Parallel Operations

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by RHP 97

I have observed that there is a limit of 30 characters in the Next/Previous operation number column,   I am using machine operator and labour as work centers.

so each operation has 3 parallel operations.  if three there are more parallel operations the number gets multiplied by 3 and the space to mention the previous operations is falling short.  is there a way to increase it?

    Hello,

    if the field limit is getting short, you may need to customize it and extend it. Alternatively, you can ask if we can increase the field in standard via a support request.

    Thanks.

    Hello. You can create an extension that increases the size of the field. Or you can write to Microsoft support to increase the size in the next release

    Best regards

    Thanks Malvasi,

    In the mean team I am trying a workaround by creating a dummy operation with zero time, immediate before the next operation  and some of the parallel 0peration will have this as the next operation whose next operation , the rest will jump to the actual next operation.

    Regards
