Use this when: You're setting up core plant-level settings or helping a new site go live.

The Configuration section lets you manage how users, machines, shifts, and tags behave in Guidewheel. You’ll return here often during onboarding and as operations change.

You can get to the Configurations section by going to Settings > Configurations

Key Sections:

  • Users & Staff – Create access and assign production roles

  • Devices – Configure machines, performance targets, and metrics

  • Shifts – Define working hours for each site

  • Tags – Set downtime categories for tracking loss

  • Planned Downtime – Internal-only, defines known breaks

  • Device Lists & Groups – Organize machines for easier analysis
