Re: cell scheduling

Jeff,

Have you looked at the Crew Clocking transaction in PMC?  This allows
for labor time to be calculated with machine time only being calculated
for the crew leader.

Refer to the PMC user's Guide for additional information.

Thanks

Subject: [MAPICS-L] cell scheduling

   We have several work cells where we will have multiple folks clocked
onto
   a single Shop packets, orders.  And we are trying to schedule with
PCC and
   resolve overloads with CRP.
    
    
   Example:  3 employees clock onto a job at 7 am and off at 9 am.
    
   This would accumulate 6 hrs of labor - and this is fine and reflects
   reality.
    
   The problem is the JOB also accumulates 6 hrs of machine time -  2
hrs per
   person.
    
   I need to be able to use machine hrs to schedule the cell - but the
JOB
   will only take 2 hrs.
    
   Anytime we have more then 1 person on a packet the machine hrs are
   inflated.
    
   This in turn inflates our averages and later standards .
    
   I was curious if others out there have solved this 'cellular'
scheduling
   issue.
    
   Any relief in PLMC, or rel 7 ?
    
   I appreciate any input
    
   Thanks
