Calculation for Total Product Cycle Time

The system also enables you to calculate total product cycle time (TPc/t) for the products that you included in the line design. If any inputs to the calculation have changed, the system runs the Calculate Total Product Cycle Time by Line Design batch program (RF30L921) to perform this calculation automatically when you close the Add Line Design or Edit Line Design form. If you do not want to run this batch program every time that you close the form after a change, use the program version with the processing option set not to perform the TPc/t calculation. You have to set a processing option for the batch program to determine the source for resource time information.

Note: When calculating total product cycle time, the system updates the FF30L501 table if the primary line that is defined in the FF30L501 table matches the item in the line design.
