Update Structure Component from Actuals
Explanation
Use this activity to update the Usage Factor values of the
configuration structure components using the calculated actual values of the
usage factors on the Structure Components Actuals Snapshot
page.
When updating, two options are available for selecting the revision to
update:
- Calculated Revision: The revision the
calculation was performed for.
- Latest Revision: The latest routing
revision, this can be a different revision than the calculated one that
is valid today or one planned to be used in the future.
This update function provides the facility to update the component usage
factors in three different ways.
- Set New Values from Actuals: Update usage factor value
in the configuration structure component lines to the calculated
actual values.
- Set New Fixed Value: Set a new fixed value for the
usage factors in the configuration structure component lines.
- Update with Percentage: Add a percentage increment
to the current usage factor in the configuration structure component lines.
Note:
- If the Structure/Routing Update setting on the
Site/Manufacturing page is set as Restricted, the update function will not perform
for the structure revision alternates that are in Buildable status.
Also, the Obsoleted structure revision alternates will not be updated.
If the combination of Parent Part and Alternate No does
not exist for the selected revision to be updated, then the update will
not be performed.
- For non-configurable parts, the structure usage factor, actual usage
factor, and usage factor difference are not displayed or calculated in
the snapshot, as the usage factor does not apply to these parts.
Therefore, it is not possible to update the usage factor for these.
Prerequisites
- At least one record should exist on the Structure Component Actuals
Snapshot page, including the calculated usage factor actual value
for structure components for a configurable part.
System Effects
As a result of this activity, component usage factor in the structure revision
alternates will be updated as per the selected options.
