Redwood: Manage and Execute Production Using a New Home Experience
Production staff need a simple user experience to efficiently prepare for and manage manufacturing execution as part of their daily routine. Now you can use the new Work Execution landing page for an overview of work order management and execution activities and highlighted work that needs attention, so you can take actions on them using an end-to-end Redwood user experience.
- Tasks with manufacturing plant context - View the work execution landing page for the default organization associated with the user. Take actions in the context of this organization. Select another organization to access its work orders and actions as enabled by the user's organization access. You can also apply a work area and work center context to the landing page using the View by action.
- Key performance indicators on work order performance - View a current summary of production activities.
- Direct search for a work order - Search for a specific work order based on keywords to quickly navigate to the work order page for viewing or editing.
- Quick navigation to actions related to work order management, execution, supervision, and import - Navigate to commonly used actions and all actions available in the work execution work area. Pin additional actions to move them to the top of the list of all actions.

Creating KPI and Visualization to Add to Landing Page
You can define OTBI-based KPI and visualization using the Visualization Configurations tool. You must first create an analysis in OTBI. To create a KPI for the OTBI analysis, specify metric card as the visualization type. To create a visualization, specify bar chart, pie chart, tabular chart, and so on as the visualization type.
The Visualization Configurations tool can be accessed using the following URL:
https://<servername>/fscmUI/redwood/cx-analytics/application/container/dvconfig

Tips And Considerations
- For an improved end-to-end user experience, you can also enable the related Redwood pages for actions accessed through the Work Execution landing page:
- Report Material Transactions
- Report Resource Transactions
- Quality Inspections and Create Quality Inspection
- The landing page is enabled with Guided Journey which can be set up to guide the users to tasks which include AI Agent support.
- You can add KPI and visualization based on OTBI analysis from the available subject areas.
- You can't remove seeded KPIs in Edit Page Layout. However, you can configure them (hide, show, reorder) in Visual Builder Studio in Advanced mode.
