Wait Time Field

The Routing Line Table

Here you can enter the wait time according to the value in the Wait Time Unit of Measure field.

After an operation is completed, the wait time is the time that an item remains at a work or machine center until you can move it to the next operation.

Wait times are times, which occur, for example, due to drying processes or cooling.

Example:

If you select minutes in the Wait Time Unit of Measure field and you enter 5 here, this means that you determine a wait time of 5 minutes for this operation.

You can enter the required time in distinct values by using different time units of measure for, for example, run time and wait time.

The sum of the values in the Setup Time, Run Time, Wait Time and Move Time fields plus the Queue Time field on the relevant Machine or Work Center card combine to give the production lead time of the item.
