1.Should you have PMC the answer to this is is easy, just report start and stop times, PMC will take care of this by dividing the overlapping period by the number of simultaneous jobs when calculating 'time spent on a job'  If you don't have PMC you'll have to do this calculation manually

 

2. Actually somewhere during rel 5.5 there is a fix which will inhibit you of just continuing.  The neatest way is to change the routing (PCC maintenance).  This is also why it is best to number you operations 10, 20,... the 'holes in between' are sometimes needed for operations like this

Subject: PCC Questions

Dear All,

 

I have the following questions and would appreciate if anyone could shed some lights.

 

1. In my factory, some operators working on two or more machines simultaneously for separate MOs. How to report these activities to PCC, for example the labour hours and machine hours?

 

2. If a machine broke down and we have to switch the process to another machine, which may have different cycle time, how to report it to PCC?

 

FYI, we are running MAPICS XA R5.

 

Thank you and best regards,
