Field help (BOMOFS1)

The operation lead-time is used during launch and in the MRP calculations. It is used to calculate the date of the component (material) requirement with respect to the production start date of the parent product.

It is expressed in calendar days. You can enter a negative value.

Example: A work order has a start date of the 26/06:

• If the operation lead-time is 7 days, the material requirement date will be calculated on the 03/07 (26/06 + 7);
• If the operation lead-time is -7 days, the material requirement date will be calculated on the 19/06 (26/06 - 7).
