Activity Overview by Project (tipcs4502m000)

The site ID.

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

Indicates the current progress of the project.

This code identifies an activity in the network planning for a project.

An alternative form of a description used for convenience during searching. Typically, it is an abbreviation, an acronym, or a mnemonic alternative to a full description.

LN shows the number of the task linked to the activity.

The code of the work center or the main work center where the activity is carried out.

A person responsible for planning or carrying out a project activity.

This field shows whether or not a text is present.

A table in which you can define how the rough capacity requirements are to be distributed over the capacity duration. The x coordinate is a percentage of the activity duration. The y coordinate is a percentage of rough capacity requirements.

The globally needed capacity in hours for the execution of the relevant activity.

The aggregated capacity requirements in hours of the work center where the activity is scheduled to be carried out. The aggregated capacity requirements are calculated in the Aggregate Estimated Capacity to Project (tipcs4201m000) session on the basis of the project structure and the project engineering. You can only do this if the operations have been linked to activities in the customized routing. Dependent on the value of the Critical Capacity for Planning field in the Work Centers (tirou0101m000) session, Man Capacity or Machine Capacity is used to calculate the aggregated capacity.

Enter the available capacity in hours per day. This capacity is used to calculate the default activity duration. The planning factor enables you to record the available capacity in hours per day for each employee or machine.

The planning factor indicates how many employees or machines are employed simultaneously for the execution of an activity. This factor is used only to calculate the default duration of the activity on the basis of the global capacity requirements and the available hours per day.

The time between the production start date and the delivery date. The lead time can include order preparation time, transportation time, and inspection time.

The earliest date on which the activity can be started. You can determine this date using the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session.

The last date on which the activity can be started. Determine this date by using the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session.

Rhe earliest date on which the activity can be completed. Determine this date using the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session.

The last date on which the activity can be completed. Determine this day using the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session.

The total float of an activity is the maximum time expressed in (working) days in which that activity can be shifted without affecting the planned completion date of the relevant project.

The free float time between one activity and the next. The free float time indicates how many days the activity can be extended without jeopardizing the progress of other related activities.

The date on which you want to start the relevant activity. This date is only used for information. However, the desired start date is compared to the earliest and latest finish dates and the reference date in the Generate Network Messages (tipcs4211m000) session. This can result in the creation of exception messages.

The date on which you want to stop the execution of the relevant activity. This date is only used for information. However, the desired finish date is compared to the earliest and latest finish date and the reference date via the session Generate Network Messages (tipcs4211m000), which can result in the creation of exception messages.

Indicates whether the relevant activity must be included in the estimated cost-price calculation for the project. This can be especially important for indirect activities, such as engineering.

The Low Level code indicates the lowest level at which the activity is found in the activity network for the project. This code is determined by the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session.

The actual start date for the activity is the date on which its execution was started. LN fills the actual start date, when transaction hours are processed with the Process Hours and Expenses (bptmm1203m000) session, or when a network calculation is executed using the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session. You can change this date manually.

The actual finish date for the activity is the date on which time was last spent on or on which the activity was completed. LN fills the actual finish date, when transaction hours are processed with the Process Hours and Expenses (bptmm1203m000) session, or when a network calculation is executed using the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session. You can change this date manually.

The actual hours spent on the relevant activity. Based on the hours transactions linked to the activity, LN automatically updates this value in the Process Hours and Expenses (bptmm1203m000) session.

The percentage completed shows the activity's progress.

This field indicates whether the percentage completed must be automatically determined using either the Process Hours and Expenses (bptmm1203m000) session when transaction hours are processed, or the Generate Network Planning (tipcs4210m000) session when a network calculation is executed for the project.
