Create Serial Object Connection

Explanation

It is possible to create a Serial Object Connection to a Tool/Equipment. This activity uses as a way to register Tool Equipment sub assemblies and carry out maintenance on them. When a connection is made both Tool/Equipment and Serial object should have the same Part no and Serial no. The connection can only be made from the Connect Serial Object command in Tool/Equipment page

Tool/Equipment and Serial Object connection is made considering diffferent scenarios with respect to the Part No and Serial No availability.

Part No in Tool/Equipment	Serial No in Tool/Equipment	Serial Object Connection
No	No	Existing Serial Objects can be connected to the Tool/Equipment
Yes	No	Existing Serial Objects with the same Part No can be connected
Yes	Yes	New Serial Object is created with the same Part No & Serial No)

Note - When connecting an existing Serial Object it should not be a child object or a parent object of a Tool/Equipment connected Serial Object

Prerequisites

• Tool/Equipment shouldnt have any open work orders before the Serial Object connection
• Tool Equipment should not have any existing Serial Object connections.

System Effects

• Once the connection is made, work order cost and revenue for the Tool/Equipment is accumilated to the connected Serial Object
• Part No & Serial No values are updated from the connected Serial Object, if those were empty before the connection.
• Object ID and Object Site fields are updated in the Tool/Equipment
• Serial Object history is updated
