With GlobalReader you can add different types of scrap reasons and even decide if the specific scrap reason is included in the OEE calculation or not - read more GlobalReader Tips & Tricks: #4 How to include or exclude scrap from OEE calculation. Scrap reasons can be entered by the operator during the production process using our Shopfloor feedback feature.
