An activity to manufacture or repair an item. For example, sawing, drilling, or painting.
A task is carried out on a work center, and can be related to a machine.
Setup Classes and States by Work Center/Task (tirou0112m000)Use this session to match a product feature/option combination with a setup class and setup state. This match is linked to a specific combination of a task and a work center. Matching product features/options with setup classes and setup states is useful if you want to use setup optimization to minimize setup times for configured items.
Task An activity to manufacture or repair an item. For example, sawing, drilling, or painting. A task is carried out on a work center, and can be related to a machine. Work Center A specific production area consisting of one or more people and/or machines with identical capabilities, that can be considered as one unit for purposes of the capacity requirement planning and detailed scheduling. Product Feature Characteristics which can be combined and subsequently be linked to configurable items to compose a product variant. An example of a feature is color. Option Options per product feature are aspects that specify the product feature. For instance 'red' can be an option of the feature 'color'. Setup Class A type of item characteristic that indicates how a machine must be set up to produce the item. The setup class determines the changeover time for a machine or a tool between two operations. A setup class consists of a series of setup states. Example Examples of setup classes are color and thickness. If your setup class is color, the setup states can be red, green, white, black, and so on. Setup State An item's characteristic that is linked to an operation. Depending on the setup states of two successive operations, a machine's changeover takes longer or less long. A series of setup states form a setup class. Example If your setup class is color, examples of setup states are red, green, white, black, and so on.
