Tools (titrp0101m000)Use this session to maintain tool types. You can specify general and refurbishing data for each tool type. For example, the tool's life, the refurbishing data and the planning method are specified in this session. You can link tool types to reference activities, planned activities, and service activities in Service. Note
General Tool The ID of the tool. Type Tool category. Indicates if the tool:
Allowed values Planner The employee responsible for the maintenance of this tool
type. Planning Tool's Life Based On A tool's life is a value based on the number of times the tool can be used or the number of hours the tool can perform. You can modify this
field if the Tool is not yet entered the Availability Planning (titrp0513m000) session. Planning Method The planning method to estimate requirements and to issue
tools to the Production Order or Service Order. Schedule Constraint If this check box is selected, scheduling constrains
may apply to the tool's life cycle. Critical in Availability Planning If this check box is selected,, LN performs time-phased
availability planning for the planned and actual production orders to check if
the tool type is available. The values indicate if this tool type is critical for
availability planning of planned and actual production orders. Service Cost Rate The cost rate of the tool that is used in Service to calculate the
cost of the tool's usage. The time unit of the cost rate is defined in the Tool Planning Parameters (titrp0100s000) session. Currency One of a company's base currencies in which LN registers and reports
amounts. In a multicurrency system, up to three home currencies can be defined: Sales Rate The sales rate specified in the home currency. The sales rate is used to invoice the usage of tools directly
to the customer. Usage is based on the usage period in Service. The time unit of this rate is defined in the Tool Planning Parameters (titrp0100s000) session. Sales Rate The currency in which balances of entities shared by all the
companies of a financial company group are expressed. For example, LN uses the reference

Maintenance Unit Set The unit set you defined for the tool in the Unit Set field in
the Items (tcibd0501m000) session. Life The capacity of the tool expressed as the number of hours or
times it can be used. Note If the Tool's Life Based On field is set to Not Applicable, you cannot maintain this field. Refurbishing Point Unit The unit in which the refurbishing point
is expressed. Allowed values
Refurbish At The number of times the tool can be used before it must be refurbished. The
refurbishing point is based on the number of times or the number of hours that
the tool is used. Note You can specify of usages if the Life field is based on Number of Times Used or the Number of Hours Used. Warning Percentage The point at which a warning must be displayed that the tool
must be refurbished. Example Refurbishing point = 1000 Warning percentage = 25% If the warning percentage is 25 for each tool type, a warning is displayed when the tools have been used approximately 750 times. Refurbishing Point Reduction Percentage Thepercentage by which the refurbishing point of the tool is
reduced after refurbishing. The refurbishing point of a tool is reduced by the percentage specified, after you complete a service order to refurbish the tool. Example If the refurbishing point is 25, and the reduction percentage is 40, the refurbishing point after completion of the service order is 15 (40% * 25 = 10. If you subtract 10 from refurbishing point 25, the new refurbishing point is 15). Maximum Number of Refurbishings The maximum number of times the tool can be refurbished. If
this value is 0 (zero) the amount of refurbishing orders you can create is
unlimited. Refurbish by The type of order required for refurbishment. Allowed values
