Working with the Parts List

All parts ordered from a Service are listed on the Parts list. It represents a single overview of the entire production volume that needs to be manufactured. Clicking one of the rows of the parts list table will open the associated part detail page (see also https://3yourmind.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PD/pages/1059323909).

The column Part # contains a hyperlink. You can use right-click or CMD-click to open parts in a new tab.

Sorting and Filtering the Parts List

You can quickly sort and filter the parts list to compare what to produce first and how you need to schedule them.

  1. Finished parts are hidden by default - by activating the Show finished parts filter all parts can be shown in the parts list

  2. Click on the Edit Columns menu to customize the displayed columns according to your needs. You can freely arrange the activated columns by drag and drop.

  3. Use the Search field to find specific types of information.

  4. Customize the view with filters:

    • the filters you apply will be saved for the current session, you can switch to the order page and get back to the parts list, your chosen filters will still be applied

    • applied filters are saved in the URL of the parts list, bookmark the current URL to open the parts list with the saved filters applied at any time

Est. Finished Date

Calculated production finish date of a part.

The estimated finish date is compared to the target date to give feedback on potential delays of the current production schedule.

If all sequences of a part are scheduled then the Est. finish date is automatically calculated following the formula:

Est. finish date = job_end_time + SUM of all following workflow step durations

This date is automatically re-calculated if jobs or workflow steps are updated.

The Est. Finished Date is not calculated if there is no job or the job is not scheduled.

yes

Target Date

The Target Date describes when the production of a part is expected to be finished.

Under certain conditions the date is calculated automatically - but it can always be overwritten or filled in manually.

For the target date to be calculated automatically, the following needs to be true:

  • all sequences of a part are scheduled

  • the Target Date is still empty

The calculation of the Target Date is according to this formula:

Target date = job_end_time + SUM of all following workflow step durations

This date is not re-calculated if jobs or workflow steps are updated.
