The dispatch list
Lesson 138 of 188 · 12 min
Open the dispatch list as a production operator. Show filtering by work center and work area, expand a work order to see operations, show the operator's view of what to do next and the information available — quantities, materials, instructions — then show the same list for a different work center. This is the operator's entire interface. Everything designed in the work centers and work definitions modules — work center names, operation descriptions, sequence — appears here. Design them for this screen. With a badly-named work center visible, the point lands instantly. Sign in as an actual operator user. The role difference matters, and it demonstrates the security work — which you built against an empty system and have not seen used since.
