| # Place and functions of operations To manufacture an item, a series of operations must be performed. The sequence order of such operations is called a routing in LN. The Routing module lets you: define routings for standard items. define item-independent routing (that is, a standard routing). define multiple routings for an item. define an order quantity for each routing. determine the work center (that is, the bottleneck work center) that governs the production rate of repetitive items. calculate the production rate. Routings are important for production order planning in the Order Planning module of Enterprise Planning, and in the Shop Floor Control module and the Cost Price Calculation module. You can define both standard routings and item routings. Item routings can refer to standard routings. For each item, you can record multiple routings. |
