FLEXSCHE WebViewer Help

Overview

What is FLEXSCHE WebViewer

FLEXSCHE WebViewer (hereafter, FWV) is a simple mechanism for rendering and viewing the production schedules of FLEXSCHE GP or FLEXSCHE CarryOut in a web browser. To generate the data required for rendering, you need a FLEXSCHE GP or FLEXSCHE CarryOut license with a valid (i.e. unexpired) maintenance contract at that time; however, there are no licensing restrictions on viewing, and you can use it anywhere and as many times as you like. We also provide the FWV server for data distribution free of charge.

On the other hand, the product for viewing schedules similar to FWV, FLEXSCHE Viewer provides a rich user interface and full access to production schedule information, but requires each client to obtain an individual paid license.

Preparing FWV Data

Open the settings dialog via [Tools] - [WebViewer Data] - [Settings], and configure the WebViewer data output settings.

Once the configuration is complete, export the WebViewer data with [Tools] - [WebViewer Data] - [Output All]. You can also export it using the [Output Data for WebViewer] command of the Execute Commands method.
