Creating a Waste Event

A waste event is a material loss associated with a specific production event or the loss is calculated over time.

You can create two types of events to track waste – time-based and production-based. Using the Waste app, you can:

track the amount of waste that was generated
identify the type of waste
assign a reason for generation of the waste
