Realizing machine hours
Introduction
Machine
hours are the activities of machines used in production and is measured in hours. Planned machine capacity can differ from actual machine capacity used.
Therefore, the actual machine hours used is realized or processed to reflect the actual cost of production. When you realize or process the machine hours, it
allows the consumption of hours to be registered in the system, thus creating a financial entry or realization of the machine hours.
Machine
hours can be registered the same way as you register labor hour. It is important to register which machine is used, what activity was performed, when, for how
long, and for which production project the machine has been used for. You can manually enter this information at Assets/Entries/Machine hours. Otherwise, machine hours
are usually automatically realized when a production order (with machine hours)
is issued.
This
can be done in the following modules:
- E-Production
in
combination with E-Assets, or
- E-Assets
in combination with E-Project.
