Overview

Resource List: A Resource List and a summary of all the resources and their allocated capacity on the daily basis, including the setup and break down time. This list gives you the entire summary of resources that you created an then allocated each process to a resource. The Labour Rate Hourly and Overhead Rate Hourly can also been seen in this Resource List.

Ways Resource List can be Manipulated:

From the Resource List screen you can create a new resource as well by clicking on the New tab at the bottom of the screen. Clicking on this screen will open the resource creation screen.

How to create New Resource: On this screen following options are available.

  • Resource Name - the unique identifier for the resource.
  • Description - you can further describe the resource here.
  • Setup Time - the number of hours to set up the resource each day before starting the process.
  • Breakdown Time - the number of hours per day to break down or shut down the resource.
  • Hourly Labour Rate - the labour rate you offer on this resource to workers or employees.
  • Hourly Overhead Rate - the extra expense or overhead incurred in this resource on hourly basis. For example, Electricity for electronic cutters.
  • Capacity - I available on daily basis from Sunday to Saturday. You can mark active by clicking on your production day and inactive on the days the production is not done. You can enter the total capacity hours for a resource and can also mention the start time for each day. Capacity is usually calculated on the number of hours and the employees. For Example, in the Cutting Resource two workers work 8 hours a day from Monday to Friday. The capacity would then be for Cutting resource is 2 x 8 = 16 hours daily. In simple words, the number of hours per day that the resource is available. Capacity time is in hh:mm:ss.
