The lab controls the Status Messages that are returned to Vision Web, by using a field within the Job Station maintenance screen which controls when a status is returned to Vision Web.  From the main menu select “Job Tracking" and then select “Job Stations”.  For each job station that you want to send Vision Web a status on, set the “Vision Web Stats” field to select the status that you want to return to Vision Web when a job goes through this particular station, from the drop-down box.  For example, to set the VW status to "Treatment" when a job is farmed out for AR coating, the entry might look like:

...

Whenever the Job Tracker processes a Job station that has a Vision Web status associated with it, the job tracker will create a Vision Web status message within a working database that the Vision Web interface will use to send the status to the Vision Web server.  A status message will only be created if the current Vision Web status is different than the last Vision Web status sent to Vision Web.
