Calendar events include the option of automatically activating a downtime production status when the event terminates. This addresses the need to reflect the gap between planned production start time and actual production start time.
To activate this function:
Go to Production Floor > Department view and select the department from the drop-down list.
Click the Online tab.
In grid view, click the calendar icon to open that machine's calendar.
Click the calendar slot (time and day) for the event's occurrence.
In the Create new event dialog select the Activate Production Status In The Event's End check box.
Select the production status to activate from the Production Status drop-down list.
Fill in the other fields of the event you're creating.
Click Save Changes.
