Task

Overview

When a new job is created, the WCS system evaluates multiple factors such as priority, dependency chains, and resource availability to determine which jobs should be executed first. From there, the system generates tasks based on the job’s type, origin, destination, and applicable system strategy.

Each task is further broken down into multiple actions (steps) to support complex workflows. For example, a single transport task may include actions such as navigating to the source location, loading a container, and moving to the destination.

Search & Filtering

The system provides a robust search interface to locate tasks efficiently under Task Management > Task.

Supported search criteria include:

Task ID, Task Type, Destination, Task Status, Equipment, Container, Business ID, Business Type, Created Time, and Updated Time.

Task List View

The task list displays detailed task records. Each row includes basic task information (e.g., Task ID, Type, Status) and the detailed exception reason, which helps users quickly learn about the task progress.

Task Detail View

By clicking the Task ID, users are directed to the Task Detail Page, which includes:

• Associated Job ID

• Bound Order ID

• List of Actions under the task, including each action type, status and sequence.

• Linked Commands are generated and sent to equipment for execution.

This view provides full traceability from job - task - action - command, making troubleshooting and task analysis more transparent.
