Exploring and deleting the sample data
After you register, your account is filled with a sample company. What it is there for, what the missions are — and how to start with your own company.
Right after you register, your account is not empty. Gantway has set up a small sample company, matching the industry you specified during registration.
What the sample company contains
One workstation, three stations, four employees, three articles, four customers, four orders, two quotes and two deliberately built-in scheduling conflicts. On top of that, the control room contains the sample hall "Halle 1": a floor plan based on the template for your industry, with further sample slots and stations. You can safely try everything with it: move, reschedule, change status. None of it is real.
The missions
On the dashboard (sidebar → Dashboard), as an Admin you see the exploration missions:
- "Find the planning conflict"
- "Open an order"
- "Look at an offer"
- "Look at your workshop in the control room", only if your plan includes the control room, so always during the trial
They lead you to the places where you'll later work every day. The missions are optional; you can also skip them.
Starting with your own company
Once you've seen enough, click "Set up your company". This deletes the sample data, including the slots and stations of the sample hall; the rooms of the hall remain. After that, Gantway unlocks the setup checklist, which guides you through the next steps: from the company profile to the first released order.
If you later hid the checklist by accident, the "Show checklist again" button under Settings → "Tenant Settings" brings it back, on the page with your company data.
Also known as: sample company, demo data, test data, missions, delete data, own company.
