Manufacturing lead time
-----------------------

Configure the manufacturing lead time directly on the product form, by navigating to
:menuselection:`Manufacturing app --> Products --> Products`, and select the desired product.
Manufacturing lead times for products are configured from a product's bill of materials (BoM) form.

In the :guilabel:`Inventory` tab of the product, specify the calendar days needed to the manufacture
the product in the :guilabel:`Manufacturing Lead Time` field.
To add a lead time to a |BoM|, navigate to :menuselection:`Manufacturing app --> Products --> Bills
of Materials`, and select the desired |BoM| to edit.

.. example::
Specify a 14-day :guilabel:`Manufacturing Lead Time` for a product directly in the
:guilabel:`Inventory` tab of the product.
On the |BoM| form, click the :guilabel:`Miscellaneous` tab. Change the value (in days) in the
:guilabel:`Manuf. Lead Time` field to specify the calendar days needed to manufacture the product.

.. note::
If the selected |BoM| is a multi-level |BoM|, the manufacturing lead times of the components are
added.

If the |BoM| product is subcontracted, the :guilabel:`Manuf. Lead Time` can be used to determine
the date at which components should be sent to the subcontractor.

Change the value (in days) in the :guilabel:`Days to prepare Manufacturing Order` field to create
and confirm |MOs| in advance, and have enough time to replenish components, or manufacture
semi-finished products.

.. tip::
Clicking :guilabel:`Compute`, located next to the :guilabel:`Days to prepare Manufacturing Order`
field, computes the days required to resupply all components listed on the |BoM| form, either by
buying or manufacturing the components or subassemblies.

*Purchase security lead times* that impact this specific |BoM| are also added to this value.

Establish a :abbr:`MO (Manufacturing Order)` deadline, based on the *expected delivery date*,
indicated in the :guilabel:`Scheduled Date` field of the :abbr:`DO (Delivery Order)`.
