Tooling resources are used to record and capture tooling costs when manufacturing an item. The Tooling resources list contains all currently configured tooling resources setup in the system.
Beneath the tooling grid there are 4 buttons:
Add: Add a new tooling resource.
Edit: Edit the selected tooling resource.
Copy: Copy the selected tooling resource.
Remove: Remove the selected tooling resource.
Note: The Remove button is disabled if the tooling resource is in use anywhere in the system.
The ‘Add/Edit/Copy Tooling Resource’ screens are identical and contain the following information:
Reference: The tooling reference. This is the reference used when entering a tooling resource onto an operation on a BOM, Quote, or Works Order. This field must be unique.
Description: The tooling description.
Quantity: Determines the number of times the tooling resource can be used on an operation, before requiring replacement.
Unit Cost: This is the unit cost associated with the tooling quantity of an operation to determine the tooling cost based on the costed quantity of a Bill of Material, when costing a Bill of Material.
Instructions: The default tooling resource instructions.
Press Save to save the new or amended resource to the database.
