Resource

Have you added the process step to a resource?

A Production Resource can be a person, a piece of equipment or a workspace. Work Processes are allocated to a resource
which ensures that processes are not scheduled at a time when there are insufficient resources to complete them.

How to use Production Resource

Select the Manufacturing tab
Select the Resource Tab (to create a new Resource) or Resource List to view/edit an existing resource
Fields available are:
Resource Name - the unique identifier for the resource
Description
Capacity Hours - the number of hours per day that the resource is available
Setup Hours - the number of hours to set up the resource each day (not including process specific setup time)
Breakdown Hours - the number of hours per day to break down or shut down the resource
Hourly Labour Rate
Hourly Overhead Rate
Resource Process Steps - add here all of the processes that can be allocated to the resource.

Resource Unavailability allows you to schedule downtime for resources such as for regular maintenance, leave time for key
personnel etc. This ensures that you don't schedule a process that is unable to be performed. eg. Don't schedule welding on a
day when your only qualified welder is on leave.

How to use Resource Unavailability

From Main Menu select Manufacturing
Select Resource Unavailability
You will now see a list of Resources that have periods of unavailability scheduled

Significant information on this page is the Time Start and Time End which describes the period of unavailability and Description
which is the reason for unavalability. Other columns are general information about the resource.

How to Schedule a Resource unavailability

From Resource Unavailability List select NEW
Select Name of Resource from Drop Down list
Select Dates resource will be unavailable
Enter a description of why the resource is unavailable
