The standard lead time for produced items. The times entered here are default times if times are not specified elsewhere. This is typically used by companies or organizations that need simple lead times. The lead time for an item in production is the time that is required to manufacture an item from the first operation to the last. You only need to use this field when no routes are to be created for the item. If a route has been created, the production time is calculated during item coverage planning. You can define the lead time for a site. If no site-specific lead time is defined, the default setting for the item is used. The lead time that is defined in the Item coverage page takes precedence over this field. Weekends are not included in the lead time as available work capacity. Therefore, the actual lead time might be longer than the time that appears in the field. The work capacity depends on the calendar that is assigned in the Coverage groups page.
