This board actually shows you the amount of inventory you have in production. It is a great tool to minimize the risk of overproduction and can be used to steer your production facility. Besides this it helps you to have control of your inventories itself of course . Based on the design of Kanban Cards it is possible to identify directly where the container belongs to and in what interval you have to check on it.
