ETC Hours Display |
|
The ETC Hours Display (Estimate to Complete) shows the work assigned to resources, pools, or departments from the current schedule start date out a given number of months. When the ETC Hours Display appears, information is not displayed until the Search button is pressed. The display can be dependent of the selections made in Manufacturing Orders Job Grid if the Use Mfg Orders Job Grid Selections is checked, or selections can be made using the Job Selections button.
Job Selections are made to get a subset of work (projects) using the Job Identification and/or the Part Number. The entered job identification and/or part number to search for will be displayed above the grid after the Search button is pressed.
When the ETC Hours Display is selected, an empty grid appears as in the example below. The first month in the column is the month of the last scheduled start date. In the example below, the schedule was run with a schedule start in the month of August:
