Summary​

We skipped a release version because who wants to update to a software version called 13? and as much as we wanted to continue with updates to the 1.12 release, there are enough significant changes to warrant a new version number.

  • Added support for Batch and continuous processes.
  • Added inheritable OEE Thresholds to support Enterprise level OEE scoring.

As we prepare the platform to support manufacturing processes such as batch and continuous as well as discrete, we had to make some refactoring choices that may affect existing installs where certain views have been overridden. If this is a fisrt time install, then install away. If you are going to update an existing install, here is a list of changes and views that have been touched.

mes.assets table

  • 'oeeType' column has been replaced with column 'oeeEnabled'
  • 'processTypeId' column has been added
  • 'oee', 'a', 'p', 'q', 'tgtThreshold' and offsetMins' columns have been removed

The following views have been modified to replace 'oeeType' and 'oeeTypeList' with 'oeeEnabled'.

If you have any of these views overridden, they will need to be modified.

We are working on a utility that you can use in future releases that will check you custom work and identify views and scripts that will need to be adjusted.

Feel free to submit a support ticket if you would like help with updating from a previous version. As always we recommend you installing on a dev server prior t deploying to production.

System functions

system.kanoa.item.addItemUnit() was changed to return a tuple.

Ops​

  • Added params for lotOperationIdList and lotOperationList to system.kanoa.lot.getLotEvents()
