Hello Pierre,

Please have a look at the online demo where I just created a production run
- # 10000 - that uses the 'PROD_MANUF' product and 'ROUTING_COST'
workeffort. I know that fixed asset 'WORKCENTER_COST' is involved, but when
I navigate to Fixed Assets-> Calendar as you mentioned I don't see the
created workefforts listed for today whatever the status of the production
run is. What am I doing wrong here?

As for your explanation about the other resources collide, I think it makes
very much sense. Thanks.

Regards,
Emad
