No paperwork, no delays, no excuses – minimize human error
Why do it now when it can wait until tomorrow? Unfortunately, many employees still follow this motto, leaving simple tasks like filling out a form or checking a machine for later. What was originally a matter of seconds often turns into hours and you lose money in the process. The MES SoftLi add-on eliminates these delays
The Forms add-on makes the best MES on the market even better
It brings the functionality of forms and checklists directly to operator terminals. You’ll find it useful for both production and non-production processes, such as:
Quality
Maintenance
Documentation
Training
Health and Safety
Even procrastination masters can’t outsmart MES SoftLi
Stop chasing people – the system reaches them the moment they log into MES. No more excuses, no more “I forgot,” and definitely no more “I don’t know where I left it.”
Eliminate delays and staff negligence
In the SoftLi Admin section, you can design your own form exactly as you need it – visually and functionally. Fields can be text- or number-based, or take the form of checkboxes, dropdown menus, rating options, or comment sections.
You can set up so-called triggers to control when a form is displayed to the logged-in operator.
Each completed form is saved in the database, evaluated, and compared with forms submitted by other operators.
To ensure full production transparency, results can be filtered, for example by user roles, and every record includes additional data such as timestamps, location, and user ID.
Practical examples: how you can use the Forms module in your production
1 Quality control
In food production, products need to be weighed and inspected every two hours.
You could depend on staff memory or reminders to ensure checks are done and results properly recorded.
Or you can implement electronic forms and let SoftLi’s MES handle the timing. You define the conditions. The results are recorded automatically – correctly, securely and instantly accessible in reports with a single click.
2 Control measurements
When releasing production, control measurements are required. Now, it’s up to you whether you give employees a stack of papers with various instructions or define the conditions directly in forms.
In such cases, MES SoftLi will automatically notify the relevant worker, and the next measurement will be initiated based on your chosen configuration – whether it's time interval, job order, product type or any combination you need.
3 Informing employees
When there’s a change in documentation, such as the pressure on the machine needing to be slightly lower than before, it’s essential to inform employees. With forms, you can notify them in just seconds and easily track who was informed and when.
Would you like to go paperless?
Ask for a DEMO – seeing is believing. Test MES SoftLi on your own production line and see for yourself why it’s the best on the market, especially with its powerful add-ons. Then decide.
