Effectivity Unit - Process Variables (tirou1114m000)

Use this session to make a process variable customer-specific by linking the process variable to an effectivity unit. A process variable is one of the features of a microrouting, and is used to establish settings or adjustments for a product.

Field Information

Effectivity Unit

effectivity unit

Configuration Ready

If this check box is selected, all desired requirements are selected for the unit effective item.

Item

The code of the end item.

The effectivity unit indicates that you have to do with one occurrence of the end item.

The item must be of one of the following types:
  • Purchased
  • Manufactured
  • Product

An effectivity unit for an end item can only be generated automatically, if the Unit Effective End Item check box is selected for the item in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session.

Note: 
  • The Item TypeProduct can be used only if the Item Type Product field can be set to Active in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
  • The Item TypePurchased and/or Manufactured is used only if the Item Type Product field is set to Inactive in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
Process Variable

Deviation Expressed In

How the deviation of the target value is expressed, Absolute or as a Percentage.

Norm

The process variable target value.

Limit Type

Select how the measurement deviation is expressed.

Note: 
  • If Absolute is selected, you must specify the upper and lower limits. Consequently LN the upper and lower tolerances are calculated.
  • If Percentage is selected, you must specify the upper and lower tolerances. Consequently LN the upper and lower limits are calculated.

Allowed values

Absolute

The upper and lower deviation of the target value is expressed as an absolute value.

  • Limit

    If the upper limit is expressed as an absolute value, the value is defined to which the process variable's target value can be exceeded.

    For example, if the norm is 30 and the upper limit must not exceed 33, 33 is displayed this field.

  • Percentage

Percentage

The upper and lower deviation of the target value is determined by a percentage.

  • Limit

    If the upper limit is expressed as a percentage, the percentage is defined with which the process variable's target value can be exceeded.

    For example, if the norm is 30 and the upper limit must not exceed 33, 10% is displayed in this field.

  • Percentage

    If the lower limit is expressed as a percentage, the percentage is defined that the process variable's input value can be lower than the norm.

    For example, if the norm is 30, and the lower control limit must not be lower than 27, 10% is entered in this field.

Upper Limit

The lower limit of the process variable as an absolute value.

Lower Limit

The upper limit of the process variable as an absolute value.

Lower Tolerance

The lower limit of the process variable as a percentage.

Upper Tolerance

The upper limit of the process variable as a percentage.
