Routings
The ordered operations and work centers a part flows through to get made.
A routing defines the ordered required to make a part and the assigned to each operation. A needs a routing for scheduling, run-time estimation, and costing.
Fields
FieldType
The step performed (its description, e.g. Cut, Weld, Inspect).
Where the operation runs; supplies the rates used for scheduling.
Fixed time to prepare the operation, independent of quantity.
Operator time per unit, in the operation's standard factor unit.
Machine time per unit, in the operation's standard factor unit.
Order of operations; lower runs first.
Per-revision routings
Routings are defined per item revision, so a design change doesn't rewrite history. Jobs built against an older revision keep the routing they were released with.
NOTE
A routing with no operations can't be scheduled — the job will sit in Planned until at least one operation exists.
