How Used

Select labor rate codes in these programs:

  • In the Standard Operation Maintenance (ROM), Routing Maintenance (RTM), and Configured Product Maintenance (MBM) programs, you can select labor codes for Setup labor cd field for regular, batch, and unattended operations, the Direct labor cd field for regular and batch operations, and the Indirect labor cd field for indirect operations.

  • In the Work Center Maintenance (WCM) program, you can select a code for the Machine lbr cd field that the system uses for an unattended operation.

When these programs encounter a labor rate code, the system obtains the corresponding rate from Standard Labor Rates Maintenance. The system uses this rate to calculate the standard labor cost for a manufacturing order.

Audit Trail

To activate an audit trail, select one of the files listed below in the Audit Trail Maintenance (XAT) program. The system records all transactions. You can then run the Audit Trails (ATR) program and select that file to print a report of these transactions.
