INSTRUCTIONS
By selecting new values from the OPERATING CONDITIONS slider boxes, you can
make changes in forecasted sales volume, required customer service level,
working hours, machine uptime, total changeovers, total cycle times, and outside
processing lead time - or any combination of these! You will then see the impact of
your changes on inventory turns and output per hour.
Then, set the schedule for the next production cycle by selecting a value from the
WEEKS TO COVER slider box so that the total SCHEDULE approximates the total of
the AVERAGE ORDER QUANTITIES (one production cycle).
