Run Times & Corrections¶
Overview¶
The OPC Run Times table is the engine behind operation registration. Each start and stop time-stamp becomes a run-time record before it posts to the standard Capacity Ledger Entry. This guide explains the run-time and capacity views that supervisors use, and how to correct a posted capacity ledger entry.
Run Times¶
Every time an operator starts and stops time on an operation, OPC writes a run-time. Open OPC Run Times (an administration list) to review them.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Entry No. | The run-time identifier. |
| Prod. Order No. | The production order. |
| Operation No. | The operation. |
| Machine Center | The resource. Locked once set. |
| Starting Date / Starting Time | When time started. |
| Ending Date / Ending Time | When time ended. |
| Finish Now | Marks the run-time to close and post. |
| Posted | Whether the run-time has posted to the capacity ledger. |
| Stop Code | The indirect time code, for indirect time run-times. |
| Gross Operation Time | The total registered time. |
| Adjustment Factor | The factor used to distribute time across concurrent operations. |
Capacity Ledger Entries¶
Time and output post to the standard Capacity Ledger Entry. Open OPC Capacity Ledger Entry List to review them:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Order No. | The production order. |
| Posting Date | When the entry posted. |
| Starting Time / Ending Time | The registered window. |
| Run Time | The adjusted run time. |
| Run Time Unadjusted | The run time before concurrency adjustment. |
| Stop Time | Stop time on the entry. |
| Quantity | The output quantity. |
| Stop Code | The stop/indirect code. |
The OPC Capacity Ledger Entry matrix view shows entries by period. Use View By and the previous/next set actions to change the period.
Correcting a Capacity Ledger Entry¶
Supervisors can correct a posted entry — for example, a wrong run time — from the OPC Capacity Ledger Entry List:
Correct with a dialog¶
- Select the entry.
- Choose Correction.
- The Correct Capacity Ledger Entry dialog shows the Old Value and a New Value field.
- Enter the corrected value and confirm. OPC posts the correction.
Correct in a journal¶
- Select the entry.
- Choose Correct in Journal.
- OPC adds a reversing line to the capacity or output correction journal for review and posting.
The correction journals and the Open Journal Page After Correction option are configured in Setup.
