The screens will then display all Jobs in production at a specific Operation/Work CentreCenter.
Users must then post labor against the SYSPRO Job and update the operation at each Operation/Work Centre, Center as it’s completed and moved on to the next Operation/Work CentreCenter.

FUNCTIONALITY OVERVIEW
The factory status board can be used to track a job from operation to operation through the factory floor. Let us assume that your factory has 5 main work cells and every job passes from one cell to the next as it is being manufactured. Five large screens can be installed with on in each area. Then this factory status screens can be opened on each station and a set of Operations set. The screen will then show all jobs currently at this operation.
The module requires that you are posting labor against the SYSPRO job and updating the operations as complete. Each operation will have to be set as a milestone operation in SYSPRO.
STANDARD PROCESS
Set the "Include jobs with completed operations window
Set the "Exclude jobs with completed operations" window
Refresh the grid - you will see the jobs where the above criteria apply.
To explain the filters above. Let us say that you have 5 work operations that the jobs pass through. These are WORK1; WORK2; WORK3; WORK4; WORK5.
If you set the "Include jobs with completed operations as WORK3
And you set the "Exclude jobs with completed operations as "WORK4 and WORK5
Then:
The screen will show all jobs where the WORK3 has been posted but will exclude all jobs where WORK 4 and WORK5 are completed. In other words you will get all jobs that are complete at WORK3 but have not yet been processed at WORK4. These are the filters that you would set on the screen based in WORK4's work cell.
