Module Purpose

The E-Mixing Line Settings module is used to define, activate, or deactivate the status of each production line that utilizes the E-Mixing system. This module is crucial for data integration and for configuring workflows based on the actual setup of the production lines.

1. Main View (E-Mixing Line List)

View Explanation

  • E-Mixing Line Table:

    • No.: The sequence number for the line.

    • Line: The name or code of each production line.

    • Reason: A column containing a brief description of the status change (e.g., "E-mixing trial" or "Syncing e-mixing to sunfish 2.0").

    • User Update: The last user who modified the status or information for that line.

    • Date Update: The date and time of the most recent update.

    • Line Status: A status column indicating active (green checkmark) or inactive (red cross).

  • The status can be edited by clicking on a row in the table.

2. Add/Update E-Mixing Line Page

View Explanation

  • Line: A dropdown menu listing the available production lines.

  • E-Mixing Line Status: A choice of Active (checkmark) or Inactive (radio button).

  • Reason for Activation/Inactivation: A text field for recording the reason behind the status change.

  • Save button to store changes and a Cancel button to discard the action.

3. Steps for Adding/Managing E-Mixing Lines

  • Go to Utilities > E-Mixing Line Settings.

  • Click the New button to add or edit line details.

  • Select the Line from the available dropdown menu.

  • Set the Status: Activate or deactivate based on operational needs.

  • Save the data using the Save button.

  • To change the status of an existing line, click on the line's row, make the necessary changes to the status or reason, and then save.

4. Integrated Workflow & Business Process

  • Control of Active E-Mixing Lines: By setting the status, users can control which lines are included in the automated E-Mixing process and data integration with Sunfish or other ERP systems, ensuring only operationally ready lines are active.

  • Auditing & Tracking: The reason, user, and update time columns are essential for audit purposes (for example, if operational issues arise and a history of line setup changes is needed).

5. Tips & Important Notes

  • Ensure the active/inactive status always reflects the actual conditions on the factory floor to prevent errors in the automated integration process.

  • Always record the reason for status changes to assist the maintenance and IT teams during troubleshooting or system audits.

  • Access to this module should be restricted to production supervisors, maintenance staff, or system administrators who understand the operational conditions and data reconciliation needs.
