Report Labor Time

Explanation

Use this activity to report labor time for a shop order operation. It can be the time needed to set up an operation before manufacturing begins (setup time) or the time of the actual manufacturing (runtime). Crew size indicates the number of people that worked on the operation. A crew size less than 1 indicates a person worked partly on the operation during its duration.

  • Select an operation and click Approve or click Scrap and enable Report Time.
  • Enter the time in the Labor Setup to Report and/or Labor to Report fields.

Prerequisites

• The shop order operation must be in at least the Released status.
• To report labor time when reporting scrap, Report Time With Scrap must have been enabled on the Work Center page for the work center which to the operation belongs, and you must also report some scrap quantity.
• The operation must have a labor class entered for the respective time type.
• To be able to add an operation result to the time card of an employee, the reporting mode must be Employee for the site set as primary on the Shop Floor Employees per Site page.

System Effects

• The status of the operation changes to either Setup Started, Setup Complete or Partially Reported depending on what you report.
• A labor history (LABOR_RPT) transaction is created.
• If the Adjust Schedule Due To Shop Floor Reporting option has been enabled on the Shop Order Scheduling Basic Data/Scheduling Server tab, the schedule will be adjusted to reflect the reported time.
• If Buffered Operations Reporting is enabled and the Adjust Schedule Due To Shop Floor Reporting option on the Shop Order Scheduling Basic Data/Scheduling Server tab has been selected, at the next execution of buffered operations reporting the scheduling server will adjust the operation time due to remaining quantity and:
  • if Prioritize Reported Operation was chosen - the reported operation is given priority and scheduled as close as possible to now time.
  • if Keep Scheduled Operation Sequence was chosen - the schedule will be updated without altering the previous schedule sequence. Subsequent operations in the same order structure will move closer to the reported operation in order to fill any capacity gaps which occur immediately after the reported operation.
• For project connected shop orders, the Labor Time and Setup Labor Time will be reported to the project as actual hours according to the project cost elements that have been defined in the posting control setup.
