Portal > Reports
PINpoint provides a variety of reports to document the operations and performance of production lines and their particular stations, and the ability to choose which details to display, and how the information is displayed.
PINpoint reports are available in five main categories:
•Product Reports, which focus on a particular product, represented by a serial number, as it progresses through production (see Heading2)
•Fastening Reports, which focus on various aspects of Fastening operations (see Heading2)
•Andon Reports, which focus on Andon Events and their impact on production (see Heading2)
•Analyze Reports, which provide tools to finely or broadly examine the relationship of Events, Lines, Products, and time periods (see Heading2)
•Operator Report, which provides contact information, IDs, most recent login, and roles, qualifications, and certifications for the selected Operator (see Heading2).
Portal > Reports > Product Reports
Product Reports are designed to provide information, about a specific product serial number, in PDF format. These reports can be downloaded in either PDF or Excel format, and can be directly printed without the requirement of being downloaded. Product Reports are available in the following types:
•Product Report (see Heading3)
•End of Line Report (see Heading3)
Production Reports Definitions
The following definitions summarize concepts you will encounter in this section.
Table 122: Production Reports definitions

Legend |
The Product Report Legend is a list of icon explanations nested under the Legend icon. |
A Product Report provides a view of the status and history of a specific item (or group of items) identified by a serial number, and gives the user various options with regard to what information about the item should be included in the report and the format in which that information should be presented.
NoteSerial number references are available in the Portal > Tracking > Work Orders tab. For more information, see Heading3.
To create a Product Report, follow these steps.
