Starting Job Operations, Just-In-Time Production, Production Schedules, and Setup Using the Work Center Form

Only non-workset-enabled employees can start job operations, Just-In-Time production, production schedules, or setup activities. To add a job operation or setup activity to a workset or to start a workset, see the Adding Job Operations, Setup Activities, and Labor Reporting to Worksets or Starting Worksets sections.

  1. Open the Work Center form.
  2. In the field marked with a person icon near the top of the form, specify your employee ID number. This number may be specified by default.
  3. In the field marked with a factory icon near the top of the form, select a work center. Your work center may be specified by default. The operations that are ready to be started are displayed on the Job List tab or PS / JIT tab.
  4. Optionally, specify a date and time to record for this transaction. The current date and time is specified by default. You can only modify the date and time if the Work Center Popup Enabled parameter is cleared and your user ID has the appropriate authorizations on the User Extensions form.
  5. Select an operation from the Job List tab or PS / JIT tab.
  6. Select Start Run, Start JIT, or Start Setup.

    If the Work Center Popup Enabled parameter is cleared, the operation is started.

    If the Work Center Popup Enabled parameter is selected, the Start Run, Start Just-In-Time,  Start Production Schedule, or Start Setup form is opened. Use these forms to start the operation or activity. See Starting Job Operations, Starting Just-In-Time Production Orders, Starting Production Schedules, or Starting Setup Activities for more information.
