Project

A collection of manufacturing and purchasing actions that are performed especially for a particular customer order. A project is initiated to plan and coordinate the production of these items.

For a standard-to-order production, the project is only used to link the item with the customer order. Otherwise, a project can include:

  • Customized item data (BOMs and routings)
  • Project planning (activity planning)
Link Operations to Activities

If this check box is selected, the customized operations are automatically linked to an activity in the activity network.

This goes as follows:

  • If the activity code in the Activities (tipcs4101m000) session has not been filled in, or if you indicated that the code can be overwritten, LN first searches for an activity in which the task AND the work center of the activity match the task and the work center of the customized operation.
  • If this activity code is not present, LN searches for an activity in which the task OR the work center of the activity matches with the task or work center of the customized operation.
  • If this activity code is not present, LN searches for an activity in which the main work center of the activity matches the main work center of the customized operation.
  • LN, finally, reports if the customized operation cannot be linked to an activity.
Overwrite Activity Code

If this check box is selected, the customized operations which have already been linked to an activity are re-linked to an activity in the activity network.
