• Key Concepts: 
  Item-dependent setup time is a feature of SAP Logistics Execution (LE) that allows users to define the amount of time needed to set up a particular item for production. This setup time is then used to calculate the total production time for the item. The setup time can be defined in terms of hours, minutes, or seconds. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use item-dependent setup time, users must first define the setup time for each item in the system. This can be done by navigating to the “Setup Time” tab in the LE module and entering the desired setup time for each item. Once this is done, the system will automatically calculate the total production time for each item based on its setup time. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to note that the setup time should be as accurate as possible in order to ensure that production times are calculated correctly. Additionally, users should also consider any additional factors that may affect production times such as machine downtime or material availability.
