Steps for Collecting Pool Workflow #

To start production, refer to the Live Production Workflow Guide. Production must be started in the Live Production module before any operations in the collecting pool.

Depending on the material type, the workflow varies:

• Foam Box or Blue Containers:
  • The system will prompt a modal to enter the Box Quantity or Block Quantity.
  • Enter the required quantity and click Start Production to push the material into production.

  • For materials in iTubes, no modal appears. Clicking the Check Icon directly pushes the iTube material into production.

Access the History Tab to review all completed operations, including:

• Material check-ins.
• Production start and completion logs.
• Reserved and processed material records.
