Downtimes

The following types of downtimes exist:

  • One-off downtimes/4M downtimes (planned/unplanned)

  • Downtime series/regular 4M downtimes (planned only)

    As soon as the current time + offset (configurable in Shopfloor Management Administration ) reaches the start of a downtime belonging to a downtime series, it is automatically transformed into a regular, individual downtime. It is no longer part of the (downtime) series, i.e. changes to the series no longer affect it. It can be edited in the calendar overview.
