The Wasted Duration Report gives users clear insight into how much time and money is wasted per employee, specifically how much time is lost at the beginning and end of each day.

Date Range and Section Selection

• Users can select the date range for which they want to generate the report.
• Users can choose the specific sections they want to include in the report, giving them flexibility in analyzing different areas of the factory.
• Users can choose how the Start of Day and End of Day wasted duration tiles are displayed, either as a total or as an average.

Filter Options

Pivot Mode and Additional Information

• Users can represent the table's data using the column and filtering options in the table. By clicking on the columns on the side of the table, users can customize how the data is displayed based on their preferences.
• Additional information, such as section and date, can be added to the table for a more comprehensive analysis.
• Users can also apply filters to the data using Pivot Mode, letting them focus on specific criteria or conditions.

Data Representation

• The report includes four tiles showing the total wasted durations and costs for the following categories:
  • Start of Day (SOD) Wasted Duration
  • Start of Day (SOD) Wasted Cost
  • End of Day (EOD) Wasted Duration
  • End of Day (EOD) Wasted Cost
• If the user selects a date range spanning multiple days, the system displays a graph visualizing the total SOD and EOD wasted durations for each day.

Employee List and Wasted Duration/Cost Calculation

The report provides a table listing all employees who checked in at the factory, whether they were utilized in production or not.

Start of Day Wasted Duration

• Users can choose the time format used to display durations, such as HH:MM:SS, MM:SS, or minutes.
• If check-in occurs before the shift start time, the wasted duration is calculated from the shift start time until the first log-in to a machine.
• If check-in occurs after the shift start time, the wasted duration is calculated from the check-in time until the first log-in to a machine.
• Cost is calculated using the following equation: wasted duration in seconds × the employee's rate per second.

End of Day Wasted Duration

• Users can choose the time format used to display durations, such as HH:MM:SS, MM:SS, or minutes.
• If check-out occurs before the shift end time, the wasted duration is calculated from the last production activity until the check-out time.
• If check-out occurs after the shift end time, the wasted duration is calculated from the last production activity until the shift end time.
• Cost is calculated using the following equation: wasted duration in seconds × the employee's rate per second.

Report Data

Navigation to Employee Performance Report

• Users can click on an employee's name in the report to navigate to that employee's performance report for the selected day. This feature gives access to more detailed information about a specific employee's activities and performance.

By using the Wasted Duration Report, users can gain insights into the time and cost inefficiencies associated with the start and end of each day. This information can help identify opportunities for optimization, reduce wasted resources, and improve overall productivity in the factory.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

• What's the difference between Start of Day and End of Day wasted duration?

  Start of Day wasted duration measures the time lost between check-in and the first production activity, while End of Day wasted duration measures the time lost between the last production activity and check-out or the shift end time.

• How is the cost of wasted time calculated?

  Cost is calculated by multiplying the wasted duration in seconds by the employee's rate per second, for both Start of Day and End of Day wasted durations.

• Does the report show all employees, even those who weren't involved in production?

  Yes, the report shows all employees who checked in at the factory, whether they were utilized in production or not.

• What's the benefit of Pivot Mode in this report?

  Pivot Mode lets you reorganize and filter the table's data and add extra information such as section and date, helping you run a more detailed and comprehensive analysis.

• What happens when I click on an employee's name in the report?

  The system takes you to that employee's performance report for the selected day, which provides more detailed information about their activities and performance.
