The alternative is to navigate to MAIN MENU - PRODUCTIVITY - CAPTURE CUT LUMBER.

 

 

From the Capture Cut page, details can be added:

An optional step is to add an order by selecting the ADD ORDER action button.  Existing orders will show, that can be selected.  This will link the order to this production. 

An employee is selected from the list or can be found by typing the name into the search bar.

Once the employee has been selected, the items to be cut can be added. 

These can be selected from the list or found by typing the name into the search bar. 

The items shown will correspond to previously entered stock items. They are the source, not the product.  This means this is the lumber that will be cut down in size. 

The list will separate SCHEDULED items at the top, in a different colour code. These are items that were assigned to the chosen employee's schedule. 

There is also an option to SCAN BARCODES of items, using the action button.  

If no items appear, add items by using the CREATE NEW STOCK ITEM button. 

 

 

When an item has been selected, the quantity can be captured. 

Scheduled cuts will have a starting number which can be modified, if needed. 

Unscheduled cuts will need a quantity inputted. 

The plus and minus buttons can be used either side of the quantity bar. There is also an option to add multiples using the action buttons under the quantity bar.

Once completed, select NEXT. 

 

The next step is to select Item to Cut to.  This means the size the lumber will be cut into.

The list will only show sizes smaller than the Item to Cut.  

Multiple items can be selected using the ADD ANOTHER ITEM action button.

There is also an option to SCAN BARCODES of items, using the action button.  

If no items appear, add items by using the CREATE NEW STOCK ITEM button.  

 

When an item has been selected, the quantity can be inputted.  The plus and minus buttons can be used either side of the quantity bar. There is also an option to add multiples using the action buttons under the quantity bar.

The system will provide a starting number calculated using the board foot of the Item to be cut.  This number may need to be revised if the cut is odd/not even. 

Once completed, select SAVE.
