Load range
Allows to define the list of the load ranges of a site for each of the entities which brings about the workload in the workload analysis module (EI, EI Line, DO, DO line, parcel, SU, movement) also for the entity ‘item’
A load range corresponds to the calculation rules of the forecasted workload related to a given entity for each station.
Access to the function is conditioned by :
- the activity code LA0 (EI, EI Line, DO, DO line ranges)
- the activity code LA2 (parcel, SU, and movement ranges)
Prerequisite
Refer to documentation Implementation
Screen management
The screen is made up of a simple table.
Entry screen
Presentation
This screen allows to define the load ranges of a code, of a description and of a short description.
A load range is always associated to an entity.
The possible entities are : the EI, the EI Line, the DO, the DO line, the parcel, the SU, the movement (all types) and the item.
The trio (site/entity/load range) is unique.
For each type of entity, it is possible to define as much load ranges as possible necessary to include the different calculation rules of the workload of an entity according to its static characteristics and eventually to its status.
The load ranges associated to the items allows the regrouping of the items to be considered in an undifferentiated manner for the calculation of the workload associated to a DO line, to an EI line or to a movement.
Example
The workload of the EI for the receipt station can be calculated differently from the EI coming from the supplier and the EI corresponding to a client return.
Therefore, one should create two distinct ranges for the entities EI and EI line : a range ‘supplier receipt’ and a range ‘client return’.
Then associate the EI and the EI lines of the movement code « receipt » to the first range and that of the movement code « return » to the second thru the table of the determination of the EI and EI lines ranges.

Error messages
In addition to the generic error messages, the following messages can appear during the entry :
Error zone « Load range » : compulsory zone
The keying in of a load range is compulsory
Error zone « Load range » : couple of values exist already : line n°X
The couple (entity, load range) is unique for the given site
Error zone « Description » : compulsory zone
The keying in of a description for the load range is compulsory
