Capture station and production evidence

Capture serial-level station outcomes and operator production intervals for the quality handoff.

Step by step

  1. Identify the movement Production Operator

    Production Operator checks the unit serial and station before recording entry and exit. The pass describes that unit's station activity and ends with a disposition of Pass, Rework or Reject.

    • Serial, station and interval are prepared
    • Updates Station passes, Resources
  2. Process the station pass Production Operator

    Production Operator uses Process Station Pass. The action checks the station, serial, interval and disposition and rejects invalid or duplicate identities before writes. Successful processing refreshes the linked station listing.

    • Valid pass is saved; station listing refreshes
    • Updates Station passes, Resources
  3. Record the production interval Production Operator

    Production Operator records the work order and operator with the production start and end times. Good and scrap quantities remain separate so the reviewer can understand the output from that interval.

    • Operator output and timing are entered
    • Updates Production logs, People, Work orders
  4. End the interval Production Operator

    Production Operator ends the production interval. Validation precedes persistence, the output batch is created or updated as Pending, and the linked work order moves into quality review.

    • Log persists, output becomes Pending, work moves to quality review
    • Updates Production logs, Batches, Work orders
  5. Hand over the output Production Planner

    Production Planner checks that the work appears in Quality Review Queue. Quality Reviewer locates the Pending batch and reviews the production evidence before making the accepted-output decision.

    • Evidence is checked before release review
    • Updates Work orders, Batches, Production logs

Where it usually breaks

And how to keep it from happening.

  • The serial is mistyped, leaving the next operator unable to identify the physical unit from the pass.
  • A station exit precedes its entry, or a production end precedes its start. Correct the interval before processing.
  • The operator's people record points to the wrong user account, making the personal production queue misleading.
