Work Instructions Templates buttonImage Removed

A work instruction (also referred to as work guide, job aid, standard operating procedure, or visual aid as it's commonly referred to in FactoryLogix) is a document that describes to shop floor personnel how a part or assembly should be built, often using both text-based instructions and visual aids such as diagrams or photos.

In FactoryLogix, an Active Work Instruction is an interactive document that can include color-coded parts lists or BOM blocks (detailed parts list), smart text, graphics, callouts, and video. Shop floor personnel use Active Work Instructions to complete specific tasks in a manufacturing process. 

In the FactoryLogix Office client application, you can create Active Work Instruction templates. These templates save time by eliminating the need to document new work instructions each time a new product or product revision is built. Using templates also helps you provide consistent instructions for shop floor personnel.
