A work center is a location whose Type is set to Workcenter. Because there is no separate work-center record, you set one up by creating or editing a location. See the Locations and work centers overview for how work centers fit the location model.

​
Designate a work center

  1. In the Production section of the sidebar, click Factory.
  2. Create a new location with Create Location, or open an existing one.
  3. Set Type to Workcenter, then save. (On a new location, click Create Location; on an existing one, the change saves automatically.)

​
Run work at a work center

Once a location is a work center, operators can execute against it:
  • From the work center’s detail page, click Go to Execution to open its run-step queue.
  • From the run workspace, use the Workcenter shortcut to open a work center’s queue.
The queue buckets the work center’s run steps into Overdue, Now, Next, and Blocked. For how operators work this queue, see Run steps at a work center.
