How to Add default Planned Mixed Product Production
Demo
Mixed product production enabled one cut spec to be mixed with another cut spec, most often for the purpose of dumping accumulated material with another cut spec to be sold. (The product on the right side of the page is what's actually going to be sold)
Step 1: Navigate to the "Planned Mixed Products" page (Under the Planning menu → Planning Rules Config → Planned Mixed Products).
Step 2: Select a day of the week from the dropdown list that you want to add a planned mixed products record for using the "Day of Week" dropdown list.
Step 3: Click the "Add" button in the actions panel.
Step 4: This opens some temporary tabs at the bottom of the screen where information about the mixed product can be entered. Choose the shift (using the dropdown list) that the planned mixed product should be added to, select a source cut spec from the dropdown list, then select a target cut spec from the remaining dropdown list. (This means that for the selected shift on the selected day, accumulation of the source cut spec will be combined with and sold as the target cut spec.) You can also add comments regarding the mixed product on the "Comments" tab.
Step 5: To save the mixed product, click "Save" in the actions panel. If you don't wish to save your changes, click the "Undo" button to revert your changes without saving them.
Step 6: You also have the option of copying existing mixed products to different days. To do this, click "Copy Selected" to copy the singular, selected mixed product to a different day/shift or "Copy All" to copy all the mixed products on the selected day to a different day/shift. You'll then be asked which days you want to copy to and the shifts on those days, after selecting at least one day and shift, click "OK" to copy the mixed products.
Step 7: To delete mixed products, click on the mixed product that you want to delete (it will be highlighted in orange), then click the "Delete" button in the actions panel.
Step 8: A confirmation dialog will appear to ask if you're sure that you want to delete the mixed product, click "OK" to delete it, or click "Cancel" if you don't want to delete it and the dialog will close.
