JC-H  Print Work Order History

Purpose of Program

Use this report to get historical comparisons within specific labor sequences across different work orders.  For example, you might want to see the last several times sequence number 10 was performed for a particular product.  This is most often used to help set labor standards within the Routings module.

Actual time/part and parts/hour are compared with current standards.  Averages are calculated for all records within the report selection range.  The labor and setup standards within the Routings module can then be automatically updated with the results of this report.

General Program Operation

First, indicate whether to report on Active or Archived work orders.  Then, select a range of item numbers, dates, and sequences.  You can choose to print transaction detail or summary only.

First, run the report with the Update Master Routing and Update Setup set to N.  Then, if you are satisfied with the results, you can run the same filters again with the Update flags set to Y and the Routing labor and setup standards will be changed to match the actuals from the report.  It is important to run BM-G  Print/Rollup Standard Costs to recalculate the standard costs of the items after the routing time standards are updated.
