Ignition Version: 7.9.20 Sepasoft OEE Downtime Version: 3.79.3 I am trying to setup the sepasoft OEE module and need to handle the following scenario: We have one line, Line 1, and 3 cells, Cell 1, Cell 2, and Cell 3. For some part numbers produced on the line, we need all 3 cells while for others we only need Cell 1 and Cell 3, but we don't want Cell 2 to impact OEE negatively or muddy reports with downtime info when its state does not matter for these part numbers. Is there a built-in way to maybe change Cell 2 into Disable mode when certain part numbers are being built? If not, is there a recommended way of handling this from sepasoft people? Should i just try running some sort of tag change event script and automatically set the equipment mode to Disable or Production for Cell 2? ---

Materials are assigned at the line level so it will assume all cells are used - I doubt there would be an inbuilt way to disable one. A script is likely your best bet. ---

Thanks for the reply, Amy! Ok, I will do that. I thought I had read something at some point on how sepasoft supported this use-case, but i must have hallucinated it. ---

This may be what you are remembering. You can disable that cell for specific material by setting its Production Mode to Disabled in the Material Manager [Material Routing](https://docs.sepasoft.com/articles/#!user-manual/configure-routing-by-material) ---

There it is! Thank you. You just saved me a bunch of headaches.
