Definition: work center in SAP PP Module

Logistics - General (LO)
Organizational unit that defines where and by whom an operation is performed.
The work center has an available capacity. The activities performed at or by the work center are valuated by
charge rates, which are determined by cost centers and activity types. Work centers can be:
• Machines
• People
• Production lines
• Groups of craftsmen
WhatsApp 923233368175
Work Center Category

Key which distinguishes the work centers by their category (for example, production work center, maintenance
work center).
Object Name
Contains a brief description of an object (for example, an organizational unit).
WhatsApp 923233368175
Person Responsible for the Work Center

The person or group of people who are responsible for the maintenance of the work center master files.
Work center location

Key which describes the physical location of the work center.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Subsystem Identifier for QM Subsystem Interface

Logical description of an external system (non-SAP system, subsystem, QDE system) with which quality data
from a quality inspection can be exchanged.
Production Supply Area

The production supply area (PSA) serves as a place for interim storage on the shop floor and is used to make
material directly available for production purposes.
The PSA is used in Kanban and JIT Outbound processing and in Extended Warehouse Management.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Key for task list usage

Key to control in which type of task list you can use: operating resources (for example, work centers or
production resources/tools).
Indicator: Backflushing
Indicates that material components are backflushed.
Use
WhatsApp 923233368175
Each material component is allocated to an operation in the production order. If a material component is
backflushed, the system automatically posts the withdrawal when the operation is confirmed.
Standard Value Key

Key defining and giving a dimension (for example, time or area) to one of up to six standard values.
Control key
Determines which business transactions should be executed for the object that belongs to the task list or order
(for example scheduling or costing).
WhatsApp 923233368175
Suitability
Key for the suitability required for carrying out the operation (for example, welding certificate or NC
programming course).
Setup Type Key

Key that specifies who sets up a work center (for example, machine servicer, setup person or a setup crew).
The value from the work center is the default in the routing.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Wage type
Key which specifies the wage type (for example, piecework wage or premium wage). The wage type is used as
a criterion for calculating the wage or salary of an employee.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Wage Group
Specifies the wage group to be used (for example, those employees with short-term training or several weeks
of training). The wage group is used as a criterion for valuating the work.
Number of Time Tickets

Number of time tickets to be printed for an operation or activity (PS).
Dependencies
This entry is only taken into account if time tickets are to be printed according to the operation control key.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Number of Confirmation Slips

Number of confirmation slips to be printed for an operation or an activity.
Capacity category
Key which describes capacity in more detail. The capacity category enables you to determine whether it is
machine or labor capacity.
Use
WhatsApp 923233368175
Define capacity bu double click o mouse on capacity

Capacity Responsible Planner Group
Key referring to the capacity planner group, which is responsible for planning this capacity
Grouping for Shift Definitions and Shift Sequences

Number identifying a grouping.
Use
You can use a grouping to create shift sequences and shift definitions for special areas (for example, different
plants or different areas of a plant) and select them when maintaining the available capacities of work centers.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Capacity Utilization Ratio in Percent

The relationship (expressed in percent) between a machine´s actual capacity and it´s theoretical capacity.
Enter the average capacity utilization rate of all machines providing that capacity during the shift.
Number of Individual Capacities

Number of elements which make up a capacity group.
Examples
For example, a group made up of 5 machines has 5 elements.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Capacity Base Unit of Measure

Unit in which available capacity is maintained. A typical unit is "hours".
Factory Calendar ID
Two-place ID to identify the factory calendar
WhatsApp 923233368175
Active Version of Available Capacity

With this number you can identify the active version of available capacity.
The active version is always the capacity in the screen with header data
Start Time
Start of the shift.
WhatsApp 923233368175
End Time
End of the shift.
Cumulative length of breaks per shift

Total break time per shift.
If you enter a shift sequence you will get the length of the breaks which the system assigned from the break
intervals.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Operating time in hours

Operating time of the capacity within a time period (for example, per shift or per day). Operating time is defined
in hours.
Formula for Setup Capacity Requirements

Formula used to determine the capacity requirements for setup.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Formula for Processing Capacity Requirements

Formula used to determine the capacity requirements for processing.
Formula for Teardown Capacity Requirements

Formula used to determine the capacity requirements for teardown.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Formula for Other Capacity Requirements

Formula used to calculate capacity requirements for other types of internal processing (for example, in
networks or in maintenance orders).
Distribution of capacity requirements (Planned/prod.order)

Determines the distribution of capacity requirements for an operation over the periods of the operation duration
for the following orders:
• production order
• planned order
WhatsApp 923233368175
The capacity requirement of an operation for these orders is the sum of the capacity requirements in the
operation segments setup, processing and teardown.
Distr.cap.reqmts (plant maint.,process order, network)

Determines the distribution of capacity requirements for an operation over the periods of the operation duration
for the following orders:
• networks (internal activities)
• process orders
• maintenance orders
The capacity requirements of an operation for these orders are not derived from the operation segments.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Scheduling – view
Formula for setup time

Formula used in scheduling to calculate the setup time of an operation
WhatsApp 923233368175
Formula for the duration of processing time

Formula used in scheduling to determine the operation processing time.
Formula for teardown time

Formula used in scheduling to determine teardown time in an operation.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Formula for the duration of other types of int. processing

Formula for calculating the duration times of other types of internal processing in scheduling (for example, in
networks, in process orders or in maintenance orders).

Costing – view
Definition: cost center
Controlling (CO)
An organizational unit within a controlling area that represents a defined location of cost incurrence.
The definition can be based on:
• Functional requirements
• Allocation criteria
WhatsApp 923233368175
• Physical location
• Responsibility for costs
Activity overview
Overview – technology
Machine Type
Key which combines work centers that have the same technical data (for example, drills or lathes).
WhatsApp 923233368175
Sort string
String which you can use to sort CAPP elements or search for them
CAPP planner group

Key which identifies a person or group of people responsible for maintaining CAPP elements and technical data
in work centers.
WhatsApp 923233368175
Key: rounding and additional values

Key which specifies the rounding categories and the additional values to be taken into account when standard
values are calculated for an operation.
Use
Using this key, you can assign a rounding category and an additional value percentage to each of the standard
values in a work center.
