Assembly Hours (bptmm1160m000)

Use this session to register hours spent on assembly orders. You can either register hours on individual assembly orders, or on a clustered line station order. In the Assembly Control Parameters (tiasc0100m000) session, the Transaction Processing parameter must be set to Line Station Based.

The hours input comes from:

  • Assignments
    From the appropriate menu, select Use Assignments. See also the Assignments (bpmdm0130m000) session.
  • Manual entry
    Click the New button on the toolbar or, from the File menu, select New.
  • Global registration of hours
  • Distributing team hours
Note
  • If you use a working time schedule code, you can enter an amount of hours in the details session. These hours are distributed according to the labor types specified in the Working Time Schedule (tcppl1100m000) session.
  • If you do not want to distribute hours, leave the Working Time Schedule field empty. Then, the labor type from the transaction type data is defaulted.
