Labor Analysis

You use this program to generate a variety of reports enabling you to analyze your labor transactions for a specific time period.

You can generate the report in up to 4 sequences at a time. A total of 16 sequences are available.

Report Options

Field Description
First report Indicate the first report you want to include in the labour analysis.

One of the following sequences can be selected:

  • Work center - Employee
  • Work center - Job
  • Work center - Machine

  • Work center - Operation

    If you select this option, then the program extracts the figures from the WIP Labor Journal file and accumulates them according to the operation number.

    This would typically be used in a fast moving consumer goods environment, where multiple end products all use the same routing.
