Default system complexity multipliers
Part Complexity of A: The system multiplies the operation setup, labor, and machine cost per part by 1.0, adding no additional cost for simple parts.
Part Complexity of B: The system multiplies the operation setup, labor, and machine cost per part by 1.1, adding 10% for slightly complex parts.
Part Complexity of C: The system multiplies the operation setup, labor, and machine cost per part by 1.2, adding 20% for moderately complex parts.
Part Complexity of D: The system multiplies the operation setup, labor, and machine cost per part by 1.3, adding 30% for highly complex parts that require the most setup time, tight tolerances, or multiple operations.
Where This Appears in the Quote
When you assign a part complexity ranking to a part in the Quote, the multiplier is applied directly in the operation’s cost breakdown areas for Setup, Machine and Labor Cost.
Example: If a part with a base machine cost of $100 is assigned complexity D (1.3), the new calculated cost becomes:
$100 × 1.3 = $130
