Hello All,
I have a Jobs.Dbf (one row per job) with a one-to-many relationship into JobParts.Dbf

The production process is semi-automated with machines that can receive/take parts simultaneously from several sources (feeds), for example: conveyor belts, mini gantries, collection bins, etc.

Operators are spending too much time managing the manual part of the process: supplying parts to the various feeds. Each time a change of part is required the whole process has to stop. Ideally I would like to queue the jobs so that transitions in the Part Feeds are minimized.

Any ideas appreciated
Pete.
