Specifies information about your machine centers.
Managing capacities is an important part of managing the manufacturing process of the company. You use the Machine Center 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 center must also have an identifying number. When you enter the machine center number elsewhere in the program, the program will automatically use information from the Machine Center Card window of that machine center. From a machine center card, click Related Information and then point to Mach. Ctr. to view:
-
Capacity ledger entries for the machine center
-
Comments for the machine center
-
Machine center load
-
Machine center statistics
All machine centers must be set up in this table.
