Introduction

This tutorial guides you in how to create Work Instructions in Dokit and to avoid the pitfalls.

If the Work Instruction is already created, follow the process Dokit - Editing Work Instructions

Warnings

...Do not publish personal or secure information

...Do not publish passwords

...Do not publish anything inflammatory, offensive or illegal

Étape 1 - Navigate to the website

stuga.dokit.app

This site is a french production, so there will be an occasional French word pop up

Étape 2 - Log In to Dokit as an Editor

To create a new Dokit, you need to login as a editor

The Username is Gareth Green

Password is available from the IT department

Étape 3 - Check if the Dokit is already created

...This step sounds simple but is really important. Duplicating a process that is already written will be a waste of time and create confusion

Work instructions are all stored under their subassemblies using the notation

R00nnnnn [Title of Subassembly]

Where R00nnnnn is the subassembly number.

You can search for the number or the title using the search bar

If the Dokit already exists, jump straight to Dokit - Editing Work Instructions

Étape 4 - Create a page

Click on the create a Page button

Étape 5 - Create a Tutorial and Name it

Click on the tutorial button
Name the Work instruction, following the naming convention, paticularly the R00nnnnn code.
Double check the name and spelling - it is a bit of a pain to change the name of a Dokit after it has been created
Click Create

...The other types of Dokit (Page, Item, Manual) are used for other types of page. Work instructions are most suited to the 'Tutorial' step by step type

If you do need to change the name, finish creating the dokit then change it using this process

Dokit - Renaming a Page

Étape 6 - Fill in the description

(1) The description should be standard:

(Obviously replace the R00nnnnn with the Assembly R number!)

Work Instruction for R00nnnnn [Title of Assembly]

...You can copy and paste the title (2) from the dokit itself

Étape 7 - Set the Category

Work Instructions should be assigned to the 'Production' category

Étape 8 - Set the difficulty

Hover over the (i) to see the skill assignment

Most Work instructions will be the top 3

Very easy: Accessible to everyone. An 8 year old child can follow the tutorial without difficulty

Easy: Accessible to all. An adult can follow the tutorial without difficulty

Middle: Only an informed adult can follow the tutorial. Requires no special skills

Difficult: Requires mastery of technical skills. An amateur may, however, follow the tutorial

Very difficult: Usually reserved for professionals. Requires the mastery of complex technical skills

Étape 9 - Set the Duration

Provide an estimate for how long this should take.

If unsure, set at 1 day and it can be edited later

Étape 10 - Add the Main Picture - Step 1

Pictures are very important to Dokit, and a main picture gives the whole tutorial an identity. Each picture needs to be uploaded to dokit first. This process (in my opinion) takes far too many mouse clicks !!!

Click on the + icon on the main picture box

...If you are not in a position to upload a photo - don't worry, you can do this another time when editing
