🔹 Overview
Before creating your first work instructions, you’ll need to set up your workspace in Setago. This step helps you map out your shopfloor, workstations, and assigned hardware for a structured and organized workflow.
🔀 Step-by-Step Guide
- Log in to Setago.
- Navigate to Management in the left menu.
- Switch to Working Areas in the tab.
- Here, you can create and organize work areas and workstations.

Step 2️⃣ Create a New Work Area
- Click “Create Working Area” to create a new section of your shopfloor.
- Name your work area (e.g., "Assembly Line 1" or "Quality Check Zone").
- (Optional) Add an external ID to match the workstation with your own ID, for example from your ERP system.
📌 Working areas allow you to set-up a digital depiction of your physical shopfloor. It makes it easier to distribute specific steps of an instruction to working areas/ work stations.

Step 3️⃣ Add Workstations to Your Work Area
- Click on your new working area
- Click “Create Working Area.”
- Name the workstation (e.g., "Station 10 – Assembly").
- Select the parent working area.
- If no parent working area is selected, the work station can be moved into different working areas by drag-and-drop afterwards.
📌 Work areas help separate different production processes.
E.g. For Step 2 of an instruction a screwdriver is needed. The screwdriver is only available in workstation 2. This helps separate instruction processes into different physical work stations.

Step 4️⃣ Assign Users to Work Areas (Optional)
- Unfold the "Assigned users" card.
- Assign team members to specific work areas or work stations based on their role.
- Users will only be able to execute instructions within their assigned working areas/ work stations.
- Users will only see work instructions relevant to their assigned workspace.
📌 This is useful for companies with separate departments, ensuring the right people see the right instructions on the right working stations.
