How are factory targets worked out?

A factory worker's target is the hours they worked that day multiplied by their target per hour. The hours come from the card machine: from the first punch to the last, less the break. To start, the target per hour is 3 for cutting, 3 for sewing and 4 for QC.

Where to find it

• The worker sees it on Admin › My workspace › Submit work (today and this month) and on their own dashboard.
• The office sees everyone in the Targets table on Admin › ERP › Production Department › Factory work. Click a name for that person's day-by-day page.

How it works

1. Hours worked. From the day's first punch to the last punch on the card machine.
2. Less the break. The break (60 minutes to start) is taken off any day longer than 4 hours.
3. Times the rate. Hours × the target per hour for that person's step.
4. Rounded each day. Each day's target is rounded on its own, then the days are added up.
5. Done is the number of orders that person submitted for their own step.

Example: a Sewing Operator punches in at 9:00 and out at 18:30. That is 9 hours 30 minutes, less a 60-minute break = 8 hours 30 minutes. At 3 an hour the target is 25.5, rounded to 26. If they submitted 22 sewings, 4 are left and they are at 85%.

Good to know

• No last punch yet today? The hours count up to now.
• Forgot the last punch on an earlier day? The hours count up to the end of their duty time on the staff profile (20:00 if none is set).
• Absent, leave and day-off days have no target.
• Only their own step counts. Exceptional work is shown next to the target, not counted in it. Helpers and the office have no target.
• Colours on the % column: green at 100% or more, amber from 80%, red below 80%.
• The login must be linked to a staff profile in ERP › HR Department › Staff. Without it, the hours are not known and the target stays 0.
• Nightly report. If Telegram reports are on, the owner's report lists factory people behind today's target.
• You can change the numbers for each step, for one person, and the break.

Common problems

• "Your login is not linked to attendance — tell the office" (or no staff profile on the Targets table). Link the login to the person's staff profile.
• Target is 0 on a day the person worked. No punches came for that day. Check Attendance for that day.
