Define Serial Object For Design Object
Explanation
This activity is used to create a serial object and connect it to an equipment object in IFS/Equipment. This can
be performed on Design Object or Design Objects page. A part
number is added to the design object and a serial number is assigned to that part number. When the design
object's design status is changed, a serial object is created and connected to the equipment object.
Prerequisites
- IFS/Service and Maintenance and IFS/Part Catalog must be installed.
- Serials should be allowed for the Object Level of the design object class, for which the serial object is
being created, in Equipment Basic Data.
System Effects
- A value for the part number and serial number is saved on the design object. By changing the design
object's design status, a serial part is created in the serial part catalog, a serial object and an equipment
object are created in IFS/Equipment. The serial object is connected to the parent equipment object.
- History events are logged on the design object for the creation of the serial object, and for the serial
object connection to the equipment object.
