Continuous Mode

Labor tracking can be set to the continuous mode instead of manual mode. This mode allows for continuous Labor reporting. Labor records are created for the current open activity and are closed when a new activity is chosen.

In the continuous mode:

• The Report Labor menu item is replaced by the End of Work button. This means that Labor records cannot be edited, or removed individually.
• Labor is reported when tapping an Operation or indirect Labor.
• Only one Labor can be tracked at a time.
• The status of Orders and Operations is changed automatically.
• The status of Steps is changed manually in the Step Details.
