When creating a new line in the Production module, it takes me multiple passes to get every setting to stick.
[color=#FF0000]Edit: If this is more appropriate in the MES forum, feel free to move. Sorry about that![/color]
Steps taken:
- Right click on area > New MES Item > New MES Line
- Configure each tab of new line (General, OEE, Downtime, Schedule are the tabs I care about)
- Save Global changes, all clients restart
- The following changes did not “stick” and I must configure each tab individually and save for each tab’s changes:
OEE Tab:
-Primary Infeed dropdown
-Primary Outfeed dropdown
-Waste Calculation Method dropdown
-Ignore Changeover Overrun Production checkbox
Downtime Tab:
-Downtime Detection Method dropdown
-State SQL Tag text field
-Run Disabled Reason Code text field
-Changeover Overrun Reason Code text field
Schedule Tab:
-Production After Changeover checkbox
Obviously this is not ideal, as each save causes our production model to stop/start and all our clients restart. I am trying to promote 4 new MES lines (and 5 cells, which has the same problem), which will necessitate clients restarting dozens of times to fully configure the changes to the new production model if this is something I must do.
Is this a bug, or am I missing something obvious here? Here’s my versioning info:
