Held Tags

Tags that are placed on hold in the system can be handled either in the ShopEdge system on your desktop, or on the Handheld/Forklift Application. When a Tag is placed on hold at a Workcenter, in quality control, or throughout the plant, you can review the Tag and take further action by using the Held Tags screen.

To view the Held Tags screen, navigate to the images/heldtags/qatab-1.jpg button and click on the images/heldtags/heldtagsicon-2.jpg icon. The Held Tags screen will be displayed.

All Tags that are placed on hold can be viewed using the drop-down menu located beside the field, Serial #.
