Through this low-effort and other use of stateof the art technology low engineering costs are ensured. Your new version is now a sophisticated Plant Management system that offers increased usability and extended data transparency. The system is now ready for mobile applications and already contains various additional functional extensions. Just one example is the KPI-Dashboard which can be configured individually by each user. KPI-Dashboard: On the home screen it immediately indicates what is on track and where additional attention is needed Answers for energy. Functional extensions of SPPA-M3000 Plant Management Web Upgrade: Inventory Management: With the upgrade, many store rooms even at different locations can be administrated within a single system. The upgraded plant management version now accommodates multiple independent store room units. In this scenario, each store room can be assigned its own price levels, reorder quantities, primary vendors etc. This new feature improves comprehensive inventory management since it ensures the accuracy of available quantities, it optimizes inventory levels through ABC-analysis and it allows for precisely tuned spare parts delivery und logistics. Additionally, spare parts substitutes can be identified to reduce duplicate quantities on hand. All those properties result in a reduction of storage costs and in a significant reduction of expenditures. Multiple Status Change: The upgraded SPPA-M3000 Plant Management offers the possibility to change numerous records at just one click. With the capability to manipulate entire data sets, the user no longer has to adjust one record after the other. This new feature enhances usability and work efficiency since equivalent data elements belonging to many data sets can be modified in one single step. Multiple status change: Records that were successfully affected by the change are highlighted in green. The records that cannot be changed are indicted in red. Inventory management: Multiple store rooms with multiple locations allow for the management of more than one inventory locations. Dash-Boarding: A KPI-Dashboard was added so that any screen can be configured to display indicators in near real-time. The indicators can be quickly created with the SQL-builder (a tool to create Structured Query Language) by drag and drop query building. Event though query creation is simple, the query concept allows for a complex query structures. With the chart options, a wide variety of diagram types can be selected to present the results of the automatically executed queries in a graphical form. SQL-query building for Dash-Boarding: Simple drag-and-drop configuration even for highly complex queries.
