Title: Labor not posting after latest upgrade
Post by Bill on 07/27/04 at 08:49:39

We enter our work order labor using WO-M. After we installed the latest upgrade late last week we have not been able to post labor to our production work orders. We find that when using WO-M we put in a start task and end task time but get no calculation of the total time spent on the task. It remains at zero. This function is working for work orders that are type I for Indirect. When we look at DC-D we see the start and stop time for the task but no calculation of the total time spent on the task was done. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? If so have you found a solution? Thank you, Bill

WO-M and Data Collection were actually fixed to correct a long standing problem but I suspect you are seeing a ripple effect of this fix. If a routing sequence is flagged Y for Standard Time, WO-F has always calculated a time based on the quantity of parts completed and the labor standard (time per part). This is by design and WO-M and DC were recently fixed to work the same way. However, this means that if your sequences are all coded for Standard Time and you aren't entering a quantity complete, you will see exactly what you are describing.

You need to use UT-K-B on the ROUTING, WOROUT and ROUTTEMP files and change the STD.TIME field from Y to N so you can enter actual times.
