General tab

  1. Specify a description same as the name of the description.
  2. Assign a version number. This enables you to distinguish between process steps with the same main product.
    Note: 
    • You can define a default version at product level.
    • You can select end product step version to be read in with orders.
  3. Assign a sequence code. This enables you to determine batch sequence when scheduling and can be used in multi-level sequences.
  4. Specify a method.
  5. Define a batch color. This applies to all batches in the planning board that are part of this step.
  6. Modify the selection for the Infor ERP Adage field by using the corresponding list, if required for integration.
  7. Specify the release duration for the main product.
  8. Specify a value in CIP factor.
    Note: The CIP factor is defined for non-CIP steps. This value defines how much a batch contributes to the CIP on a resource. This value is used by the CIP solver to determine the contribution of batches to the CIP calculations. The standard contribution is multiplied by the CIP factor of the process batch's process step. By default, the CIP factor is set to 1, but can be smaller or larger than 1.
