Internet-kiosk
The Internet-kiosk gives a simple way for workers to report shop-floor progress. It is a simplified alternative to the My production plan.
In the Internet-kiosk, the production operations assigned to the user or the user's departments can be seen.
The concept is that the worker must take the uppermost operation and complete it:
- Operations with the earliest start time are shown first.
- If the two operations have the same start time, the one with the lower operation number in the MO is shown first.
- Completed operations of the unfinished MO-s are at the end of the list. (Operations of finished MOs are removed.)
The Internet-kiosk advanced mode enables additional functionality.

- Configure visibility of operations.
- Internet-kiosk advanced mode.
- Access to attached files.
Access to the Internet-kiosk

Production reporting in Internet-kiosk
Jump to:
- Report operation's start, finish, and quantity.
- Finishing the Manufacturing Order.
- Materials used in production.
- Report serial numbers.
- Multiple users on one device.
- Color coding.
Report production operations
To perform manufacturing operations and record start-stop:
- Click on the Start Start button at the work operation’s line to start work.
- Click on the Pause Pause button, if the operation is stopped, but it is not finished yet. The software will ask to enter the quantity, how many items were completed from the last start (if left empty, defaults to 0). Click Start again to resume.
- Click on the Finish Finish button, when the operation is fully completed.
The software will ask to enter the quantity, how many items were completed from the last start (if left empty, defaults to match the order quantity).
Color coding
The color of the Start button indicates the status of the operation:
- Not started
- Paused
- Finished
Finish the Manufacturing Order
When the last operation is finished in the Internet-kiosk, then the order is automatically finished:
- all booked parts will be consumed,
- finished products will be available in stock,
- if more materials were required than were booked and could be consumed accordingly to the BOM, a note is added to the Manufacturing Order.
- if the final reported quantity differs from the order quantity, a note is added to the Manufacturing Order.
Materials used in production
When Internet-kiosk Advanced mode is enabled, it is possible to see materials in the Internet-kiosk.
When using the Internet-kiosk, all materials are marked consumed automatically after the completion of the first production operation.
For manual reporting of materials, My production plan should be used.
Report serial numbers in production
When Internet-kiosk Advanced mode is enabled, it is possible to track Serial numbers:
- To record a serial number for the final product, click the Serial numbers button.
- If serial numbers of the parts must also be recorded, then when specifying the serial number of the finished product, it is possible to select items used and add serial numbers for each (according to the stock lots of parts booked for this order).
Multiple workers reporting on one device
Several workers can use one device to access their production plans and reporting.
