Report: Production, Own Equipment, Summary, by Actual Volume
(#107)
|
|
Why:
You need a report that shows your equipment costs and production for your
hourly equipment where you keep track of your production by entering the
equipment on your load tickets. Costs are based on the Fully Founded Rate.
Focus:
Focus of Report is to provide a summary, by block, of your equipment
costs and your actual delivered production. The report is suited for those
operations that pay their workers on an hourly basis and track their employees
and equipment on their load slips. The report is a companion report to Blocks, Production, Own
Equipment, Daily, by Estimated Volume that provides a detailed
(daily) version of the data.
- Report is based solely on time slips -- contract workers time slips are
excluded
- Employee pay calculator must be run for the report (equipment costs
are computed when the employee calculator is run)
- The actual delivered volume is calculated by matching time slips with load
slips based on the equipment unit, activity and block, all within the
selected date range.
- Matching of time slips and load slips requires that the same activities be
tracked on load slips (even though the activities are not paid by load slip)
- Equipment cost is based on the equipment full founded (all found) cost entered for each
unit (Maintenance time is NOT charged out at standard cost).
- Although report shows tree counts, actual production is driven off load
slips -- entry of tree counts is not critical.
Selection Window:
The selection window allows you to filter the report by:
- Date/Time. You can directly ender a date/time range for the start
and end dates for your report. If you leave the end time blank, the
program will assume you want the entire day for the end date. In the
example below, the start date/time is 8/1/2004 00:00:00 (a blank is assumed
to be time 00:00:00) and the end date/time is 8/15/2004 00:00:00.
Because the end date time is blank (or 00:00:00), the program assumes you
want the whole day of the 15th and makes the end date/time 8/16/2004
00:00:00. In the selection query, the program returns records
whose start date/time is greater than OR equal to the start/date time and strictly
less than the end date/time. You do not need to select a period
-- this selection is merely used to facilitate the entry of the state and
end dates. If you select a period, you can always edit the state and
end dates to be any date you choose. For example, you can pick a
period defined as 8/1/2004 to 8/12/2004, and then extend the end date by
three days to 8/15/2004.
- Block: You can select any or all of your blocks.
- The "Only Print Raw Data" option generates a report with the
report detail, but with no subtotals or totals.
Detailed Description:
The report shows payments due for each load on an activity-by-activity basis. The
columns are:
- Block Code: Source Block of the load
- Eq Code: Equipment Code
- Equipment: Equipment description
- Activity: Work activity
- Hours: Count of hours for the equipment for the activity over the
date range
- Equip Rate: Fully founded hourly rate for the equipment.
(Maintenance time is NOT charged out at standard cost)
- Equipment Cost: Fully founded cost for the activity
- Trees: The sum of Tree Count 1 and Tree Count 2 on time slips
- M3/Tress: Actual production divided by Tree count
- Actual Production: The volume of loads delivered in the selected
date range for that block, equipment, and activity as recorded on load slips
- Cost/Volume: Equipment cost divided by Actual Production. Where
their are no matching load slips the value will be reported as zero.
- Volume/Hour: Actual production divided by hours
Key Notes:
- Report is based solely on time slips (employee and contractor);
Production slips and miscellaneous expenses are excluded.
- The Employee pay calculator must be run for the report
- The actual delivered volume is calculated by matching time slips with load
slips based on employee, equipment unit, activity and block, all within the
selected date range. For volume to be matched up the equipment code (as well as the activity and block) must match between
the time slips and the load slip activities
- Matching of time slips and load slips requires that the same activities be
tracked on load slips (even though the activities may not be paid by load slip)
- Equipment cost is based on the equipment fully founded cost entered for each
unit (Maintenance time is NOT charged out at standard cost).
- Although report shows tree counts, actual production is driven off load
slips -- entry of tree counts is not required.
The total actual production for an entire block is based on the activity(ies) that are identified as the activity tagged 'Use for Production'
This flag is used to identify the activity that you want to use to govern the
total production for a block. For example, you might have production data
for skidding, bunching and delimbing. Which activity data serves as the
best estimate of overall block production. The 'Use for Production'
indicator is used to resolve this issue.
Example One:
Example Report 1 shows the report where employee payroll costs are calculated
based on each employee's base (as opposed to fully loaded) pay rate. In this example the
worker/equipment data for a block are totaled for all days in the selected date
range. Note that the total trees for the block (on line 18)
shows the tree count for the activity flagged as the production activity (bunching is the activity that
is flagged as the production indicator, the other activities are not). Thus, the daily
tree counts and production (and cost/volume) for the block are based on the
values for bunching alone. The equipment rate and equipment cost columns
are based on the fully founded rate.
