Q: What are some of the typical uses of Production Tracker?A: Production schedulers use Production Tracker to register scheduled activities. The scheduler enters activity data via data entry screens. Alternatively, activities may be imported directly from scheduling applications.
Activities are reviewed and executed by process operators, who can enter additional operating data such as target flow rates, equipment names or more precise activity start or stop times.
In addition, Production Tracker serves as an enhanced operator’s electronic logbook, which can simplify the task of logging all types of material movements. These movement transactions include material receipts, shipments, blends, unit feeds and rundowns, tank-to-tank transfers, additive additions and water drain-offs.
Q: Is Production Tracker part of a family of Honeywell solutions?A: Yes. Production Tracker is a part of Honeywell's Blending and Shipping solution suite, a package of software and services that optimally plans, schedules, and monitors blending and shipping performance and sets priorities on deviations compared to plan. It enables manufacturing and shipping of finished products on time, on spec, and at lowest cost.
