Visual production flow
Every node represents a production phase with current item count — the whole process is visible at a glance.
Availability vs threshold
The card at the top shows current availability against a defined threshold — a clear signal when the upstream phase needs to restart.
Warehouse cards
Warehouse cards with current tonnage per location — on the same screen as the flow diagram.
