Open the Operations panel in Product Specification window. Below you can observe the following two tabs, that is, Data where you can add operations and the Manufacturing Time tab. The Manufacturing Time panel displays additional information about operations. Displaying operations you can also view optimum quantity and set active alternate.

Set the two parameters in the upper section when trying to calculate manufacturing time:
Quantity for Calculation
|
Enter quantity for calculation in order to calculate corresponding manufacturing time. Entered value must be greater than 0. The value 1 is used in case the optimum quantity be equal to the one entered. The optimum quantity for calculation set in product specification is default. |
Take Into Account Set-up Time
|
If checked, set-up time determined for operations will be used in calculating manufacturing time. The default parameter value depends on whether you have checked Take into Account Set-Up Time in the Administration Panel. |
