How Can We Help?
Shop paperwork (cut lists, labels, glass orders, packing lists) prints at the station where it is
needed. A report prints at a station when it is assigned to that line + station. Customer documents (quotes,
order acknowledgements) are different: they are attached to a print panel instead.
Before you start
- Lines, stations and their routing exist (Set up production lines and
stations). Only stations on a line’s route appear in the tree. - For exceptions per series, the series exists (Set up a new series).
- The report template file (.jasper) is installed. Your OpenJanela provider supplies the standard ones.
Steps: register a shop report
- Open Administration and Setup → OJ Setup → REPORTS → Prod Station Reports,
Report Setup tab. It lists the production reports. - Click New (or select a report and Edit). Name = the template file name, Description
= the name users see, Printer, File Type, Save Dir. Tick Prod (it must be ticked to
appear at stations), and For Parts or For Grids if it is a parts or grid document. Save. - Report rights and parameters are set on OJ Setup → REPORTS → Report Management. If a report
prints 0 pages, check its Report Parameters tab there: a report registered with no parameters prints
nothing.
Steps: assign it to a station
- Open the Reports by Production Stations tab.
- In the tree, open the line and click the station.
- Click Edit. Tick Used on each report this station prints, then Print (straight to a
printer) and/or File (written to a file), and type a Printer / Station if it should not use the
report’s default printer. - Click Save. Repeat for each station.
Rows marked as inherited come from the same station on the parent line: assign a report once on the parent
line and every sub-line shows it. Inherited rows are read-only here. The Add Report button does nothing yet;
create the report on the Report Setup tab instead.
Steps: hold a report back for one series
- With the station selected, click Exceptions.
- Pick the Series and the Report, click Add, then Close. That report no longer prints
at this line and station for that series.
Customer documents and messages
- Quotes and order acknowledgements: on Report Management, Reports by Panel tab, move
Order Document Report (and Confirm Order, Quote – Order) into the assigned list, and tick Default on
the report. See Reports by panel and Printing a customer
document. - Text and pictures per document type: REPORTS → Messages & Documents. See
Announcements and Messages & Documents.
Prod ticked; it is ticked Used on that line and station (or the parent line); there is no exception for
the series; the station is on the line’s route; and the parts really go to that station (a set station rule above
them that is inactive sends them to the previous station).
Check it worked
- Finalize the smoke-test batch (Check a new setup works): each station’s reports
print or are written to its folder. - The Reports by Production Stations tab shows the ticks you saved after you reselect the station.
