Welcome, now we are going to take a look at basic scheduling and planning in our system. From our case management screen we’ll select our job that's ready to be planned in order to plan it must be on the planning or scheduling status.If it's in the order status the information hasn't been populated yet for the planning system. Once the job is sent to planning for the status the job is ready to be scheduled. In order to schedule we’ll select our requested delivery date and time on July 3rd. And then we'll hit planning, in our job line. This brings up our planning screen. On a screen we see each of the areas each of the cost centers that the job needs to run through in other words this is going to run our digital press with finishing shipping prepress work, proofs to the customer and we can see that it currently has a status of not planned. If we look at the time we have our calculated total time according to the estimate and then a roughly planned play to start based on the job due date. We have the ability to plan from several different modes such as the order start date the order delivery date the date that it needs to be at the customer any bottlenecks if we have a slow piece of equipment or an area where things get backed up we can schedule from there we can also plan from the start and the end of the job. In our case we're going to plan from our start date and so we’ll select our start date of tomorrow which is July 1st. And then we hit “order plan” on “start date”. Now you’ll notice that our times show variable planned for our prepress, our press room and our finishing and shipping departments. For the proof out and the stock available, those are not planned. You can manually plan those if you have if you have the knowledge of the dates when that will be done. In this case the job is scheduled to run at 11 a.m. tomorrow in our prepress department and it should be on press by 1:10, 1:12 tomorrow afternoon. We can also see that it updated our roughly planned dates from 7.2.2020 to 7.1.2020 and it shows us when it's going to be roughly planned to be complete. If we manually change that it will manually it will check the box it says manual planned time. We also have the ability to view whether or not the job has been started or completed in our shop floor system. If you'd like to manually Mark those you can come in and check started to manually show that it's been started in the system. And completed will show that it's been manually completed. If your status codes are set up correctly then the checking of completed will move the job along to the next status in the system. And we can see here that now that the job is planned and started in our prepress department. If we come back to our status code and select completed our status code is changed to print. So the job moves through the shop and through the status codes based on our status in our production plan.
