To manage safety checklists for workshop machinery, define a short pre-use checklist for each machine — guards, emergency stops, cables, protective equipment — have operators complete it before starting and stop the machine when a critical item fails until it is fixed. In Jestor, checklists are linked to machines and operators,
You can track operator shifts and output per shift by recording who worked on each shift and machine, registering the quantities produced and scrapped and comparing output, downtime and quality across shifts. In Jestor, shift records are linked to operators, machines and orders, giving managers a fair view of performance.
A smooth way to manage packing and shipping tasks after production is to create packing tasks automatically when orders pass quality control, use a checklist for packing and labeling, book the carrier and track the shipment until delivery. In Jestor, finished orders flow into packing and shipping, so nothing waits
To keep track of tools, molds, and fixtures, register each item with an identifier, storage location, compatible machines and products, record when it is used or moved and track usage counts and maintenance. In Jestor, tools, molds and fixtures are linked to machines and production orders, so setup teams find
You can record quality defects and rework requests by registering every defect with product, order, stage, type and photo, creating a rework task with an owner when the item can be fixed and analyzing defects by cause to prevent them. In Jestor, defects and rework are linked to production orders,
A good way to manage supplier deliveries of raw materials is to record every purchase order with the confirmed delivery date, follow open orders on a board, check quantities and quality when the material arrives and flag late or incomplete deliveries. In Jestor, purchase orders, deliveries and receiving checks are
To calculate and track the real cost per product, record the materials consumed, labor hours and machine time for each production order, apply a clear rule for overhead and compare the result with the price and the estimated cost. In Jestor, these operational costs are linked to orders and products,
You can handle custom orders with approval steps before production by sending every custom order through a technical review, a commercial check and customer approval of drawings and specifications, releasing it to production only when all approvals are recorded. In Jestor, approval steps are part of the order flow, and
A clear way to track work in progress across production stages is to show every open order on a Kanban with one column per stage, update the stage as work moves on the shop floor and measure how long orders stay in each stage. In Jestor, SLA tracking records time
To plan preventive maintenance for workshop machines, define a maintenance plan for each machine with tasks and frequency, schedule the services in the production calendar, run each service with a checklist and record parts used and findings. In Jestor, machines, plans and services are connected, building a complete maintenance history.
You can record machine downtime and its causes by asking operators to register every stop with start time, end time and cause category from a tablet near the machine, and by analyzing total downtime by machine and cause each week. In Jestor, downtime records are linked to machines and production
A practical way to manage bills of materials for custom products is to build each bill from standard components and materials, calculate quantities with formulas based on the product's dimensions or options, save versions and link the approved bill to the production order. In Jestor, bills of materials,
