Enter Weighting Values

Explanation

This activity is used to enter Weighting values for predefined Weight Criteria.

A weight criteria can be set up for the priority of a Work Task, the Criticality of the Object that is connected to a Work Task and for the Contract Type of the Contract associated with a Work Task. For each weight criteria it is possible to define the weighting values that will be used as an input for activity base value calculations. Any criteria value for which a weighting value is not set, will have a default weighting of 1 in the calculation (i.e., it will affect change the base value). Weighting values are summed, for example, if a Work Task has 3 weightings relevant to it, each with a value of 2, the total weighting will be 8 (2 x 2 x 2).

Prerequisites

• The company must have been set up.
• Weight criteria must have been defined.
• If the CRITICALITY weight criteria is to be used, object criticalities must have been defined.
• If the PRIORITY_ID weight criteria is to be used, priorities must have been defined.
• If the CONTRACT_TYPE weight criteria is to be used, service contract types must have been defined.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, weighting values are entered for the weight criteria and will be input to activity base value calculations.
