Use

Use this function if you want to display where the dispatched orders are situated on the production line at a particular time. The control view shows the complete production line including the sort buffers in a column of the sequence schedule. The production line is split into the visualization segments of the control which you can define in the line hierarchy. In each visualization segment, the sequence schedule displays the order bars of the orders that are currently being processed.

The control view also displays a queue of orders waiting to be produced at the beginning of the production line and all the completed orders at the end of the production line.
