Re: Machine time in PMC Version 2

Sorry, I misstated what we do, here's the updated version.

We handle it two ways, for outside heat treat it is TBC 'C',
but for internal heat treat we use TBC 'H'.

In the shop the operator clocks on, then off when starting.
When the process is finished, the operator clocks on, then off (complete).
We have a value in the Std Run Machine, but not in the Std Run Labor.
After all MRP needs something to plan around.

PMC won't show the on time total, but is it really necessary?  The Start 
Date, and complete
xaction will give you touch time (processing time).

We do something similar  with transactions for receiving insp as well.

[MAPICS-L] Machine time in PMC






Group
I am looking for input in this:
How do you do posting machine time for a MO operation that lasts longer 
then
24 hours?
Currently we do heat treatment of our parts in a oven that lasts for 7 
days.
If we JOB ON (We are using Paperless for the shop floor interface)
to the bake operation and the parts are in the oven, the next day
when we go to do the Select and Edit Tranactions process in PMC, we
get a JOB OFF missing error on the report. I understand from Mapics 
support,
PMC can only handle labor or machine time of less then 24 hours for a 
given
Selection period.
So I guess my question is: how do you account for machine time that is
greater
then 24 hours?

Thanks
