Week 17 | 2026

Operators can now set a target quantity when creating ad-hoc production schedules from the tablet, unlocking the added features available on planned schedules. This enables:

  • Real-time progress tracking — see live completion percentage and units remaining during ad-hoc runs (eg. Cockpit)

  • Production forecasting — estimated completion times are now available for ad-hoc schedules, just as they are for planned orders (eg. Production Progress Dashboard)

General Updates:

  • Utilisation Improvements — Utilisation in the Hierarchy Explorer has been broken down into clearly defined columns — Total Considered Time, Productive Time, and Utilisation % — with hover tooltips explaining what each value represents and how it is calculated. The Pulse Chart also now includes a new hover tooltip.

  • Trend Viewer — Asset Utilisation — The Asset Utilisation metric now reports in productive time (in the chosen Duration Format eg. Mins or Hours, Mins) instead of percentage. Utilisation % is now included as a standard summary metric across all Trend Viewer metrics.

  • Configurable Week Start Day per Plant — Each plant can now have its own week start day, so weekly reports and date ranges align with your actual production week.

  • Station Filtering on Analysis Pages — Cycle time analysis, production by SKU, and production by work order reference pages now support filtering by group and individual stations.

  • Date Range Filtering on Station Notes — Station notes can now be filtered by date range, with CSV exports respecting the selected period.
