I need to make a workbook that contains sheets of different products. For every product, there's a list of the processes it need to produce it, including the time each process takes, and the employees needed per process. Been trying to make an easier format wherein you just input the quantity ordered for that product and it auto-computes the time needed to make the product.

Any ideas?

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand

Assuming MIN PER ITEM & SECONDS PER ITEM are fixed values ... placing appropriate formulas in the remaining
cells as needed ... the remaining values auto-calculate. You only need to enter the ORDER QUANTITY for the remaining
values to fill in.

Download the attached sample file and let me know if this is close.
