capacities and concurrent capacities

Hi ,

What is difference between capacities and concurrent capacities in Machine centre card ?

What is the meaning of Efficiency ?

Is there any chance to increase cost of produced item based on capacities, Efficiency ?

If it yes . Just throw suitable example .

Thanks and regards

Concurrent capacities allows the reduction of time in scheduling, so if you have an operation taking 60 minutes but a concurrent factor of 4 the time scheduled is 15 minuttes.

Efficiency relates to the time again - how efficient is the work centre? If it is 75% efficient then a job taking 60 minutes will actually need 75 minutes to complete due to the inefficiencies

Hi -

This maybe an old post but I have a similar question but related to costing. We have set the concurrent capacity to shorten the production lead time. Is this affecting the standard cost calculation of the item?

Thanks!

No.
