How do I get started?

Click Get started, then use Proto to configure Production Dashboard for your business. Pilot a resource and product over a reconciled production day, with a dated target, linked shift actuals, approved demand and an eligible batch review. Agree identity mappings and opening stock before live posting.

What do targets and actuals compare?

A target supplies the resource, product, intended production date, good-unit quantity and planned minutes. Each shift result links to that target and records good units, scrap units and run minutes. Compare the effective linked population and show missing results as missing evidence.

How do we handle a shift crossing midnight?

Agree which production day the target represents and use that target for the shift result. Keep the date the actual was recorded as capture context. Rehearse the operating timezone with the team so a late submission does not move output into another target day.

Can work be released with an overlapping resource interval?

The planner’s release action checks approved demand, positive planned quantity, resource availability and a feasible non-overlapping schedule before Draft becomes Released. Inspect both ends of the planned interval and recheck a proposed replacement against existing work.

How does material issue protect reserved stock?

The posting action compares the requested quantity with on-hand quantity minus reserved quantity on the eligible same-unit item, location and lot balance. Sufficient free stock posts the exact Draft issue and decrements that balance once. Insufficient free stock rejects posting.

How is a production interval attributed?

The interval action resolves the signed-in account through its linked staff record and saves that operator with the work order. It requires ordered interval boundaries and nonnegative good and scrap quantities. Repeated intervals and repeated log names are rejected.

Who releases an accepted batch?

Quality Reviewer approves the exact Pending batch after the completed-interval, lifecycle, prior-terminal-receipt and finished-goods balance checks. Reading production context does not give another role the reviewer’s decision authority.

What happens when a target or actual is corrected?

The capture action appends attributed successor evidence while preserving the earlier submission. Agree and test which record is effective before publishing aggregate comparisons. Keep the original available to explain the change, without counting both versions as separate production.

Can an action retry withdraw or receive the same output again?

A material issue posts against its exact Draft identity and decrements the eligible balance once. Batch acceptance checks that good terminal output has not already been received. Rehearse retries and inspect the returned evidence so the team can confirm that another quantity effect was prevented.

What does it cost?

Ordinary manual work, agent execution, model usage and connected machine activity follow the published platform contract. Implementation and rollout are priced separately. Review pricing and the implementation scope for the complete terms.
