Skip

Shift & Break Logic Statement

Syntax samples

SKIP

Description

In pre-off-shift or pre-break logic, a SKIP statement causes any off-shift or break main logic to be skipped as well as the off-shift or break time defined in the shift file so that the affected location or resource stays on line.

In off-shift or break logic, a SKIP statement causes the off-shift or break time defined in the shift file to be ignored. This is useful if you want to define your own off-shift or break time as part of the logic rather than use the time defined in the shift file.

Valid In

This function can only be referenced in off-shift and break logic (either the pre-start or main logic).

Example

Suppose a Worker is scheduled to go on break at 10:15 for fifteen minutes. However, if there are more than two parts in queue, the Worker will skip his or her break to stay on schedule. The following logic is entered in the pre-break logic for the resource, Worker.

IF Contents(Worker_Que) > 2 THEN SKIP
