Operations Analysis​

  • The following functions have been deprecated and replaced by new system.kanoa.event.getAssetProductionEvents() functions:

    • system.kanoa.event.getWorkOrderSummary()
    • system.kanoa.event.getProductionEvents()
    • system.kanoa.event.getProductionEventSummary()
    • system.kanoa.event.getProductionEventsByShift()

  • The following stored procedures have been removed and replaced by spGetAssetProductionEvents:

    • [mes].[spGetProductionData]
    • [mes].[spGetProductionDataByShift]
    • [mes].[spGetProductionDataSummary]

  • Shift Counts do not match non shift counts The stored procedure spGetAssetProductionEventsByShift has been modified to now check if any count events (values) were received for the entire modeEvent, before trying to calculate a value for the shift. As an example, this means if no waste counts were seen for the entire production order, then waste counts will be calculated for each shift. If a waste count value was entered though, then no waste counts will be calculated for that production order. Styling has been added to the counts in the Run Review table. Counts are broken into thousands with commas, if a count is calculated it is bold and italicized, if it is waste, it is red and if it is a negative number (indicating a problem with the counts coming in, it is orange).

Selectors​

  • system.kanoa.date.getDateRange() has been corrected to fix 'Today' range.

Operator Screen​

  • Cannot start production run on assets with a _runSetupViewPath set. This has been fixed.
  • Standard Rate to be applied to a production run can now be set and stored at runtime. modeEvent table now stores run specific stdRate value.

Editing Operations​

  • Run Review doesn't show any data if no shifts are configured and the 'By Shift' selector is on (which it is by default). This is now working. There was an issue with the date selector getDateRange() function. By default, 'By Shift' is no longer selected.
  • Add Mode button is displayed when no asset is selected. This is fixed.

Simulator​

  • Simulator configuration has been documented. See Simulator for more details.

Styles​

  • Add new charting variables to CSS themes and update Apex Charts to use them.
