Usage

Use this window to enter and revise data for work centers. The information that you enter for work centers is used when you work with operations, shop orders, master scheduling, material requirements planning (MRP), resource requirement planning (RRP), and cost estimates. Work centers are used when you enter operations, so they must be entered before operations. The work center is also a resource that can be used, eg., in project planning and maintenance.

Note: If IFS/Purchasing is not installed, then you cannot create outside work centers.

For a description of each tab in the window, follow the appropriate link: Detail, Cost, Resource, WC Capacity, Routings, Routing Templates, Std Operations, Location, Utilization Statistics, Characteristics, Emissions, RRP Capacity, RRP Routings.
