		</AimSection>
		<GeneralSection><Paragraph>In a company, often a shop floor planner is responsible for the production planning of products on one or more work centers. Therefore, a shop floor planner must perform several work center related tasks. To execute these tasks the shop floor planner needs access to work center and production planning related data in an orderly way. The <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc1501m000" role="session">Work Centers Dashboard (timfc1501m000)</GUIRef> session provides this data.</Paragraph>
		</GeneralSection>
		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>How to use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc1501m000" role="session">Work Centers Dashboard (timfc1501m000)</GUIRef> session</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>If you select a work center in the work center list in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc1501m000" role="session">Work Centers Dashboard (timfc1501m000)</GUIRef> session, information about the work center is displayed in the header, in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc1501m000#timfc1501m000.01" role="groupbox">Work Center Details</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>The check marks under <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc1501m000#tisfc.docs" role="groupbox">Documents</GUIRef> indicate if data is available for the work center. If you click a link, a session is started in which you can view, maintain, process or create the work center related data.</Paragraph>
			<List><ListIntro>You can click the following links:</ListIntro>

Shop floor order-schedules are displayed for a specific week. Detailed information can be viewed, such as operation, operation status, machine hours, and man hours. This data is very important for planners. They can see work center progress, and based on this detailed information, take action.</ListItem>

				</ListItemHead>
				<ListItem>Click to start the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc3510m000" role="session">Work Center Input/Output Control (tisfc3510m000)</Link> session. Input/output control can be used to judge how efficiently your work centers are operating. The input/output figures are expressed in number of hours. If the actual input is less then the planned input, not enough work is at a work center or machine, which leads to poor productivity. An actual output that is less then the planned output can indicate problems at a work center or machine. The difference between input and output is the queue. To ensure a continuous production flow in the work center a planner aims at a minimum amount of work waiting at a work center, which is called the desired queue. Based on all this information a shop floor planner can take corrective actions.</ListItem>
				<ListItemHead><GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc1501m000#generate.io.control.b" role="formcommand">Generate I/O control</GUIRef>

The resource plan displays the planned capacity usage of a specific work center on the mid-long term. The resource plan takes into account planned orders (not yet transferred), and already transferred orders.

If the actual input is less then the planned input, not enough work is at a work center or machine, which leads to poor productivity. An actual output that is less then the planned output can indicate problems at a work center or machine. The difference between input and output is the queue. To ensure a continuous production flow in the work center a planner aims at a minimum amount of work waiting at a work center, which is called the desired queue. Based on all this information a shop floor planner can take corrective actions.</FuncDesc>

The resource plan displays the planned capacity usage of a specific work center on the mid-long term. The resource plan takes into account planned orders (not yet transferred), and already transferred orders. This data is important for shop floor planners because based on this data they can take action in an early stage, even before shop floor orders are created.</FuncDesc>
