Important Features of Manufacturing Data Collection Software

Clock-In / Clock-Out

Scan employee badges and production tickets to clock-in to production operations. Scan again to clock out of the operation reporting setup or production time and quantities scrapped or produced. Improve shop floor data collection and job costing with multi-job clock-in and clock-out activities for time and cost allocation to multiple jobs.

Supervisor Review

Scanned transactions can optionally be reviewed by supervisors facilitating data correction prior to posting to the database.

Device Agnostic

Works with mobile iPhone/iOS, Android devices, and scanners supporting internet connections.

Default Settings
