Production Lines - Main Settings

In the “Main Settings”, we primarily fill in the basic settings of Production Lines.

In the below table there are all parameters of the Production Line tab Main Settings with its description.

Parameter name	Limitations	Possible values	Description	DB field
Title	100 chars	free text	Title of the production line.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[TITLE]
Code	50 chars	free text	Code of the production line.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[CODE]
Description	255 chars	free text	Description of the production line.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[DESCRIPTION]
Backflush type	defined values	Finish Start Finish	Finish: Production consumes input material at the moment production ends. A batch number is also generated at this point. Start-Finish: Production consumes input material at the moment production begins. A batch number is also generated at this point.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[BACKFLUSH_TYPE]
External ID	100 chars	free text	External ID of the production line.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[external_id]
Incomplete pallets finish time	0 or positive number	number of days	0: Incomplete Production Items can only be completed manually from the Shopfloor View. Other than 0: After this number of days, incomplete Production Items are automatically completed with the current quantity.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[fin_incomp_pallets_time]
Max quantity	0 or positive number	Number	0: A production line has no limit on the quantity within one Production Item that can be assigned to it. Other than 0: A maximum of this quantity within one Production Item can be assigned to the production line.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[MAX_QUANTITY]
Location	defined values	list of all locations	Selection of location of this production line.	[PRODUCTION_LINE_SETTING].[ID_LOCATION]
Change of handling unit template	defined values	Only one production item Production items until next changeover	Only one Production Item: If the Handling Unit Template is changed within a Production Item in the production queue on this line, this value will be changed only for one Production Item where this adjustment was made. Production items until next changeover: If the Handling Unit Template is changed within a Production Item in the production queue on this line, this value will also be changed for all subsequent Production Items of the same material directly following it (within this changeover) where this adjustment was made.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[hand_unit_tmp_change_type]
Change of production version	defined values	Only one production item Production items until next changeover	Only one Production Item: If the Production Version is changed within a Production Item in the production queue on this line, this value will be changed only for one Production Item where this adjustment was made. Production items until next changeover: If the Production Version is changed within a Production Item in the production queue on this line, this value will also be changed for all subsequent Production Items of the same material directly following it (within this changeover) where this adjustment was made.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[prod_version_change_type]
Type of production time calculation	defined values	Default Weighted average		[PRODUCTION_LINE].[final_production_time_type]
Warehouse material consumption type	defined values	Fifo Defined Fifo and defined	FIFO is a material consumption type means that inventory items that were first received into the warehouse are the first ones to be consumed or issued out. Defined consumption type is used when goods are issued from a storage location to be used in a production process. The system will track the consumption of materials and update inventory levels accordingly. Combination of both ways how to the production line consume the material.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[WARE_MATERIAL_CONSUMPTION_TYPE]
Feeding Warehouse	defined values	list of all warehouses	The default warehouse from which materials are consumed by production.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[ID_INPUT_WAREHOUSE]
Picking Warehouse	defined values	list of all warehouses	The default warehouse to which manufactured materials are generated.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[ID_OUTPUT_WAREHOUSE]
Material consumption type	defined values	None Backflush	None: material is consumed for production manually using the Warehouse Terminal Control module Backflush: the input material for production is automatically consumed from the feeding warehouse (If no feeding warehouse is selected, material from any available warehouse is consumed).	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[MATERIAL_CONSUMPTION_TYPE]
Production item status after finish production	defined values	list of all production statuses	Defines a status which is assigned to production item after production declaration.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[ID_STATUS_AFTER_PROD_FINISH]
Planning mode	defined values	Sequence Hybrid Calendar	Defines whether the planning strategy for this line is sequence or fix time (calendar) of both options combined (hybrid).	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[planning_mode]
Allow manual finish in planning module	checkbox	on / off	Allows you to declare the production of the currently processed Production Item on this line from the Production Control screen.	[PRODUCTION_LINE_SETTING].[MANUAL_FINISH]
Allow start more production items	checkbox	on / off	It enables multiple Production Items to be processed on this line at one time.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[ITEMSINPRODUCTION]
Allow automatic closure with partial declaration	checkbox	on / off	If activated, in the partial declaration process, production is automatically completed when the required quantity of the Production Item is declared. If not activated, the final production declaration can only be made by pressing the "Finish Production" button.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[allow_automatic_closure]
Allow line scheduling	checkbox	on / off	When the function is activated, it is possible to manually change the order of Production Items on the line from the line planning screen.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[line_scheduling]
Active	checkbox	on / off	Inactive lines are not displayed in other application modules except for Parameterization. Production orders cannot therefore be assigned to inactive lines.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[active]
Autoreset time difference	defined values	No Yes, each shift Yes, first shift of the day Yes, custom	Defines the moment when the time differences of the production queue should be reset. Estimated production times are then set as scheduled and line delays are reset to zero. None: this action can only be triggered manually on the line by pressing a button in line planning. Yes, each shift: This action is automatically triggered at the start of each shift. Yes, first shift of the day: This action is automatically triggered at the beginning of the first shift of the day. Yes, custom: This action is automatically triggered on defined days and hours of the week.	[PRODUCTION_LINE].[TIME_CHANGEOVER]
