CIMPLICITYPRT Overview Graphic
The following (non-scale) diagram illustrates the primary concepts behind Production Tracking.
| 1 | Region Entry Point | Point where a device informs the tracking model that a particular item has entered the region. |
| 2 | Region Location | Physical area within a region that holds items; more than one item can reside in a region location. |
| 3 | Region | Bounded by devices at entry and exit points. |
| 4 | Region Exit Point | Point where a device informs the tracking model that a particular item has exited the region. |
| 5 | Item and Attributes | Part/Assembly in the manufacturing process. |
| 6 | Group | Holds regions that are either physically or functionally associated - all regions must belong to a group. Welder Lines 1 and 2 are functionally grouped together. |
| 7 | Item Type | Parts with similar characteristics are logically grouped together, as with parts in Welder Lines 1 and 2. |
| 8 | Operator Interface | Points where the operator can interact with the tracking system. |
| 9 | Route | An item's region to region progress through the production process |
