Assigning Setup Times to Resources

Trigger:

Concept
You can create a performance model for machine and resource setups to include time from one
setup to another, including the time required to perform the work. If one of your scheduling
objectives is to sequence or group jobs based on their required setup, you can also include a
penalty factor in the scheduling calculation.

Any two setup types within a resource can have a transition time and a transition penalty, which
means that the scheduler needs the specified time for transition from the former setup to the latter.

In this topic, you will assign setup times to resources.
