Calculate Structure Component Actuals
Explanation
Use this activity to create a snapshot for structure component details and calculate the actual results for
different attributes used in a product, configuration, or recipe structure.
In the Calculate Structure Component Actuals assistant, specify the
selection criteria such as product family, part and date range for the structures and shop order to be included in
the calculation.
The assistant will calculate the actual values for structure attributes based on closed shop orders within the
defined date range. This snapshot record allows you to compare planned values with actual values for different
structure attributes. This information can be used to update the structure attributes to enhance the accuracy of
the structure.
To identify shop order material lines, both components and produced parts, to include in the calculation,
material lines are identified by comparing the structure type, structure revision, structure alternate and
structure line item number. This means that a shop order material line and a structure material line will be
considered the same if they have the same structure line item number. Even if for example, the operation to which
the material line is connected has been updated.
The following attributes are calculated for components: Scrap Factor, Usage
Factor and Alternate Component Factor. For produced parts: Scrap Factor
and Usage Factor.
Note:
- Configuration Rule and Alternate Rule columns display the rule at the time
when the Snapshot ID is created. This means that if the configuration or alternate rule has been changed during
the revision/alternate life cycle, the displayed rule might not have been used for the component for all the
closed shop orders within the timeframe.
- The rules are displayed in the user language that created the Actuals Snapshot ID.
- For a non-configurable part, the structure usage factor is not displayed, actual usage factor and usage
factor difference is not calculated as the usage factor is not used for these parts.
- The attribute Alternate Component Factor will display planned and calculated values only for
Remanufacturing structures.
- For produced parts, the attribute Scrap Factor will display planned and calculated values
only for type Disassembly Component and Co-Product.
Prerequisites
- To calculate for a configurable part, IFS/Configuration Back Office and IFS/Configuration Characteristic must
have been installed.
- At least one configuration structure or product structure of type Manufacturing,
Repair, Prototype, Disassembly, or
Remanufacturing should exist.
- At least one closed shop order using the structure should exist within the date range used.
System Effects
- The actual structure attribute values are calculated.
- A new record with a new snapshot ID is created on Structure Component Actuals
Snapshot and Structure Component Actuals Snapshots page.
