Daily Report in many enterprises are not subject to workers welcome, reason is the often misunderstood as a personal performance of employees, performance evaluation tools. Moreover, many Management Officials and business leaders often underestimate the statements of statistics in business management role. But we should be aware that every work done by employees is reflected not only its own performance, but also reflects the business, sector overall job performance. Companies succeed in the competitive market based, the cost must be clearly based on a comprehensive in-house report statistical system, and make full use of statistical reports to provide data to improve enterprise management.

Have a printing company, acquired a new KBA 5-color offset press coating. The device is very advanced in technology, but the operation is not satisfactory, the actual utilization rate of only 76%. This phenomenon, offset by the workshop director to explain the preparation before the class start time and stop work order before too long due, and that for such a 72cm × 104cm off the format of the device, two hours of preparation time per day and the normal finishing time. However, subsequent data analysis showed that the reasons are not in this. The survey found that plant operators do not fill out a report in Japan, such as parking, and other workers, such as plates, such as paper and other items of the lack of a single printed piece construction, resulting in data management and decision-making failure.

In-depth analysis of debugging time to prepare a new generation of presses is almost reduced by half, and the printing speed significantly improved, so the demand for each device on the plate almost a 30% increase. The plant in make-up, not enough staff proofing process is difficult to meet the demand for high-speed presses. Meanwhile, staff busy in error proofing, but also produce many waste Edition. But business has taken a variety of remedial measures, such as: invited German experts to burn out staff training, uniform quality standards for proofing process; transferred from outside the plant skilled operators; the part of the make-up the task of outward processing, to add part of producing and processing capability. However, delivery outside the processing time is often not guaranteed, for each version of such delay will create versions of downtime. In addition, production organization and management problems they can not fill out the correct daily report back to the managers to correct and timely.

Business on the application of statistical reports Daily Report Statistics
enterprises are mainly for the establishment of production database services and production database is unified management, organization, maintenance and data required to provide production management subsystem. It is the production management system, data center, focused on establishing and maintaining production and management of basic data necessary resources for production and business departments to share.

On the regulation of production concentrated in three levels: first level: planning and monitoring; second level: adjustment; third level: implementation.

All three layers are built on the work of enterprise data collection and analysis, so have the corresponding program data, adjustment data and results data, the three concepts. When management took place in the first level, to the second year of the company to plan production schedules, it must operate on the business results of the previous year data (outcome data) collection, collation. Of course, the workshop should also include the occurrence of the data processing of raw material consumption and the external part.

Fill out the data to be specific to each day, each frequency. For example:
1, for plant production equipment, appropriate statements should be reflected in this piece of equipment on the processing of orders and the process name, the start and end time, duration, time, type (debug, production, interruption, downtime and the overhead time ), process requirements (factors such as the printed volume, paper grade, degree of difficulty plate, etc.), quantity (number of genuine, the number of seconds) and so on.

2, for every order, the corresponding statements should reflect the processing of this single technological process and equipment, process time points (start, end), time, type and length, number of (genuine number, the number of defects), eliminate Consumables Material type and quantity of outside processing (type, size, quantity) and so on.

3, for each operator, the corresponding statements of work should reflect the time (working hours), the time type (normal classes, overtime, shift), and length.

In November 2003 held in Shanghai All in Print China, the CDF, developed by the German printing, and enterprise management software has been able to Printing Equipment Networking. Led Operation equipment, just pick up the Daily Report readers will read the corresponding work, without the operator then manually fill out, to avoid errors and intentional concealment of the phenomenon of writing. Large amounts of information by computer processing, management of computer information only and the central network control center, you can keep abreast of the production conditions, detailed to the press what products are being printed, how many have been printed, saved a lot of time.

If we look at available data on a regular basis in accordance with the number of days, flights, jobs, equipment, task types and operators to aggregate, the costs of specific assessment, periodic summary, managers can truly understand the actual production of each device capacity, the actual profitability of each order. The profit was important to order the actual concept, managers concerned with the profitability of each order in order to adjust or change the quotation process and reduce costs. The role is to collect reports on the production of the actual occurrence, and the cost of the offer conditions are expected to compare, analyze the causes of deviations, to find ways to improve its staff is the basis of the wage distribution.

The purchase of equipment, the key is to fully manage, play to their maximum effectiveness. Some enterprises have introduced millions of lines but because of the lack of detailed and thorough market research led to lack of equipment in place business; addition, some enterprises are on the production process Design And implementation with arbitrary, not in place for staff training. These are managers should try to avoid.

Any one Sheet-fed offset press , Even the most advanced, if it processed products are often short-living, the average preparation time will be commissioning up to 30% or more, plus official printing process may occur
