Clock Off a Serial/Lot for an Operation

Before you begin

Ensure that you have the permission to perform this task. For more information, refer to Security.

Procedure

  1. In the Work Queue page, in the row containing the operation on which you want to stop working, select OFF.
    Note: The OFF button is enabled only if you have clocked on at least one serial/lot in the operation.
    The Select Serial number(s) to clock off window appears, displaying a list of serials/lots in the operation that you have clocked on.
  2. If you want to clock off all the available serials/lots, select the check box in the heading column of the table.
  3. If you want to clock off selected serials/lots, perform one of the following steps:
    • Select the check box for each serial/lot that you want to clock off.
    • Search for a serial/lot by entering the value in the Search in available serial numbers box, and then select the check boxes from the filtered list that appears.
    • Scan the bar code of the serial/lot by selecting .
    Note: By default, during Plant Application installation, LotsToExecute is set to 50, so you can only clock off 50 serials/lots at a time. If you want to change the value, you must edit the LotsToExecute property and set a new numerical value.
    If you have installed Enterprise Plant Applications Web Client, this parameter is available in the following file:
    <installation_path>/PlantApplicationsDocker/plantapps-web-docker/mnt/configfiles/workqueue-app/prod/<version>/workqueue-app-prod.properties
    After you change the value of the parameter, run the following Docker commands to restart the Work Queue application:
    • sudo docker service scale PAContainer_workqueue-app=0
    • sudo docker service scale PAContainer_workqueue-app=1
    If you have installed Standard Plant Applications Web Client, this parameter is available in the following file:
    C:\Program Files\GE Digital\PlantApplicationsWebClient\config-repo\workqueue-app\prod\<version>\workqueue-app-prod.properties
    After you change the values of parameters, restart the Work Queue application.
  4. Select Clock off.

Results

  • The selected serials/lots are clocked off. In the Work Queue page, the number of serials/lots that are clocked on is updated in the OFF/ON column.
  • When you clock off all the serials/lots of a work order that previously had all the serials/lots clocked-on, the labor type of the work order displayed in the header is changed to the default value.
Important: The Clock on/off button will not appear, if you modify the BEHAVIOR of an operation to Non Clocking in the Attributes tab of a route in the Route Editor application.
