Calculate Routing Lead Time
Explanation
This activity is used to calculate the lead times of routing
alternates for one or several parts at a site.
The calculation is initiated from the Calculate Routing Lead
Time assistant that is accessed from the navigator. In
the assistant, specify the settings to use and click Finish. You specify whether you want to run the
calculation for one part at a time or for all parts in a specific site. The
calculation runs in the background, allowing you to continue working with
the system as usual. For additional information see Routing Lead Time Calculation.
Prerequisites
A part with a defined alternate on a routing, that has not been phased out, must exist.
System Effects
- The routing alternate lead times on routings valid today and in the
future are calculated for a part or for all parts on a site. The lead time
fields on Routing, Routing Alternate
and Routing Alternates pages are updated based on
the calculation.
- If the calculation was performed with Update Lead Time
set to Update or Update also expected, the
fixed and variable lead times by day and by hour fields and Fixed
and Variable Lead Time Source on Inventory
Part/Manufacturing and Manufacturing Part
Attributes pages and the Manufacturing Lead Time
on Inventory Part/Main are updated for:
- Parts with Part Type set to Manufactured
or Manufactured Recipe, based on the
calculated lead times for default routing alternate (where Alternate
is set to *) on the routing with
Routing Type set to Manufacturing, and
valid today.
- Parts with Part Type set to Remanufactured,
based on the calculated lead times for the default routing alternate on the
routing with Routing Type set to
Remanufacturing, and valid today.
- Parts with Part Type set to Purchased,
Disassembly Component and By-Product
with only one type of routing valid today, based on the calculated lead
times for this default routing alternate. Parts with
routing revisions for more than one routing type valid today will not be updated.
- If the calculation was performed with Update Lead Time
set to Update also expected, also the Expected Lead
Time on Inventory Part/Main will be
updated based on the calculations for the scenarios mentioned above.
