WISL Process Management provides the link
between production and planning processes. It begins with the capability
to maintain records of and schedule production batches. It offers an
interface with data collection applications on the production line to
provide production control information and retrieve actual production
data. Finally it includes an interface for WISL Production Analysis or a
third party MRP system to pass along the planned and actual production
data.
WISL Process Management
Scenario
-
An interface data base of fixed length
records is maintained to serve as the basis for data collection
systems(e.g. those supplied by Intelligent Instruments Inc or Data
Net Corp).
-
Interface details vary by client
system but the general approach involves accessing files on the
server via TCP/IP through NFS or passing files between client and
server utilizing FTP.
-
The WISL Process Management system
running on the server provides information about batches to be
produced and related control data and the data collection systems
return information about the results of production.
-
A routine is available for the
foreman or production supervisor to record summary results of
production activity at the end of a shift.
