Work Order Management (Job Tracking)

Work Order Management helps production teams import, organise and update work orders in FourJaw, so the right jobs reach the right machines and operators.

Planners can upload CSV files, map ERP fields and machine names, and adjust schedules as priorities change.

Updates appear on operator tablets automatically, while supervisors can see what is in progress, what is coming next and where delays are developing, giving teams a clearer, more accurate view of production across the factory.
