WIP Job Allocation Graph

You use this program to view a graphical representation of all operations allocated to a job.

The graph is scaled horizontally according to the total number of days required to complete all operations (i.e. queue time, elapsed time, start time, complete time and move time) and vertically according to the operations performed in the different work centers.

This program can be accessed by selecting the Graph option from the toolbar of the WIP Query program or the Job Graph option from the Load Levelling program.
