Scenarios

• For processing the order within the time defined by the customer, an order is to be distributed onto a sufficient number of machines.
• For this purpose the dispatcher checks the work load of the machines that can knit the pattern from a technical point of view.
• The dispatcher does'nt want to select the machines individually, but distribute the order evenly among all the machines.
• The dispatcher selects certain quantity of concrete machines and assigns the order to these machines.
• The dispatcher releases the order after the planning is correct.
• After it the dispatcher gets the progress of his order displayed.
• One of the machines is affected by a technical defect that cannot be eliminated fast enough.
• The operator takes the partial order out of the production changing its status to Complete.
• Before the error, 21 of 100 sweaters were completely produced. This is registered in the order data record, which is sent back to the STOLL PPS.
• The dispatcher is informed by the STOLL PPS about the premature ending of the production on one machine and exchanges information by phone with the operator.
• Since the problem is going to last for the next hours and the completion date of the order is in danger, the dispatcher withdraws the order from the machine.
• The order is scheduled and released for another machine with an adapted piece number. The new order receives a new production ID from the STOLL PPS.
• Several orders with the released status are waiting for the selected machine to be produced.
• The dispatcher realizes that the already released orders can be produced later-on with the new machine, since there are non-assigned time periods until their production deadline.
• The dispatcher releases the cancelled order with the remaining 79 pieces on the selected machine and moves it before the already released orders.
• The machine processes the order that is currently in production and produces the new order as the next one.
• The dispatcher controls the timeline of the parent order. The data of the single orders are grouped in this representation.
• After some hours the forecasted end time for the entire order, suddenly jumps 15 hours ahead. The delivery date established by the customer is in danger.
• Via the latest possible end date registered in the entire order, theSTOLL PPS recognizes that the delivery date is at risk.
• The dispatcher will be informed via the notification system.
• The senior operator receives this notification via SMS.
  Immediately, he checks on his tablet, which of the suborders caused this delay.
• Since the machine is nearby, he walks to the operator and finds out that he has been awaiting the yarn for 20 minutes.
