Modifying a Library Module
Follow the steps below to add an AbrasiveJet Cut cycle time formula to the library libAccounting_SheetMetal.csl. A complete implementation of AbrasiveJet Cut would include similar modifications for several other quantities, such as labor time. labor cost, and direct overhead cost.
1 In the navigation pane, expand Global Cost Model Information, and click Globally Available CSL/Lookup Tables.
2 In the editing pane, click Library CSL.
3 Select Override Object from the Edit menu, or click the override icon,

next to the name of the new library. The CSL module appears in the editing pane.5 Find the group of formulas whose names start with GetCycleTime_SheetMetal_(type control-f to search, F3 for next, and Shift+F3 for previous). Add the following formula at the end of the group:
GetCycleTime_SheetMetal_WaterjetCut(processTime, numOperators) = CycleTime0
Note that CycleTime0 is defined in the same library as follows:
CycleTime0 = GetCycleTime(processTime, numOperators)
The function GetCycleTime is defined in libCommonAccounting.csl in terms of processTime:
GetCycleTime(processTime, numOperators) = _
processTime * plant.cycleTimeAdjustmentFactor
The formula processTime is defined in the taxonomy file proper. See Modifying the Cycle Time Formulas.
