With the material list export, you can export your material overview as an Excel file – for an entire shopfloor, a work area, or a single variant. This gives you quick access to your material data for evaluations, alignment meetings, or further processing outside of Halocline.
All load carriers with an assigned material are included – load carriers without a material assignment do not appear in the export. So assign materials to all your load carriers before exporting to make sure the material list is complete.
The position in the layout is derived from the groups a container belongs to. Nested groups are taken into account as well.
The material number is derived from the material's name: the name is split into ID and description at the first underscore. For example, if a material is named "9823749879889234_Brake Disc" in Halocline, "9823749879889234" is recognized as the material number and "Brake Disc" as the description.
Use the variant comparison to spot material differences between two planning states at a glance – for example, before and after a replanning.
