Beas: Managing tools

Tools are accessories that can, sometimes, be required to perform an Operation. Tools can affect the routing positions in many aspects. For example, tools can:

• Increase the cost of Operation
• Limit production capacity if the tool is in use and is required for another Operation
• Change the production time when tools can make the process faster or slower or when tools can process a different number of products at the same time

Utilities, on the other hand, are simplified tools that cannot limit the production capacity nor change the production time.
