Gathering Spec Data
- Print
Spec data can be gathered from operators as they move parts out of a station. This can be done directly from a Work Order page or a Workboard.
Assigning Spec Fields to a Process Node
- From the "Processes" page, choose the Process containing the Process Node that you want to assign the spec to
- From the process tree, choose a process node that you would like to collect spec data from
- Scroll to the "Spec Fields" area of the process node page and click the "Add Spec Field" button
- Choose the spec, and then the spec field, to collect at that process node
- Repeat for each spec field to include
Assigning a Spec to a Part Number
Specs may be assigned to Part Numbers when they are created, or any time from the part number's page.
- From the part number page for an existing part, click the "Add Spec" button
- If creating a part on a received order, click the "Set Specs on Part Number" button
Choose the spec that you want to add to the part number
Choose the spec parameters for the part number
Once specs are set on part numbers, updating the spec does not change the specs on the part number. This is for tracking historical spec compliance. To update the specs on a part number, create a new part number using the "Copy Part" button.
Collecting Data on Part Numbers
When part numbers that have been assigned a spec pass through a process node that has been assigned a spec field, operators will be prompted to submit measurements as the parts are worked.
- On Workboards that show process nodes with spec fields assigned, part numbers that have specs assigned will display a badge to let operators know to input spec measurements
- Click the "Work Parts" button to open the sliding Work Parts screen
- Input measurements for the required spec fields
- Spec result information will be displayed on the Work Order page
