Calculating Operational Definitions

Access the Define Operations form.

Representative Item Number

Enter the product that represents the other products that share the process for which you are calculating the operational definition.

Operational Index

Defines the time that is available in an operation within a process. It is calculated by dividing actual time (from the sequence of events) by the number of operations that are calculated in line design.

Tolerance Percent

Enter the tolerance value that enables you to exceed the calculated operational index value by the stated percentage when grouping operations. This value is supplied by default from the line design control parameters that are set up for the scenario, but you can override it here to balance actual time to the operational index.

Cal. Basis (calculation basis)

Specify which sequence of events to use as a basis for calculating the operational definition. Values are:

OD: Operational definition.

PM: SOE from PMap.

These values are stored in the Op Def Calculation Basis UDC table (F30L/OC).

Calculate and Save Detail
