Chase BOM and AVL approvals before they block a build

Every morning, WebRun opens FactoryLogix, finds every BOM and AVL revision still waiting on approval, logs each one with its age and owner in a Google Sheet, and posts your engineering channel a reminder naming who needs to sign off before the linked work order can release.

In short

How do I get reminded before a BOM or AVL approval blocks a build?

WebRun checks FactoryLogix every morning for BOM and AVL revisions still waiting on approval, logs each one with its owner and days waiting in a Google Sheet, and posts your engineering channel a Slack reminder naming who needs to sign off, so a stalled approval never quietly holds up a work order release.

  • Pending BOM and AVL approvals get a same day reminder instead of sitting untouched
  • Approvers are named and at mentioned directly, not buried in a shared inbox
  • Engineering sees the full backlog ranked by days waiting every morning

Questions, answered

Will WebRun approve a BOM or AVL revision on its own?

No. WebRun only reads pending approval status in FactoryLogix and reminds the assigned approver. Every sign off still happens as a person, inside FactoryLogix, on their own authority.

How does it decide who to remind?

It reads the approver already assigned to each revision in FactoryLogix and at mentions that person directly, so the reminder always reaches the right owner, not a generic channel.

What happens once a revision is approved?

It reads the live approval status in FactoryLogix each morning, so anything approved overnight drops off the next reminder automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
