New Declaration
Normally, the Production declarations are generated automatically through Fluentis MES, but the user also has the option to generate them manually using this form.
Upon opening the form, it is necessary to enter the production order and the corresponding phase/sub-phase that you want to declare. In this way, the relevant data is automatically loaded at the top of the form.
In the central grid, the lines of the production declaration must be entered. The first data to enter is the Declaration Status, which can take the following values:
- Opening: allows you to create an opening production report;
- Interruption: allows you to create a suspension production report;
- Resumption: allows you to create a resumption production report; it should only be entered after a Suspension;
- Progress: allows you to create a progress production report;
- Closing: allows you to create a closure production report;
Each production declaration must have as the first row an opening declaration that determines when the processing begins.
This can be followed by a progress or directly by a closure depending on the cases. The substantial difference is that the closure does not allow for additional declaration lines, while the progress does.
Additionally, it is also possible to enter suspension declarations followed by a resumption declaration in case it is necessary to stop production for some reason.
