| Configuration Management (CFG)The scope of Configuration Control is to serve the customer,
production, or planning department with accurate information on the
configuration of assets, called the installed base. These assets can be serialized items owned by customers, or internally owned
equipment. The Configuration Control consists of a multi-level configuration
structure definition and handling. The functionality allows you to: - Describe how the configuration or asset is built up, such as assets
components, or levels, as defined in the physical breakdown structure.
- Define a warranty for an asset or component. Also define if
repair warranty is applicable.
- Define an item breakdown template.
- Generate service configurations from Sales or Project, production bill of
material in Manufacturing,
or added directly to the configuration structure as a physical breakdown of
serialized items. Customized items can also be copied using these
processes.
- Copy selected production bill of material as item breakdown
structure.
- Present a graphical overview of the configuration.
