Label Engine Administration
Labels are critical to the overall manufacturing process. 42Q understands this need and has worked to develop a system for label creation, edition, and sharing.
The Label Engine tool empowers users to control the label design and implementation process. It also provides users and their teams with a shared library of designs to further reduce the overall effort to establish a new label.
There is tremendous value in self-service functionality and in site-to-site collaboration. 42Q has made a significant step in both of these areas with the release of the Label Engine and is working on similar capabilities throughout the MES suite.
Label Engine Administration is responsible for System Configuration. In this portlet, Administrators can do the following:
Add/Edit and Delete a Customer, Printer, or Database;
Load a Database;
Token Creation;
Application Configuration;
