Define Crew Demands
Explanation
This activity is used to define crew resources required to perform a specific work task on Work
Task/Resources tab Demands section, including the duration for which they are planned.
One or more skill demands can be stated on a task. You can define a Crew Demand Type by defining only the
Crew Group and later assign a suitable Resource for it. If there is a definite
Resource needed to perform the work, it can be defined along with the Crew
Group.
A Sales part site and Sales part can be added on the demand line if the price
needs to be invoiced to the customer.
Prerequisites
- Crews and Crew Groups need to be defined and connected to each other in Resource Navigator and have
connections for the work task site.
- Crews and Crew Groups should be compatible to use in Maintenance.
- The Crew needs to be connected to the Maintenance Organization or allowed in any Maintenance Organization on
the Site (that is when Maintenance Organization is kept blank on the site record) in Resource
Details\Maintenance/Service tab.
System Effects
As a result of this activity,
- Demand lines with Demand Type Crew will be connected to the task.
- The Planned Hours field for the resource demand will default to the work task's duration
but can be adjusted as needed. The specified resource duration will be reflected in the planned resource
costs.
- Resource activities will be generated for demands based on the planned hours specified for each
resource.
