With stopduration calculation you can determine the duration of an individual stop (1 or more activities) more accurately. You do this in a stopduration group
By setting up a handlingduration group, a stopduration group can be specified even further and can take into account, among other things, the number of pallets, kilos, loading meters, or product that is loaded or unloaded. A pallet of 100 kg is easier to load or unload than a pallet of 1000 kg.
In the handlingduration group you determine which list is used to calculate the stopduration accurately for a certain activity. This can be done per unit.
In the handlingduration group, you can also specify a minimum and maximum duration.
The total stopduration is calculated by increasing the listduration by the overhead duration from the stopduration group.
Example: Handling duration for 1 pallet loading is 5 minutes. Maximum duration is 30 minutes. Overhead timeduration is 15 minutes. 8 pallets are loaded. The table says 4 minutes per pallet for that. That's 32 minutes of loading time. However, the maximum duration is 30 minutes. Then the total stoptime becomes 30 + 15 (overhead) = 45 minutes.
In the Rules, you can specify what it should apply to: Company, Unit, Unit Group, Product, ProductGroup, Customer, Department, Unit kind and which Handling duration list is attached to it.
In the Handlingrule details you can enter the ‘from’ and ‘to’ numbers per unit.
In the Used in tab, you can see in which Stopduration group it is used and enter Activity kind, Region, Address and Plangroup.
In the Handlingduration lists, you can specify the timeduration for multiple units.
Loading 10 pallets takes less time in total than 10 times the loading time of 1 pallet.
You can enter the duration per unit or the total time. If it is entered per unit then put ‘Yes’ in the column Duration p/unit.
In the Used in tab, you can see in which Handlingduration group it is used and define Unit kind, Unit, Unit group, Product, Product group and Customer per group.
