Tracking Instructions
Manufacturing information on workpieces placed into a production line is generally called tracking data.
Tracking data includes many pieces of information, such as the product type, model, quantity,
manufacturing date, product grade, and manufacturing factory. Each group of information is called a
record.
Tracking Instructions can be used to easily search for the necessary records in tracking data or to store
tracking data according to the information contained in them.
The following are programming samples that use tracking instructions.
1. Finding tracking data that matches certain conditions
2. Sorting and then searching tracking data
3. Sorting tracking data that contains many records
