Action Handler & Tracking (SCM-APO-PPS-AHT)

Component within the APO system used for automatically or manually executing actions before or during production.

With automated processing, the system executes actions automatically with all planned orders as soon as they reach a specified action point in the course of production (printing of shop papers, production tracking, backflushing etc.).

With manual processing, the user executes actions manually with reference to individual planned orders during pre-production in a controlled form (ATP check for components must precede release of orders etc.).
