Understanding Resource Units Automatic Generation

Run the Work Center Resource Units Generation program (R3007G) to automatically recalculate the work center hours. You can view the results in the Work Center Resource Units program or on the Work Center Resource Unit Revision form (W3007B). You can also change values on the Work Center Resource Unit Revision form.

You should run this program whenever you revise the hours per day on the Manufacturing Constants Revision form, the number of machines in a work center, or the number of employees who are assigned to a work center. You can also run the program to define resource units for specific time periods.

The system recalculates the resource units for a work center based on:

  • Hours per day in the F30006 table.

  • Shop floor calendar.

  • The F3009 table.

    Important: Based on effectivity dates, the system overwrites any manual changes that you make to the units on Work Center Resource Units when you run Work Center Resource Units Generation.
