Overview

We’re excited to announce Release 25-46, which introduces several system improvements designed to make your daily operations smoother, faster, and more insightful.

From new analytical reports to smarter packing tools and better production control — this update is built entirely based on your feedback.

📊 1. Enhanced Efficiency Report

You can now group and analyze efficiency data the way you want!

• Group by production line or section.

• Break down the data further by styles and orders.

This improvement provides more granular visibility into your efficiency performance, helping managers make faster, data-driven decisions.

⚙️ 2. Control Automated Beats Threshold per Section/Line

You can now customize the automated beats threshold for each production line or section individually.

💡 Why is this useful?
When a new section starts, workers may need time to adapt to using the Garment IO device — this feature allows you to set a higher threshold temporarily until they are fully trained.

By default, the system will use the factory threshold (from factory settings), but now users can adjust it per line or section.

👉 To use it:
Go to Edit  Lines & Sections, and set the desired threshold for each section.

📦 3. Packing Module Updates

For factories using the Packing Module, we’ve added two important improvements:

• Flexible Assortment Naming:
  You can now add assortment prefixes and names using letters, numbers, and special characters (/, -, _), up to 10 characters long.

• Packed Pieces on PO Page:
  On the Production Order page, you can now see the total Packed Pieces, which include pieces inside boxes with any of these statuses:

  • Filled

  • Partially Closed

📘 Note: Only closed boxes are counted as packed.

⏱️ 4. New Report: Worker Time Analysis

Introducing the Worker Time Analysis Report — your new tool to understand how workers spend their time.

The report shows:

• Number of attending employees

• Number of active employees

• Total paid minutes

• Total idle minutes

• Total maintenance minutes

• Total unutilized minutes

Filters include:

• Line/Section

• Date Range

• Option to download the report

🗂️ Find it under:
Production Module → Production Reports → Worker Time Analysis

🕒 5. New Report: Order Cycle Time

This new report helps you analyze how long each order takes from start to finish.

The report displays:

• Style, Order, and Produced Quantity

• First Beat and Last Beat timestamps per line

• Breakdown of time spent per stage and duration in days by clicking on the expand button

Users can search by style and line, and the system will return all orders with status Finished or inspected.

📘 Find it under:
Production Module → Production Reports → Order Cycle Time

🧩 6. New Option: Separate Remainder When Grouping Batches

When creating Batch Groups, there’s now a new “Separate Remainder” option available when:

• Piece Tracking is enabled

• Cutting is enabled

• All four bundling rules are selected

• All batches of a specific (cutting order, color, size) are selected

🧮 How It Works:

• The system calculates grouping based on size count and typical input quantity.

• It ensures that batches from the same layer (marker) are grouped together.

Example:

If you have 33 batches of Cutting Order 1, Color White, Size M:

• Size count = 3

• Typical input = 5

Then:

• System creates 9 groups

• Each 3 groups correspond to the size count

• Within each set: first 2 groups have 5 batches, and the third group has 1 batch
  

✅ This ensures all grouped batches align with the same marker layer.

🧭 7. Small UI Improvements

A few interface tweaks to make navigation smoother:

• When copying or moving standard processes, you can now search for the style category instead of scrolling.

• The WIP (Work In Progress) report now opens directly to the section view (not factory view) for faster loading.

💡 Summary

Release 25-46 brings you:

• More powerful reports 🧾

• Better production control ⚙️

• Smarter packing tools 📦

• And a smoother daily workflow ✨
