Auteur avatarGareth Green | Dernière modification 9/12/2022 par Gareth Green en cours de rédaction

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Do not publish personal or secure information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Do not publish passwords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Do not publish anything inflammatory, offensive or illegal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 - Check if the Dokit is already created

The dokit references for work instructions are tracked and stored on the monday board

Work Instruction Dokit Tracker

Check to see if the instruction is already there, there should be a link for it in the link column which will take you straight to the page.

If it already exists, there is no need to continue this procedure, follow the process Dokit - Editing Work Instructions




Étape 2 - Navigate to the website

stuga.dokit.app

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



Étape 3 - 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 4 - Create a page

Click on the create a Page button



Étape 5 - Create a Tutorial and Name it

  1. Click on the tutorial button
  2. Name the Work instruction, following the naming convention, paticularly the R00nnnnn code.
  3. 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
  4. Click Create

Naming Convention:
R00nnnnn [ Title of Subassembly ]

...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



Étape 11 - Add the Main Picture - Upload

Click on Upload Tab on Media Gallery

Click on Select Files



Étape 12 - Add the Main Picture - Navigate to file

Navigate to the picture to upload. Most R numbers will have a thumbnail jpg saved in the general photos folder g:\photos



Étape 13 - Add the Main Picture - Upload this File

Click on 'Upload this File'



Étape 14 - Add the Main Picture - Click on Photo

Click on the Photo

Click on "Insert Into Page"



Étape 15 - Add the Main Picture - Crop and size

Crop the picture by dragging the window size handle and position the frame

Click Crop to finish



Étape 16 - Save

Don't forget to Click Save at the bottom of the page once the dokit has been created.




Étape 17 - Add to the Monday Work Instruction board

To keep organised, all the work instructions are being tracked on this board. This allows others to easily access it from a central place


  1. Search on this board to see if there is an entry already
  2. Copy and paste the title of the instruction
  3. Set the Status column to Created
  4. Copy and paste the internet address into the link column



Étape 18 - Edit the content

The Dokit entry is now saved in the system.
