SFDC Configuration
As its name implies, the Shop Floor Data Collection (SFDC) system is responsible for the collection of data from the shop floor. The collected information is then stored in the Manufacturing Execution System (MES). Specifically, the real-time information collected by SFDC is utilized by Reporting and MES Web to create quality control reports. The SFDC system uses manual and automated barcode scanning to monitor and collect data for a product line or plant. Thus SFDC plays an important role in maintaining unit histories and directing product movement on the manufacturing floor.
The system provides Access Control between the modules of the application, including the portlet of each screen. The current SFDC Configuration page provides access to all sub modules pages and their functions (view, add, edit, delete, print and generate output file).
To access SFDC Configuration, navigate to Shop Floor Control > Configuration > SFDC Configuration. The main SFDC Configuration page is displayed:
