Job labor is updated through the Work Center Schedule screen as job sequences are finished. Three options are available in the Job Labor Defaults screen that facilitate job labor entry.
Job Labor Defaults
Review the following settings in the Job Labor Defaults screen.
Setup
Unless you have a compelling reason for tracking actual setup hours, select the No Entry – Use Standard Hours option.
Completions
If you always complete all jobs for the total job quantity, you can select the Flag as Finished option to facilitate labor updating without the need to specify the completion quantity. If you have an environment where you finish jobs with quantities above and below the overall; Job quantity, you will want to clear the Flag as Finished option.
Standard Hours
Unless you have a compelling reason for tracking standard hours transactions to specific workers, clear the Worker Selection Required option to facilitate labor updating. Our recommendation is to focus on throughput and completions as sequences are finished. The requirement to choose an employee each time you report sequence completions can add friction to the process.
