Navigate to Manufacturing > Routings. To add a routing, select the Add button and then you'll add in the operation name, the work center that it occurs at, and you'll select the duration in minutes. Then you will select whether it's computed based on real time or if you want to set the duration manually. You can set the duration manually in minutes or compute based on real time, which means that it will be based on the number of work orders and hours associated with the work and manufacturing orders.
Then you'll select the work center and you'll select when to start the next operation (once all products are processed or once some of the products are processed), and if you select “some of the products are processed” you'll have to select the quantity and the order which this will occur in and provide a detailed description. You can also attach any files as you see fit, and then you'll be able to Save the data and select Close to go back to your routing summary page. If any time you want to edit your routing, simply select the edit button that will appear when you hover over the routing name on the routing summary page.
Once you have all of your routing set up, you'll be able to see what employees have to do at each stage and understand how long your production processes takes which will overall allow you to understand your labor costs and how that relates to the production of products and will be great for tracking shifts as having this setup allows you to figure out what shift is doing well, what shift is not, and look at ways into improving your productivity.
