Process

Use these processing options to designate the number of periods, to select a default period type, to enter the supply and demand inclusion rules, to update the work order assigned to field, and to determine the operation status completion code.

1. Number of Periods

Specify the number of periods to calculate availability and assignment load. The periods are expressed as days or weeks based on the Period Type field.

Note: If this processing option is set beyond 52, the system uses 14.

2. Period Type

Specify the period type to use to group the display of assigned hours and capacity hours for a resource. UDC 48/PT (Period Types) will be used to select values. The default value is Blank: Days.

3. Set Default for Supply/Demand Inclusion Rules

Specify the default value from UDC 40/RV.

4. Update Work Order Assigned To Field

Specify whether the system will automatically update the Assigned To field on the work order header when the Resource Assignments program is run. The system will also update the Assigned To field when it is blank or when you change the assignment resource number, which is the same as the number on the work order. Values are:

Blank: Do not update.

1: Update.

5. Operation Completion Status

Specify the operation completion status that the system uses to update the labor detail step when it is completed. Select the default value from UDC 31/OS (Operation Status).

Note: This processing option applies only when you assign resources at the work order level.
