The following values are possible:
- Proportional: the production time is proportional to the released quantity. It is expressed in hours and minutes (based on the time unit) for a given number of units (based on the management unit and basic quantity).
With a proportional time type, the production time is entered in the operation time section and the rate section cannot be assigned. - Rate: the production time is proportional to the released quantity. The rate is used to express the time in number of units per hour or minute, depending on the time unit.
With a rate time type, the production time is entered in the rate section and the operating times, management unit and basic quantity cannot be entered. - Fixed: the production time is independent of the released quantity. This time is expressed in hours or in minutes depending on the management unit.
With a fixed time type, the production time is entered in the operating time section and the management unit, basic quantity and rate cannot be entered.
