Checking Work Centers Dashboard

You can click the following links:

• Utilization by week
  Click to start the Work Center Utilization by Week (tisfc1501m000) session, which displays the detailed planning and capacity usage of a specific work center. Shop floor order-schedules are displayed for a specific week. Detailed information can be viewed, such as operation, operation status, machine hours, and man hours. This data is very important for planners. They can see work center progress, and based on this detailed information, take action.
• Utilization by day
  Click to start the Work Center Utilization by Day (tisfc1506m000) session, which displays the detailed planning and capacity usage of a specific work center. Shop floor order-schedules are displayed for a specific week. Detailed information can be viewed, such as operation, operation status, machine hours, and man hours. This data is very important for planners. They can see work center progress, and based on this detailed information, take action.
• Build utilization
  Click to update the calculations of how much you have planned to use machines and work centers.
• Input/output control
  Click to start the Work Center Input/Output Control (tisfc3510m000) session. Input/output control can be used to judge how efficiently your work centers are operating. The input/output figures are expressed in number of hours. If the actual input is less then the planned input, not enough work is at a work center or machine, which leads to poor productivity. An actual output that is less then the planned output can indicate problems at a work center or machine. The difference between input and output is the queue. To ensure a continuous production flow in the work center a planner aims at a minimum amount of work waiting at a work center, which is called the desired queue. Based on all this information a shop floor planner can take corrective actions.
• Generate I/O control
  The input and output control figures must be generated before they can be analyzed. Click to do so. You can also generate the input/output data directly from the Work Center Input/Output Control (tisfc3510m000) session.
• Delete I/O control
  Input/output data for a specific work center that is not used anymore must be deleted. Click to do so. You can also delete the input/output data directly from the Work Center Input/Output Control (tisfc3510m000) session.
• Resource order plan
  Click to start the Resource Order Plan-Find (cprrp0530m000) session. The resource plan displays the planned capacity usage of a specific work center on the mid-long term. The resource plan takes into account planned orders (not yet transferred), and already transferred orders. This data is important for shop floor planners because based on this data they can take action in an early stage, even before shop floor orders are created.
• Tool requests
  Click to start the Tool Requests (titrp0515m000) session. The list of requests are displayed by work center. For every request, LN shows whether the requested tool is available. This information can be important to planners. Although sufficient capacity is available, a tool might be unavailable so that the operation cannot be performed.
• Request/return tools
  Click to start the Request and Return Tools (titrp0215m000) session to actually request a tool for a work center. You must also use this session to return a tool after utilization from the work center to the warehouse or to another work center.
