SFDC Configuration

42Q’s powerful data collection system collects critical information from a plant’s shop floor, utilizing shop floor data collector, an intuitive tool developed by 42Q’s experienced manufacturing team. The aggregate information is stored in a cloud database, and available to MESWeb, where quality reports are generated. The 42Q system uses manual and automated barcode scanning to collect data for a product line or plant. Thus, 42Q plays an important role in maintaining unit histories and directing product movement on the manufacturing floor. The current version of 42Q includes configuration capabilities, which provide access to all sub-modules pages and their functionalities (view, add, edit, print/generate output files).

To access SFDC Configuration, navigate to Shop Floor Control > Configuration > SFDC Configuration. The main SFDC Configuration page is displayed:
