Set time units of measure

You can set time units of measure for your project. Process Planning for BTO/BTS/CTO saves those units of measure for the project until you change them. In this example, time is measured in seconds.

In Process Planning for BTO/BTS/CTO 2.8, this feature is not supported on Internet Explorer. Use a different browser to set time units of measure.

Procedure

  1. In the header, beside Time Unit, click the unit of measure.

  2. Select a time unit from the Time drop-down list.

    Time units of measure are updated for your project. Those units of measurement are saved for the project until you change them. Tip Hover over an object on the page (for example, a station, operation, or process resource) to display time-related data in a tool tip for that object.
