Workboards

Workboards allow you to visualize where Work Orders are in your plant at any given time. Workboards are customizable cards that you can set up to meet the needs of a particular function, department, Station, or employee.

Each Card on a Workboard can represent a Process Node or station, or a combination of several nodes or stations. Sensor measurements that can be accepted at these nodes or stations may be displayed as well. See more about Setting Up Workboards and Workboard Labels.

Working Parts on Workboards

The Work Parts Dialog on Workboards provides operators with information needed to complete jobs.

How to Work Parts

1. From a Workboard Card, click the Work Parts icon for the Parts that you want to work on.

2. Enter in required inputs and deplete Inventory, as needed.
3. Click the MOVE PARTS button to step the Parts to the next Process Node.

Domain Settings for Work Parts

There are three Domain Settings that grant customization options for the Work Parts dialog appearance. These options include:

• Automatically Scroll Images
  • Turn this setting on to automatically page through images on the Work Parts dialog, so that you can see all the needed information on images with zero clicks required.
• Hide Inventory Section
  • This option removes the Inventory section on the Work Parts dialog and Work Order pages.
  • This is useful for if you don't deplete Inventory on individual Work Orders.
• Default Image Sizes
  • Choose Small, Medium, or Large so that you can either see images more clearly, or reduce scrolling.

"Treatments Not At This Node"

The "Treatments Not At This Node" text lists Treatments that have been chosen for the Parts, but are not applied to them when the Parts are at the current Node.

• For example - if Parts receive "Blasting" and "Red Paint" Treatments, the "Red Paint" Treatment would not be available if Parts are at the "Blasting" Node.

Inventory Depletions on Work Parts

• "CONFIGURE" will open a popup menu for the Work Order number that includes options to add items, and select Inventory Type, Inventory Item, and Recipe Node.
• "SCAN BATCH" opens a camera for scanning QR codes.

Print Job Tags from Workboards

There is a button on Racking and Super Rack Workboards to print a Work Order Job Tag directly from the Workboard.

Scan Job Tags on Workboards

There is a button on Workboards to scan a Work Order Job Tag to auto open/filter the Parts on the Workboard.

• If the QR code only matches a single Part on the Workboard then the Work Parts page will auto open.

• This will assist Users in finding of Parts on crowded Workboards.
