Shop Floor Control – Defining quantity completed for operations in touch screen user interface
Menu path

Introduction
On this page, you can define the quantity completed for the step that is executed on the operation. You can only fill in the quantity completed for production orders with at least the Released status, and for operations with the Open or Started status.
By-product items can also be registered via the By-products button on this page. By product items are secondary products derived from a production process and are considered to yield smaller revenues compared to the primary product or service being produced.
In addition, you can stop the time entries that you have started or complete the operation step, as well as view the statuses of the hour realizations for all operations.
