If you select the Override Employee Cost check box, it indicates that the labor cost for the transaction will be fetched from the labor class on the shop order operation, for the reported time type (i.e., setup or run). If this check box is not selected, the cost will be fetched either from HR or from the labor class that the employee belongs to.
  7. If you select the Default Time and Quantities on Report check box in Site/Extended Site Info/Manufacturing tab, the system will suggest the quantity and time to be reported when approving shop order operations in Shop Floor Workbench.
