Capturing Engineering Quote Time

schedule resourses or activities in scheduler without creating a job

I’m not aware of anything, would be nice to hear what others have done.

This thread touches on some of the challenges.

Labor before a job is created

we use Indirect Activity, linked to Engineering Resource Group, with a minor customization to capture PartNum, MethodRevison, JobNum(optional), and CheckBox (Flag) to use this record in cost calculation, then we add these costs using these UD fields to the (Make to Stock) Job Cost at the end (i.e. Book to stock Transaction).

If you were only interested in tracking labor hours, I’ve seen some sites set up indirect activity codes for engineering to use for Office MES activities.
