To assign/update shop floor statuses:You can assign shop floor statuses to any intraoperation step associated with a job or repetitive line/assembly. Shop floor statuses that are assigned to a repetitive line/assembly are valid for all repetitive schedules being built on that production line.
You can assign multiple statuses to an intraoperation step. You cannot, however, assign the same shop floor status to more than one intraoperation step within the same operation. For example you could not assign the same status to the Queue and To Move intraoperation steps of operation sequence 30. You can update shop floor statuses at any time.
Statuses are removed from intraoperation steps when the quantities at those operations drop to zero.
You can view the shop floor statuses that you have assigned to jobs and repetitive schedule operations. You can view statuses directly using this window or indirectly by choosing the Statuses button as you perform move transactions. Viewing statuses as you transact allows you to check the status of intraoperation steps before you attempt to move assemblies into or out of them.
