Specifies information about your machine centres.
Managing capacities is an important part of managing the manufacturing process of the company. You use the Machine Centre table to do this. This table contains information used by a range of facilities that can help you with your capacity requirements planning, for example, the available capacity, and the default values for process, setup, wait and move times.
Each machine centre must also have an identifying number. When you enter the machine centre number elsewhere in the program, the program will automatically use information from the Machine Centre Card window of that machine centre. From a machine centre card, click Related Information and then point to Mach. Ctr. to view:
-
Capacity ledger entries for the machine centre
-

-

-
Machine centre statistics
All machine centres must be set up in this table.
