Production Scheduler Workbench HTML UI

In addition to the Oracle Forms-based Production Scheduler Workbench, you can also use the HTML-based Production Scheduler Workbench to schedule batches for individual plants. You can create batches and then use the Scheduler workbench to view details of the batches in the Gantt Chart. You can apply filters, view specific batches, and also reschedule batch dates in the Scheduler Workbench.
