Track shop-floor work orders with mobile forms
Track a work order through each shop-floor step with mobile forms. Operators record the work performed, material or lot details, and the result before the job moves to the next step or office review.
Follow the work order from one shop-floor step to the next
Start the record with the customer, job, item, expected completion date, milestones, and work notes your production team already uses. An operator can open the work order or scan its QR code to see the available details and the form for the current step.
Link each form to a configured workflow step. When the operator records the work and submits the step, the job can move to the next production task or office review defined for that process.

Let operators record work where production happens
Operators can use a phone or tablet to record when a step starts and ends, who completed it, what work was done, and any delay or problem. A form can also capture the equipment used, temperature, pressure, humidity, or other conditions required by the process.
Lists, checkboxes, scanned values, images, and signatures can reduce repeated typing. The form still needs to match the shop's work instructions and the records that supervisors expect.
Record materials acceptance, lot numbers, and serial numbers
Use a materials acceptance form to record a delivery, the material received, testing or certification details, and any shortage, damage, or other deficiency. Add a photo or note when the receiving record calls for it.
During production, scan or enter material lot numbers and component serial numbers on the work-order record. QR Mobile Data keeps those entered references with the production step. Inventory quantities and movements belong in the inventory system.
Record quality control, then give the office a usable record
Use a quality control or product-testing form to record each required check, result, problem, correction, and supporting photo. A configured rule can send an email alert when an entered result matches a condition set for follow-up.
Authorized staff can review submitted forms through the web dashboard. The source supports CSV data export and custom-formatted PDF reports. The exact form fields, alerts, workflow, and report layout must be set up for the manufacturing process.
Questions from the job
Frequently asked questions
How can a manufacturing team track a work order on the shop floor?
An operator can open or scan the work order, complete the form for the current production step, record what was done, and move the job to the next configured step or office review.
What manufacturing forms can QR Mobile Data support?
Configured forms can cover material acceptance, work orders, lot and serial-number traceability, production conditions, time tracking, quality checks, testing, delivery, equipment maintenance, inspections, and safety checks.
Can operators scan material lots and component serial numbers?
Yes. Operators can scan or enter available lot numbers and component serial numbers on the production record so they stay tied to the work order and process step.
