A system and a method for creating a graphical user interface within a manufacturing execution system (MES)

摘要

A method and a system for creating graphical user interfaces (GUI) within a manufacturing execution system (MES), comprising: a client application builder tool enabling displaying MES screens and customizing MES and/or proprietary applications, a MES database comprising data to be displayed; where the data from a production process controlled by the MES are stored into the database; specification data having a meta-data fixed structure are determined within a configuration file to enable the generation of a configuration interface (CI); a GUI configuration tool calls the specification data from the configuration file and offers the CI for the user to create the GUI; the CI is generated using the meta-data fixed structure; the GUI is generated as specified by the user over the CI; and the data from the MES database is filled into the respective data fields of the GUI.
