Function | Description |
|---|---|
Change Part Number | Allows you to change an existing part number quickly when scanning material already known to the system. For example, your factory might support part numbers for existing materials that are required to use brackets or specific part number suffixes in inventory. |
Dispatch Management | Allows dispatch managers to effectively track and assign any pending transport orders and fulfill equipment requests. You can assign (dispatch) transport equipment and ensure the proper materials and equipment are moved correctly and efficiently throughout the factory. |

Label Inventory | Allows you to view the list of required part numbers to be changed and to perform the Change Part Number action for multiple UIDs. A table lists the available inventory changes including the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), ownership, and part number changes. Note A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) identifies important details behind each activity in the manufacturing process. Project managers can use WBS information to eliminate unknowns and to identify variables that could impact manufacturing progress. Please note that WBS information can only be added to FactoryLogix by using an xTend integration. |
