Hi All,
I have a question which is causing much debate with our AX2009 setup (manufacturing industry).
When creating a production route is it best practice to use the Quoted process time and resource qty and to measure performance on an ongoing basis by variance against the standard, or is it better to use actual process time and resource qty and get an absolute value which is measured against the business bottom line.
Currently we use actuals which is good from a capacity reservation point of view and maximising available capacity (we are below the quoted rates), however it means from a financial point of view we are using a variable rather than a standard model and therefore it is very difficult to measure variance.
I'm not sure if there is a correct answer to this, but would be interested in others opinions and set-up
Thanks
Mark
