Workstation hours vis a vis Product order

[Vishwa]

Hello,
While I was submitting a production order i got the following msg “Operation Forging longer than any available working hours in workstation
Forging, break down the operation into multiple operations”
I assumed that wen the working hours of a particular workstation are less than the working hours required by the production order than the order should be carried forward to another day because if this does not happen than execution of a big production order will have to be separated, resulting into duplication of work.
Kindly look into the matter and reply,
Thank You,
Vishwa

V5 - Logic Around Production Order, Operations & Workstation

Let’s take a simple BOM with one operation and one workstation. Let’s say the operation takes 5 minutes for each part. Which means that 12 parts can be manufactured in an hour, Let’s say the working hours of the workstation is 9am-5pm which is 8 hours, which means that 96 parts can be manufactured in a day. Is the logic such that a Production Order for greater than 96 parts will get this error? If you or somebody understands the logic with which it is set up, would you please share that here…

You can also disable this check by enabling overtime in manufacturing settings.
