Work Center Allocation Tab
The Work Center Allocation tab can be used to view a graphical representation of a plant. This representation includes the following.
• The assembly and feeder lines used in production
• The work centers and stations within your plant
• The operations that have been localized to a particular geographical area, such as a plant, work center or work station.
• Costing branches for alternative production methods, such as when the quantity to be produced affects the work centers to be used.
• Work center groups created for the plant.
From the Work Center Allocation tab you can:
• Allocate operations to work centers by using drag and drop functionality
