The plan time can be found on the Planning tab of the Production calculation for operations form. If you are planning with machine times, the planned time is displayed next to the Machine line; if you are planning with labor times, planned time is displayed next to the Labor line. The plan time is initially determined by adding up the setup time, the cycle time, and the adjustment time. If hours have been posted against the operation (actual costing), these hours are deducted from the plan time. On re-planning, the time already spent on an operation will therefore be taken into account. The plan time can be changed on the Planning tab. You may have to change the plan time if an operation will take longer or shorter than originally scheduled. Re-planning will then be based on the changed plan time. |
