Creating a Resource Design

Access the Add Resource Design Detail form.

Process

Displays the process that is required to produce the item.

Resource

Displays the type of resource, labor or machine, that is assigned to each process.

Resource Utilization Type

Indicates whether a resource is shared or dedicated. If the resource is shared, the resource simulation calculates available resources by resource type, based on the aggregated current quantities of all resources of this resource type. The default value is Shared. The values for this field are stored in the Utilization Type user-defined code table (F34R/UT).

Current Quantity

Defines the actual number of resources that are available for a process. This number appears by default from the design quantity. You can change this value to reflect the actual resource situation for labor or machines for the processes on the line.

Design Quantity

You define this quantity by resource type in the Designed Machines or Designed Labor Operations field in the Mixed Model Line Design program (PF30L910).

Productive % Hours

Adjust this value to reflect the actual productivity of the resources. The default value is 100%.
