piece (depending on the Piece Rate Standard that was defined on the manufacturing warehouse for the plant).

FIXED TIME LOAD

Required (operations 6-7).  This field defines the number of hours required to complete a fixed-time operation per unit or per batch, if the batch quantity is greater than 1.

SENSITIVITY FLAG

Only valid for parts using batch quantities greater than 1 and using operation types 6 or 7.  This flag is only valid when both of these conditions are met.  An 'N' indicates that the fixed time load is truly fixed.  A 'Y' indicates that the fixed time load is only fixed as a function of batch quantity.  The field will default to 'N' if left blank and only appears for parts that are produced in batches.  To see an illustration of how the sensitivity flag works in conjunction with the sensitivity factor to determine time required for an operation, place an "X" next to this paragraph and press F11.

SENSITIVITY FACTOR

Only valid for operation types 6-7 for parts made in batches that are sensitive (see Sensitivity Flag). Factor is used to determine the threshold at which another batch will be needed.  This field will default to zero and only appears for parts that are produced in batches.  To see how the sensitivity factor works in conjunction with the sensitivity flag to determine time required for an operation, place an "X" next to this paragraph and press F11.

LABOR HOURS

Optional.  For a fixed-time operation, this field is used to define the labor hours for costing purposes.  Labor and machine hours are divided by the average order quantity to develop unit labor and overhead costs.  Enter the standard number of labor hours that contribute to the cost of the part per piece.

MACHINE HOURS

Optional.  For a fixed-time operation, this field is used to define machine hours for costing purposes.  Labor and machine hours are divided by the average order quantity to develop unit labor and overhead costs.  Enter the standard number of machine hours that contribute to the cost per piece.

NUMBER OF PERSONS

Required for labor-paced operations, may be zero for machine-paced operations.  Should indicate the number of persons or the crew size required to perform this operation.

NUMBER OF MACHINES

Required for machine-paced operations, may be zero for labor-paced operations.  Should indicate the number of machines required for this operation.

MACHINE NUMBER

Optional.  Specifies the machine required or recommended for this operation.  It is user-defined and alphanumeric.

TOOL NUMBER

Optional.  Documents any tooling required for this operation.  Additional tooling may be defined in the comments for this operation.

OVERLAP PERCENT

Optional.  Cannot be entered for operation types 1, 2, 3, 6 or 7; either Overlap Percent or Overlap Quantity must be entered for operation types 4 and 5.  Specifies the percentage of the order quantity that should be completed in the preceding operation before this operation can begin.  It cannot be greater than 100 and cannot be zero.

OVERLAP QUANTITY

Optional.  Cannot be entered for operation types 1, 2, 3, 6 or 7; either Overlap Percent or Overlap Quantity must be entered for operation types 4 and 5.  Specifies the quantity of parts that should be completed in the preceding operation before this operation can begin.  You may enter a quantity of zero if the operation can be run in parallel with the previous operation.  This field has no decimal places.

ENGINEERING CHANGE ORDER - IN

Required if Reference File category N38 (Routing ECO Date Option) is 1 - ECO Required.  Identifies the ECO that brings an operation into effectivity.  If entered, must be defined on the ECO file.

EFFECTIVITY-IN DATE

Optional.  The date on which the operation first becomes effective.  If field is left blank, but the ECO field has been entered, the date is defaulted from the ECO file.  The date is system maintained if Reference File category N38 is 1 or 2.

ENGINEERING CHANGE ORDER - OUT

Required if Reference File category N38 (Routing ECO Date Option) is 1 - ECO Required.  Identifies the engineering change that causes the operation to be removed from the routing.  If entered, must be defined on the ECO file.

EFFECTIVITY-OUT DATE

Optional.  The date after which the operation is no longer effective.  If field is left blank, but the ECO field has been entered, the date is defaulted from the ECO file.  The date is system maintained if Reference File category N38 is 1 or 2.

COMMAND KEYS

Enter - Update changes.

F2    - Display a window where a fast path option or mnemonic can be entered.  Fast path allows the next menu selection to be made directly from this screen.  When the window is displayed, pressing F3 will remove it.

F3    - Exit program without update.

F4    - Display a list of values for the field where the cursor is positioned.  If you select one of the items from the list, it will be returned to the application screen.

F9    - Enter the Routing Retrieval Inquiry without updating changes.

F10   - Return to Function Select screen without updating changes.

F11   - Enter the Bill of Documents Inquiry program.
