Oracle Process Manufacturing provides support for touch screen devices. A touch screen is an input device that allows users to operate a PC by touching the display screen. Touch input is suitable for a wide variety of computing applications. Often, shop floor operators need a user interface that requires minimal training and can be used in an environment where keyboards and pointing devices are not available. The touch screen interface provides keypads for alphanumeric data entry so a keyboard may not be necessary for the touch screen device.
You can use the touchscreen interface as a front end to the Operator Workbench to perform batch transactions and execute process instructions, or to perform dispensing and reverse dispensing operations. The touch screen application supports use of Dispense Areas and Dispensing Booths. Create, modify, or delete touch screen preferences for a Responsibility, Site, or User.
You create Touchscreen Preferences from the Touchscreen Preferences window. You can also update, delete, or duplicate existing Touchscreen Preferences from the Touchscreen Preferences window.
