Work and Routing Lines¶
Overview¶
The Work tab shows Capacity-type cost lines, auto-generated from the item's certified production Routing (or its active Routing Version) — one line per routing operation.
How routing cost is calculated¶
For each operation, the app computes capacity cost the same way Business Central computes standard routing cost: run time plus setup time, multiplied by the work or machine center's unit cost. If the work center is configured with Specific Unit Cost, a flat subcontracted price is used instead of time-based cost.
Routing line fields¶
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Capacity Type / Capacity Center | The work center or machine center performing the operation. |
| Description | The operation description. |
| Setup / Run / Wait / Move Time | Time components from the routing. |
| Unit of Measure / Unit Cost / Line Amount | The cost math for the operation. |
| Vendor No. | Relevant for subcontracted operations. |
| Activity Type | Classifies the type of routing activity. |
| Routing Link Code | Links the operation to a specific BOM line, matching standard BC routing/BOM behavior. |
Adjusting routing costs¶
You can manually adjust times or costs on a routing line if needed. Changes automatically refresh the Total Capacity Cost on the calculation header, which cascades into the Sales Price and Calculation Factor — see Setting the Sales Price.
