Lead Times on Manufactured Items

Have you tried something simple like adding queue time to the final
assemble. See what your shift hours are set to for that work center then
multiply it times the number to days you want the assemble to be ready for.
(8 hour shift times 3 day = 24 queue hours). The inverse also works for move
hours.

We are manufacturing sub-assemblies which contain manufactered and
purchased parts. The sub-assemblies need to be completed a number of
days prior to the final assembly of the finished product. Where can
this "lead time" be defined in the system. We are running 6.00.5x
with progress 9.1d. We have already tried using the "lead time"
check box at the part maintenance screen and tested the days of
supply. Neither of these appear to work to accomplish this lead time.

You may have to use a workcenter's queue hours and/or move hours. I put 24
queue hours ahead of my saw workcenter in order to get barstock scheduled to
arrive 3 days prior to use.
