Overview
The FactoryLogix-XTD-LBR-01 Labor Time Transfer Integration Service exports FactoryLogix WIP Start, WIP Pause, and WIP Finish events to a third-party system in an automated manner, in CSV format. The service periodically generates a CSV file containing WIP Start, WIP Pause, and WIP Finish events recorded in FactoryLogix since a specified date and time.
Note
This integration service depends on a second supporting integration service that imports and associates Employee IDs to FactoryLogix operator accounts. Both services must be deployed for the labor time export to function correctly.
