Infor LX & BPCS Tip: Capacity Planning – Resource Requirements Reports

Resource Requirements Report (CAP260D) generates five capacity reports:

  • Labor Resource Requirements
  • Machine Resource Requirements
  • Setup Resource Requirements
  • Setup and Labor Requirements
  • Setup and Machine Requirements

The Labor Resource Requirement report lists requirements that are calculated from the run hours on each routing and the MRP/MPS demand in the Capacity Requirements Detail File (LCR). The calculation does not consider crew size.

The Machine Resource Requirement report lists machine hour requirements based on routings and the MRP/MPS demand in the Capacity Requirements Detail File (LCR).

The Setup Resource Requirements report lists setup labor requirements based on routings and the MRP/MPS demand in the Capacity Requirements Detail File (LCR).

The last two reports combine setup hours with labor hours and setup hours with machine hours to provide two separate reports that summarize the requirements by work center with totals by department. The system computes requirements similarly to the way it computes them on the other reports.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

For either file, you must specify a valid location code as defined in the Location Master File.

If the machine master locations are blank, then the work center locations are used. There are cases where you may want to do a combination between the two in defining the locations.

Let’s say the end item has one operation. The operation is at work center 510 and Machine A is in the work center. You have locations setup in both the Work center file and the Machine master File. You report 100 complete at the work center without specifying the machine.

In this case, the inventory will be processed based on the locations defined in the work center file. If the transaction included the machine number, then the locations in the machine file would be used.

In Infor LX, there are two ways to enter indirect labor. You can use either SFC600 or SFC650.

  • If you use SFC600 and enter a reason code for the indirect labor, the reason you entered is written to the Labor Ticket file.
  • If you use SFC650 and enter a reason code for the indirect, the reason code is not written to the labor Ticket file.

In either case, the reason code is not validated from the transaction file because there is no indirect transaction code. The indirect code that can be setup is machine downtime. If you need to validate and track indirect by reason and validate the reason code, then you may want to explore an MES solution that works with Infor LX.
