Process Routes: Parent Lead Time Adjustment

Parent Lead Time Adjustment

Parent Lead Time Adjustment

This window is opened then you operate the Masters — Process Routes — Parent Lead Time function having selected a parent in the Process Route Maintenance window. You can change the parent part lead time to the sum of the process route operations times (rounded up to the nearest working day).

The operation times are calculated into days by using the respective work centre available hours per day. This provides for quick adjustment of parent part lead time which is used in MRP processing. There is also a Global Change function that can be used to auto-calculate lead times for a range of parent parts (see the Parts Global Lead Time Auto-Calculate window topic for details).
