Documentation

Definition

Depending on how Kanban is used in production, you set the constant in the following way:

  • If a kanban is reported empty when all the material in the kanban has been used up, the constant is set to 1.

    If several work centers are served by one production supply area when kanbans are reported empty in this way, the constant must be increased by the number of work centers.

  • If, on the other hand, the kanban is reported empty as soon as the first part is withdrawn, the constant is 0.

You can also use this constant to plan a safety stock.
