The smallest part of the activity structure used for a time-scaled budget. An entity that is used to represent a part of a project in an activity structure.

LN distinguishes these activity types:

• WBS Element
• Control Account
• Work Package
• Planning Package
• Milestone

A hierarchical structure that organizes and defines the total scope of the project. Each level represents an increasingly detailed definition of a work project. In contrast to the element structure, the activity structure is activity time oriented.

An item that is produced or purchased before a customer order is received.

If an anonymous item is a manufactured item, it is produced in a make-to-stock production environment. If an anonymous item is a generic item, a product variant is configured without using a PCS project.

A text file that uses the ASCII standard code to represent characters and punctuation marks as numbers. The ASCII code also includes control characters to indicate carriage return, backspace and so on.

A list of all parts, raw materials, and subassemblies that go into a manufactured item and show the quantity of each of the parts required to make the item. The BOM shows the single-level product structure of a manufactured item.

Orders that are used to record, approve, and carry through all kinds of changes.

For example, a change order can be related to engineering matters or to business processes.

Change request initiates the change process. Change requests are recorded from a variety of request sources, such as demands in the marketplace, product reviews, and customer response for making product innovations and upgrades. Information stored in each change request form enables you to track various changes as requested by various sources.

An item produced on a customer specification for a specific project. A customized item can have a customized BOM and/or a customized routing and is normally not available as a standard item. A customized item can, however, be derived from a standard item or a generic item.

The multilevel, multiparent, hierarchical tree-like structure of elements that can be the basis of a budget.

A grouping of exchangeable items with identical functions. Functional elements can be used in item breakdowns, physical breakdowns, and reference activities.

Example

When a maintenance activity is defined for a configuration, a functional element can be specified. This way, the activity applies to all items covered by that functional element, and multiple, identical reference activities for similar items are avoided.

A standard maintenance item.

A standard item's list of constituent components. The item breakdown can be displayed as a multilevel structure or as a single-level structure, and can be used as input for a physical breakdown.

The item's economic lifetime.

A number of items produced and stored together that are identified by a (lot) code. Lots identify goods.

Orders that are used to plan, carry out, and control the maintenance on customer-owned components, products and the logistic handling of spare parts.

A template that specifies the structure of an identification code. A mask is used to generate the identifiers for objects such as serial numbers, handling units, or shifts.

The point where the measurement is performed.

Example

Measuring profile of a tire, specify Left Front/ Right Front and so on.

An endeavor with a specific objective to be met within the prescribed time and financial limitation, and that has been assigned for definition or execution.

A charge (element) breakdown structure or an element structure that is defined in Project.

An agreement that is used to sell items or services to a business partner according to certain terms and conditions. A sales order consists of a header and one or more order lines.

The general order data such as business partner data, payment terms, and delivery terms are stored in the header. The data about the actual items to be supplied, such as price agreements and delivery dates, is entered on the order lines.

A subdivision of the item code in different logical parts, called segments.

These segments are visible in the sessions as separate fields. Examples of segments are:

• Project segment
• Cluster segment
• Item identification

An item that is uniquely identified by the item code (manufacturer part number) in combination with the serial number.

A physical occurrence of a standard item that is given a unique lifetime serial number. This enables tracking of the individual item throughout its lifetime, for example, through the design, production, testing, installation, and maintenance phases. A serialized item can consist of other serialized components.

Examples of serialized items are cars (Vehicle Identification Number), airplanes (tail numbers), PCs, and other electronic equipment (serial numbers).
