Dashboards
Manufacturing opens on ready dashboards for each role. The supervisor sees what is running and waiting for material, and the planner sees the order book. Job work, quality and maintenance each have their own. Every number is counted for the person looking, and a click opens the records behind it.
PLANSEvery plan
The problem it solves
- The morning meeting starts with someone walking the floor to count which orders are running.
- Nobody can say how much material sits at job workers without opening every challan.
- Failed checks and open breakdowns are found in three registers, after the shift.
How it works
- Open Manufacturing. Each role finds the dashboards shared with it: Shop Floor for supervisors, Plant for planners and managers, Job Work for both.
- With Growth, Quality joins for inspectors and Maintenance for technicians and managers, and the Shop Floor and Quality apps open on their own dashboards.
- Each tile and chart is counted as the person looking, for the Entities and plants they work in.
- Click a tile or a bar to open the orders, challans or checks behind it.
- Press edit to move, resize, add or remove items; the layout you set is yours. Make a private copy to build your own.
Everything it does
Every plan
- Shop Floor (supervisors): orders in progress, work orders running and ready, waiting for material, orders finished with a small trend line. Scrap, your activities, and work orders by station
- Plant (planners and managers): orders to start, in progress, waiting for material, to close. Orders by state, open orders by product, and orders finished per day
- Job Work (supervisors and planners): challans at job workers, partly back, challans to send, goods received back. What is out by job worker and by process
- Today in the app: open orders and late orders, for supervisors and above
Growth and Scale
- Quality (inspectors): checks to do, passed, failed, open non-conformances, failed checks by item and checks per day
- Maintenance (technicians and managers): open breakdowns, planned jobs open, jobs done, active plans, open requests by machine and requests per day
- The Shop Floor app's Dashboard: good output, rejects, orders in progress, orders late, output by day and rejects by reason
- The Quality app's Dashboard: checks to do, passed, failed, open non-conformances, checks by result and non-conformances by source
What you can do on a dashboard
- Refresh, and edit on a 12-column grid saved as your own layout
- Add a number tile, a chart or a list on any data you can open
- Make a private copy, or set one as your dashboard
- Shared dashboards also show in the Dashboard app
What each person sees
- Numbers are counted with the viewer's own access, so a supervisor allowed in one plant sees that plant
- Tick several Entities on the web to see them counted together
- The ready dashboards are made once; your later changes are kept when the product is updated

What you control

Questions
Does every supervisor see every plant?
Numbers are counted with the person's own access, so they follow the Entities and plants that person is allowed in.Can I add my own tiles?
Yes. In edit mode add a number, a chart or a list on data you can open. Make a private copy first to keep the shared one as it is.Is there a dashboard on the phone?
The SmartMy Manufacturing app opens on Today for managers, planners and supervisors, with open and late orders. The app is built and in testing, not in the app stores yet.Which plan has it?
Every plan, from Starter. Quality and Maintenance dashboards come with those features in Growth.Related features
PRODUCTION AND JOB WORKBills of materials, production orders and work ordersKeep each item's bill of materials with its components and the steps on your machines. A production order reserves the material, lays out the work orders step by step and puts the finished goods into stock at cost.PRODUCTION AND JOB WORKJob work: challans out, goods back valued, process loss and billsSend your material to a job worker on a challan and it stays your stock, valued, at their place. What comes back is valued with the job charge. The loss is checked against what the process allows, and the job worker's bill is made from what came back.PLANNING, QUALITY AND COSTProduction reports: plan against actual, material against BOM, scrap by reasonThree ready reports for the production manager. What was planned and what was made, by item and month. The material planned and used on orders. What was scrapped, by reason. Each opens as a pivot you can turn, filter and export.LINES AND SCHEDULINGOEE per machine and day, and the machine board on a TVOEE is worked out every hour for each machine and day from its running time and the pieces counted at the terminal. It is split into availability, performance and quality. A machine board on a TV shows every machine as working, stopped or idle.PLANNING, QUALITY AND COSTThe SmartMy Manufacturing appAn Android and iOS app for supervisors, quality inspectors and maintenance technicians. It has today's figures, production orders, machines and jobs, andon calls, quality checks and repairs. Each is shown to the people whose role allows it. Operators keep working on the terminal.ACROSS SMARTMY MANUFACTURINGSeveral entities in one accountRun the firms of your group, such as a machining unit and a separate assembly firm, in one SmartMy Manufacturing account. Each Entity keeps its own plants, orders, job work, settings and books. Your staff switch between the Entities they are allowed in, and the owner sees them together.
