Dashboard number cards
Ongoing Job Cards
Count of Job Cards in progress on the shop floor.
In detail
A Job Card is one operation of a Work Order assigned to a workstation, with start and end times logged by the operator. This card counts Job Cards whose status is Work In Progress, so it shows how many operations are running on the shop floor right now. The demo books show 0. Job cards post nothing to the ledger; their logged time feeds the operating cost on the finished Work Order. Cards left in progress overnight usually mean the operator forgot to stop the timer.
Formula
Ongoing Job Cards = Count of Job Card where status = Work In Progress
