Lead times in ManufacturingIn LN, the lead time is the time to produce an item, from the production start date till the delivery date. Lead times are used for production planning purposes in Enterprise Planning and Manufacturing. Lead time elements The lead time consists of the following lead time elements: Operation lead time In Manufacturing, you can define lead time elements for every routing operation. LN uses the lead time elements to calculate the operation lead time. LN defaults the queue time, wait time, and move time in the Job Shop Routing Operations (tirou4101m000) session from the Work Centers (tirou0101m000) session. You can change the defaulted values in the Job Shop Routing Operations (tirou4101m000) session. Production order lead time LN calculates production-order lead times by adding up all operation lead times. If operation overlap takes place because transfer batch quantities are defined, LN uses more complex calculations to determine lead times and production order planning. For more information, refer to Production order lead-times (transfer batch quantity).
