Starting Setup Activities

Use the Start Setup form to start setup activities. Setup activity is the initial tasks that need be completed for an operation before production work can begin.

To start setup activity:

Open the Start Setup form.
Optionally, specify a date and time to record for this transaction. The current date and time is specified by default. You can only modify the date and time if your user ID has the appropriate authorizations on the User Extensions form.
Specify a job and job suffix. The item number and description are displayed.
Select the operation number for which you are starting setup activity. The work center where the operation will be performed is displayed.
If applicable, select Combine Labor and Machine Time to report machine time as a ratio of labor time for this activity. Clear this check box to report machine time manually in a separate transaction. If the Time Track module in Infor Factory Track is implemented, this check is only available if the Combine Labor and Machine Time check box is selected for your employee type on the Employee Types form.
If applicable, specify a machine ratio. The Machine Ratio field is only displayed if Combine Labor and Machine Time is selected and if the Time Track module in Infor Factory Track is implemented. The machine ratio determines what portion of the reported labor time will be reported for the machine. For example, a ratio of .5 will report half the reported labor time for the machine. If the Time Track module is not implemented and the Combine Labor and Machine Time check box is selected, machine time will be reported as a one-to-one ratio to labor time.
To start setup activity for the selected operation, select green process button. To close the form without starting setup activity, select the Close button.
