A module which allows you to monitor the flow and processing of products in the context of an production order.operation execution, inform the worker of some custom steps in a operation and control if intermediate products are processed in the right order.
Concepts:
- We have defined workstations that can perform selected operations.
- Each workstation has a display screen with a web browser and a bar code scanner. Optionally a keyboard and a mouse or touchscreen can be used.
- The work on a operation is always determined by firstly scanning an resource number or an order number and the operations which can be performed on the workstation.
- In addition to scanning order, resource, product and warehouse numbers you can also scan action bar codes which help to interact with the system.
- While reporting what has been consumed/produced in the input/output of the operation the worker can scan resource numbers or products numbers. Scanning resources numbers modifies their quantity in the inventory. Scanning product codes does not.
Open questions
- How should we handle unit and quantities when a used scans a resource or product ? how much to add after one scan if something is in liters ?
- Should we determine somewhere in the configuration where which inputs and outputs need to be scanned to note there used/produced quantities in a operation ?
- How to handle the situation in which passing input and outputs is optional or we just want to note that the main resource was transformed ?
