The article outlines clear instructions on how to configure tasks for production use within the Sync system, specifically for the Production Planning Board (PPB).
PURPOSE
The Production Planning Board uses three essential task types from a job that must be configured within a process template:
Online Step – Only one step can be marked as Online.
Offline Step – Only one step can be marked as Offline.
Delivery Step – This step is typically already configured, as it is required for all process templates.
KEY BENEFITS
