Non-Productive<br />

Labor Feedback<br />

(17.4)<br />

Hold. Indicates the operation is on hold. This status can only be set<br />

manually in Work Order Routing Maintenance.<br />

A blank status indicates an inactive operation. An operation’s status is<br />

blank when the work order routing is first exploded and remains blank<br />

until you record activity for it.<br />

Use Work Order Routing Maintenance to manually change an operation’s<br />

status, if required.<br />

Recording Nonproductive Labor<br />

Shop floor control functions let you record nonproductive or indirect<br />

labor for employees—for example, preventive maintenance and<br />

meetings—and downtime for work centers—for example, machine<br />

failures. Shop floor reports use this information when calculating<br />

utilization and efficiency.<br />

For nonproductive labor or downtime not associated with a specific work<br />

order, use Non-Productive Labor Feedback (17.4). Otherwise, record<br />

nonproductive labor and downtime using the Down Time field in standard<br />

labor feedback transactions.<br />

Nonproductive labor transactions reference reason codes set up in Reason<br />

Codes Maintenance (36.2.17) with a reason type of Down.<br />

Note Many types of nonproductive labor, such as paid vacations, paid<br />

holidays, and paid sick leave, should be handled in a payroll system.
