How to add operations to a calculation

A calculation is filled with material and operations to ensure a well-founded quote price. This article explains how to add one or more operations to a calculation. One of these operations is an outsourcing.

 


 

Once you have taken a sales quote line into calculation, the calculation is created, and you can add material and operations to the calculation. You provide each operation with setup time and operation time. Outsourcing is also an operation. Follow the steps below to add operations, including an outsourcing.

 

 

Step 1: Open the calculation

 

Search and select the calculation you want to add material to on the module start page. You will end up in the final product of the calculation.

 

 

Step 2: Go to the calculation semi-finished product

 

With a double-click before the line, you go to the calculation semi-finished product. You will then be on the 'Materials' tab. Now go to the 'Operations' tab.

 

 

Step 3: Create a calculation operation

 

Click on Calculation Operation

to create an operation line. Then double-click before the line to open it. You will end up in the operation line (calculation operation).

 

 

Step 4: Fill in the calculation operation

 

In this example, we work with the following data for a shaft with keyway:

 

Operation Setup Time Operation Time Man per Machine Net
Sawing Kaltenbach / 1000 0 min. 4 min. 1.00 -
OKUMA Macturn 350 W / 1200 60 min. 12 min. 0.80 -
Hermle B300U machining center / 1500 45 min. 8 min. 0.50 -
Harden / 6030 - - - € 8.00

 

First, select the Operation. You can search by operation name, operation code, or machine name. Then enter the Setup Time, the Operation Time, and the ratio Man per Machine.

 

 

Step 5: Save the changes

 

Click on Save

.

 

Note!
Repeat the above steps for each subsequent operation you want to add.

 

 

Step 6: Add an outsourcing

 

In MKG, an outsourcing is also an operation. When adding an outsourcing, proceed as follows: go to the Operation field and select the operation. MKG recognizes this operation as an outsourcing. Enter the net price per piece in the Net Price field.

 

 

Step 7: Navigate to the calculation

 

Navigate to the Calculation. The operations have been added to the calculation. You can now finalize the calculation.
