Change Production.
In the dialog you can register below changes:
- Start Machine Time - Enabled only if machine time is not ongoing.
- Stop Machine Time - Enabled only if machine time is ongoing.
- Change Resource - Enabled only if machine time is ongoing.
- Start Labor Time - Enabled only if labor time is not ongoing.
- Stop Labor Time - Enabled only if labor time is ongoing.
- Change Crew Size - Enabled only if labor time is ongoing and Reporting Mode has been
set to Anonymous Reporting on the used site.

You can also change the clocking note if required.
Prerequisites
- A production (runtime) activity must have been started on the operation.
- To change production for more than one operation, they must have been started in the same clocking
sequence.
- The Crew Size can only be modified if Reporting Mode has been set to Anonymous Reporting
on the used site.
- Employees can only be changed if Reporting Mode has been set to Employee Reporting on the used
site.
- If an employee qualification requirement exists for the operation, and the qualification check for the site
is mandatory, then the reporting employee(s) must have those qualifications.
System Effects
- If Start Machine Time is enabled, a new machine clocking sequence will be created with the start time
recorded on it. (See Start Production activity for details)
- If Stop Machine Time is enabled, the machine clocking sequence will be updated with a stop time. An
operation history transaction will be created per operation with the elapsed time recorded on it. (See Stop
Production activity for details)
- If Change Resource is enabled, the machine clocking will be stopped and one operation
history transaction will be created per operation with the elapsed time recorded on it. A new machine clocking
sequence will be created carrying the new resource value and the start time. (See Start/Stop Production
activities for details).
- If Start Labor Time is enabled new labor clocking(s) will be created.
- In anonymous mode one clocking record will be created per operation with the value in the Crew
Size field and the start time recorded on it.
- In employee mode, one clocking record per record in the Employees list and operation
will be created. (See Start Production activity for details)
- If Stop Labor Time is enabled, ongoing labor clocking(s) for the operation will be updated
with a stop time. One labor operation history transaction for each clocking will be created with the elapsed time
recorded on it. (See Stop Production activity for details)
- If Change Crew Size is enabled, the labor clocking will be stopped and one operation history
transaction will be created per operation. A new labor clocking sequence will be created carrying the new crew
size value and time start time. (See Stop Production activity for details)
- If Change Employees is enabled, the labor clocking(s) for the removed employees will be be
updated with a stop time and one labor operation history transaction per clocking will be created with the
elapsed time recorded on it. One new labor clocking per added employee and operation will be created.
