| # Printing Relative Work Center Utilization The following terms can be found on the report: Basic Capacity (H/Wk) The capacity on a work center is Basic Week Capacity * Number of Operators or Number of Machines. The basic week capacity, the number of operators, and the number of machines are defined in the Work Centers (tirou0101m000) session. Available Capacity The hours that can be spent on the work center, based on the calendar, expressed as a percentage of the basic capacity. Actual Capacity The hours that are actually planned on the work center by man or machine, based on the production orders, expressed as a percentage of the basic capacity. Note If the number of operators and/or the number of machines is 0 in the Work Centers (tirou0101m000) session, the basic capacity is 0 in the report. Consequently, the actual capacity and the available capacity is 0 on the report. However, the number of operators and machines can also be defined on the routing operations in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session. If this is the case, capacity is in fact planned, although the value in the report is 0. This is indicated by an exclamation mark in the report (0!). If you select a main work center, its sub work centers are included. Their man and machine capacities are aggregated and expressed as the man and machine capacities of the main work center. Subcontracting work centers are indicated as such on the report. Example In the Work Centers (tirou0101m000) session the following data is defined: Basic Week Capacity: 40 hours/week Number of Operators: 3 Number of Machines: 0 Based on this data, a part of the report printed in the Print Relative Work Center Utilization (tisfc1404m000) session can look like this:
Work Ctr | Description | Man/Mchn | Basic Cap. (h/wk) | Actual/Avail. | Week 35 (%)
--- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
W31203 | Assembly | Man | 120 | Actual Capacity | 8
Available Capacity | 75
Machine | 0 | Actual Capacity | 0!
Available Capacity | 0
The basic capacity displayed on the report with regard to man: 40 * 3 = 120 hours/week. The basic capacity displayed on the report with regard to machines: 40 * 0 = 0 hours/week. If you suppose that the number of man hours that can be spend on the work center according to the calendar is 90 hours/week, then the percentage that expresses the available man capacity is: Available Capacity / Basic Week Capacity = 90 / 120 = 75%. If you suppose that the number of man hours spent on the work center on production orders is 10 hours/week, then the percentage that expresses the actual man capacity is: Total Hours / Basic Week Capacity = 10 / 120 = 8%. The percentage of the available machine capacity is 0 because the basic capacity is 0. The actual machine capacity is 0 because the basic capacity is 0. However, if machine capacity is defined on a routing operation instead of on the work center, capacity is in fact planned, although the value in the report is 0. This is indicated by the exclamation mark (0!). |
