Permanent Weight Discrepancy Determination

The deviation of the expected weight of the packaging unit against the actual weight can be checked during the packaging process.

The other functionalities of the weight validation (increase in weight and total weight) remain unaffected.

Example procedure:

• The user scans three parts for packing.
• The third part is removed without permission.
• The permanent weight discrepancy determination raises an alarm.

The permanent weight discrepancy determination is performed in the background.

If an unauthorized weight discrepancy is detected, a warning is displayed and the application is blocked:

A user with administration rights can release the block it and acknowledge the deviation.

If the user logged in has no corresponding rights, a login window appears:

As soon as a user with appropriate rights is logged in, the weight discrepancy dialog with information about the deviation appears:

The user must specify a reason for the discrepancy.

As soon as the weight is correct, packing can continue (confirm).

The PackageWeight must be configured in order to use the background monitoring for the weight discrepancy (exceptions may apply for workflows).
Otherwise, each weight change is viewed as a prohibited change.
See Background monitoring for weight discrepancies in the technical documentation.
