Setting Up Predefined CRO Work Scope--Exercises

IMPORTANT
It is extremely important that you set up and work within your own site to maintain you data integrity. If you work within any other site, you will compromise your own exercise data as well as the data of other students. Predictable exercise results require that your data be isolated in your own site.

Your site XX-17 Chain Saw Repair Shop Internal work center 500 100 Hour 0 Hour
Your site XX-18 Testing Internal work center 200 50 Hour 0 Hour

General exercise for Setting up Work Centers, Production Lines, Labor Classes, and Manufacturing Tools

Labor Class

Purpose: The purpose of this exercise is to create the labor classes which will perform the work scope for the part. Different labor classes could be needed to divide employees into groups. One group could be responsible for the performance of the service, while another could handle functional testing of the part after completion.

Windows:
Manufacturing Labor Class

Note: If you already have an appropriate labor class, use that one instead.

  1. Open the Manufacturing Labor Class window.
  2. Create a labor class with the information given below.
