| Movement time |
Indicate the movement time between the two work centers. If you require an operation to start on the same day as the preceding operation, then you can enter -999 as the movement time between work centers. This will, however, affect every operation moving between the designated work centers and should be used only with extreme caution. A negative move time entered against an operation cannot exceed the elapsed time currently defined against the operation. While this would work if fixed elapsed times are used, a larger than standard batch would cause the dynamic elapsed time to exceed the entered negative move. |
