Stop Machine Downtime

Explanation

Use this activity to register that downtime has stopped on a work center resource.

To stop downtime from the Shop Floor Workbench page:

Click Stop Downtime.
Select the work center to stop downtime for in the Work Center field. You can select from any of the work centers valid for the shop floor workbench filter currently used with ongoing downtime. If only one work center with ongoing downtime exists for the filter, this will appear by default.
Select the work center resource on which the downtime should be registered in the Resource field. You can select from any of the resources valid for the shop floor workbench filter currently used with ongoing downtime. If only one resource with ongoing downtime exists for the filter, this will appear by default.
Optionally, enter a note in the Clocking Note field.

To stop downtime from the Time Clock client:

Click Stop Downtime and enter the Employee or Team.
Select the Work Center to stop downtime for from the list.
Select the Resource to stop downtime for from the list.
Note: Depending on the Time Clock configuration, some of these fields may be automatically filled with default data and thereby the fields may be disabled or unavailable for editing.

An ongoing downtime clocking must exist.
To stop downtime from shop floor workbench, an ongoing downtime clocking must exist for at least one of the work center resources valid for the filter currently being used.

The machine downtime clocking record for the selected work center resource will receive a stop time and duration of the clocking interval is calculated. The calculation depends on the selected downtime cause:
- No downtime cause, downtime cause with OEE Factor = Schedule Loss or Availability Loss: Only time intervals that falls into the defined work center calendar working time are considered. The result is divided per workday and one machine downtime history transaction (MCH_DOWN) per workday is created.
- Downtime cause with OEE Factor = Performance Loss: Time intervals that falls outside the defined work center calendar working time are considered according to the Calendar Consideration option selected on the site. One machine downtime history transaction (MCH_DOWN) is created.
A machine downtime history transaction (MCH_DOWN) is created.
If a machine downtime clocking duration is less than or equal to the Max Duration for Auto Registration value set for the site on the Downtime Causes page, the machine downtime clocking will automatically be registered with the corresponding downtime cause in case there is not already a downtime cause registered.
