Customize the display order of your workstations and team members to better organize your shop floor tasks.

In Katana, Resources are assigned to Production Operations for your products. These Resources can be:

  • A workstation, such as a Cutting table or Assembly machine

  • An employee, like John or Maria

The Tasks tab in the Make screen groups all tasks by Resource. Reordering your Resources changes how tasks are displayed — helping teams work more efficiently and making it easier to scan daily priorities.


Why reorder resources?

Reordering Resources is useful when:

  • You want to reflect the physical layout of your shop floor.

  • You’d like to group tasks by team or priority.

  • You want better visibility for the most-used workstations.
