Apply Control Plan Template to Control Plan
Explanation
Each Control Plan Manufacturing,
Control Plan Purchasing or Control Plan Inventory consists of two levels: a
header and one or more lines. This activity is used to create new control plan
lines using a Control Plan Template. The template can be used only to
copy from, or with a reference that ensures the control plan contains
exactly the same lines as the template that it refers to.
Prerequisites
- A control plan template in state
Active with the correct type (Manufacturing, Purchasing or Inventory) must
exist.
- A control plan header in state
Created must exist.
- For control plan -
manufacturing, a routing alternate must exist for the part
- For a manufactured part, the
operation numbers and work centers referred on the template lines must
also exist on the routing alternate.
Note:
If a manufactured part is configurable, operation numbers and work centers
referred on the template lines may not exist on the routing alternate, but
you should check that they refer to combinations of operation number and work
center number that may be the result of the configuration rules.
System Effects
As a result of this activity:
- Control plan lines are copied
from the template to the control plan.
- If you selected the reference
option, a reference to the template and its revision will be saved on the
control plan header.
- If any problems occurred, a
control plan log will be created containing the error and warning messages.
