Operations Overview
Our Operations Loom includes essential tools and data needed for warehouse leadership and staff.
The main Ops data tables include: Projects, Preps, Returns, Workload and their corresponding widgets.
Ops widgets include: Projects, Preps, Preps Countdown, Returns, Returns Countdown, Scans Countdown, Warehouse Workload Meter, Top Scanner, and Unavailable Units.
Users can easily build customized dashboards and configure Ops widgets to promote productivity by showing the "big picture" view at a glance.
The Warehouse Workload Meter widget and Workload page are the perfect example of a bigger picture glance! These workload metrics are determined by your warehouse's maximum prep, return and scan amounts to provide a full workload overview, gauged in customizable meter levels. The Workload page delivers a bi-weekly view of future warehouse workload.
Each Ops page has a table view that provides a list of events and allows users to filter by detail. Double-clicking the element's name from a table will redirect to Flex for more details and further action. Selecting the table settings allows users to configure visible table columns and default sort order. Most Ops data filters via the Locations drop-down in the top right header. Preps and Returns tables and corresponding widgets are equipped with progress bars that include color indicating urgency; hover over a progress bar to view more details about the prep percentage and time until the due date. Additionally, the Preps table and widget includes a column with Weather at Venue details.
Returns is now equipped with a Manifest Rollover. Once a checkbox is selected from the Returns table, select the Rollover button to roll the manifest end date forward. Users may configure the number of hours to roll a manifest by selecting the 3 dot table menu.
The Projects page table displays all Flex projects; users may filter to view their own projects by selecting the My Projects tab. Select the table settings to edit visible columns or edit contact types. By default, only projects with an enabled contact association as Responsible Person are included, but users may toggle other enabled contact types. Contact types include: Created By User, Responsible Person, Project Manager and Technical Director. The contact association must be enabled for an element in Flex in order for it to populate to the Projects page or widget.
