| # Possible values Best Fit LN reduces the queue times of the operations to fit the new production dates that you specify in the current session. This method works by making an estimation of the percentage by which the queue times must be evenly reduced to fit the new production dates. The estimation can be repeated several times until the production time fits the modified dates. You must specify the maximum number of times the procedure is repeated in the Max. No. of Queue Time Compression Iterations field of the Shop Floor Control Parameters (tisfc0100s000) session. A queue time's compression by a specific percentage can yield a decimal, for example 1.88 hours or 1.88 days. If the the queue time is expressed in days, a decimal is not allowed. Therefore, the number is rounded down to the nearest whole number. After rounding down, a check is carried out to see whether modified production dates are already met. If this is true, the process stops. The queue time is approximately reduced by the percentage that you specify in the Targeted Compression % field of the Automated Queue Time Compression (tisfc1103s000) session. Targeted Percent LN reduces the queue times of all the operations by the percentage that you specify in the Targeted Compression % field of the Automated Queue Time Compression (tisfc1103s000) session. That means that even if only 3% reduction is required, but you enter 100% in the Targeted Compression % field, the queue time is compressed by 100%. |
