An operator may declare a quantity greater than the production order quantity during the first operation of a production order. This declared quantity is then valid for all subsequent operations of the production order. Beyond the fact that this poses an easy risk of error for operators (poka-yoke), it also completely distorts the data analysis. Show More

It would be great if we could add cycle time quantity breaks to operations.  Currently, there can only be one active cycle time per operation.  For example: Quantity: 1           Cycle Time/unit: 10 min   Quantity: 2-9       Cycle Time/unit: 8 min Quantity: 10+      Cycle Time/unit: 7 min This would create more accurate production time estimates, which benefits both work scheduling and post production analytics.

Displaying a PDF file while running a checklist or while performing an operation through the product-related file Show More

At the moment, we can only reference an object modeled in fusion 360 (components or an assembly) inside the work instructions. 2D drawings can't be referenced, which is a problem because we want workers to have access to the updated production drawing. Show More

As we have a big amount of different document on different internal link – it would be great to be allowed to attach link on files tab (on products, operations, machines, …). Then the operator could access it through the display files functionality on tablet. Show More

We often quote similar/identical orders so it would be nice to just Duplicate an older quote and update the info.   Show More

If an operation is set first as recovery then this operation doesn’t need to be set also as optional. So this optional setting on recovery operation should not be possible.     Show More

Allow PDF files to be attached to a Work Instruction and work instruction steps   This will allow assembly drawings to be attached viewed by the operator while they are building the items. Show More

Having the option to print a label when a operator is checkin-in a operation, instead of only having the option to print a label in the check-out.     Show More

To be able to create hyperlink buttons in work instructions. Currently you can only link to youtube. Show More

It would be great if we could customize our menus under management. For example, quoting a job is usually the very first step in our process, followed by sales order and then job so it would make the most sense for us to have those in that order under management. Show More

Hi, when creating a production order, my product will have operations assigned to it. Step 1, Step2, Step 3 for example. In the operations tab it will have the start and end date, workers and machines. In this section you should also have 'materials and quantity' so there is no need to then go into the 'Materials / Sub products option' and manually set up each task, this tab could be deleted all together. This is double handling. We've already selected these operations when setting up the product in the Products menu, but then we're required to go into the 'Materials / Sub-products' section to re-enter the same operations and assign materials (also this section you can select and deselect the steps). It would save a significant amount of time if there were a simple dropdown menu for selecting materials and quantities directly within the 'Operations' tab as we already know what operations and steps are required in this menu.  Please contact me if I haven't made it clear and I can run over it. I hope this suggestion is shared by others! Thanks Show More

Currently it's not possible to model operations that take the same time regardless of the quantity produced. For example: in a setup operation a worker could take 15 minutes preparing a machine or workstation, regardless of the quantity to produce. This is important for customers that want to track how much time they are spending in this kind of operations, calculate productivity and have a better estimation of how long a production order will take. Show More

Fields in the Product API are available to retrieve the validity period of an operation, but unfortunately they cannot be added new times via API. Indeed, the operations.task-durations.validSince field is populated by default with the operation's creation date. And the operations.task-durations.validUntil field is populated by default with the value "Always". We need to define that an operation has now a different cycle time, and we cannot make that change on the API unless we change the existing cycle time, which will impact historical data. Show More

Currently we don't have a option to disable the downtime reason codes. There is a way to avoid to appear in the worker menu interface but in the backoffice interface we have the complete list. We want to add the "disable" feature that we have in other modules of Fusion Operations so we can filter the downtime reason codes with that parameter. Show More

We can see the 'cycle time/work time' while we are in the Worker screen, but once you insert production (say, for example, just to fill in some data of the components, not because the operation is done) you cannot see the cycle time/work time unless you get out of the production screen. In that case, you lose the data.   It would be really helpful being able to see the time whether you are in the worker screen or you inserted production. Another possibility is not losing the data, having the option of not just Cancel insert production but also EXIT (without losing data previously registered). Show More

During our training, I noticed that there are two main methods for laying out production operations: You can take a single product through several operations.  Mid-sequence, there are no actual products created.  The same product is just being modified and tracked as WIP inventory. You can create individual products for specific steps, or every single step, during the production process.  This allows you to see creation of these products, which can be stored and tracked in actual inventory. A scenario could occur mid-process where a machine breaks or an event occurs that disrupts production, leaving parts in WIP.  It could be useful to have an option to convert those WIP items into physical inventory temporarily, in the event that they need to be stored in a warehouse location until maintenance or repair has been performed, or until the disruption has ended. The temporary physical inventory status could then be cleared and parts could be inserted back into the process to resume operations.   I'm not sure how often this would be used, but it seems like it could be very useful when the scenario does occur.

Hey Fusion team, I’ve got an idea that could help with communication between the shop and the back office. Right now, after an operation is marked complete in Fusion, there’s no automatic notification to the back office. We can use variables or notes to flag things, but that’s not always clean or consistent. For example, we have an operation called “Final Welding.” Once that’s done, it would be great if a notification or alert could go to the back office team automatically. Even something like a simple status trigger that sends a message or email would help a lot. I know it’s kind of a niche request, but I can see this being useful for others too—especially for teams that rely on that handoff between production and admin. Thanks for considering it.

On the production orders we have an excel that is saved in, on the tablet view this is unable to be opened. it would be idea if the production staff could open up the excel and edit this and save it back. Having it work something like google docs where this is saved automatically and can be retrieved in the back office Show More
