MRP and Production Orders (Scheduling Method Finish On or Start On) use a straight run time calculation to manage dates, not taking into account Crew Size for the work center.  Can Acumatica MRP and Production Orders take crew size into account?

Here’s the conflict as the system works today.  In order to make MRP and Production Order dates work, you would have to add run time to the BOM equal to the straight time, and then adjust your work center Standard Cost equal to your rate x the crew size.  For example, if a BOM takes 10 hours to move through a work center, but you have a crew size of 3, really I would like to put 30 hours (man hours) of run time in that operation, and put your real standard cost rate (for one person) on the work center, say it’s $25/hr.  But to make MRP and Production Order dates work properly, currently in the system you would have to put 10 hours straight time as the run time and adjust your work center Standard Cost rate to $75 in order to account for the labor cost of that operation.  But that would become difficult to administer as your crew size changes, potentially daily.

APS does take crew size into account when it runs date calculations.

I’m open to being told I’m thinking about this incorrectly as well
