Table Operation

If you do not have a connector set up, you can see an example here.

Before installing the workflows, it is required to create several Global Flow Properties within Novacura Flow Studio.

Installation

Make sure that you have created all connectors and Flow properties before importing the workflows.

1. Import Workflows

Import workflows in the file "Shop floor Reporting Cloud.wap."

For details see Import Workflows

2. Setting Menu Roles

Together with the imported workflows, there will also be a menu. Connect the menu to your roles to make them available for users.

For details see Setting Menu Roles

3. Publishing Workflows

Within the Server Contents Window right click on the folder and select “Publish.” This process can take a few minutes but once complete, a Publish Successful message will be displayed.

If you receive any errors during the publication of the workflow. Please review the error detail and consult your support contact with the relevant information.

The workflows will now be available to execute on your chosen Flow client. For instructions on individual shop floor reporting functions, please consult the function individual documentation provided separately.

For details see Publishing Workflows

In the downloaded .zip file, you can find a ShopFloorReporting.ptl file. You need to import the Portal Page to Portal 2 with this file.

4. Import Portal Page

Before Importing Portal Page, ensure your User has access to one of the roles configured on the Menu in the previous steps. If the user does not have access to this Menu, some workflows will not show up on the subsequent mapping process.

  • Log in to Portal with a user who has AdministerBasicData access level

  • Click the Edit mode to open the edit pane

  • Go to the Navigation tab

  • Click Import button

  • Find the ShopFloorReporting.ptl file, check all the mapped flows and click Import

  • Page import finished

  • Open the edit pane again, open the Roles list, and add a role to the Shop Floor Reporting page
