Insert Processes

Processes that are required for manufacturing continue to be added to the part (piece) “Motor Shaft”. Related processes can be structured using the grouping. The grouping itself has no function in product costing.

The units are pre-configured in FACTON. If you want to enter a value in a different unit, you can toggle through different units using the selection list.
