Use

You use mass changes if you want to change the attributes of multiple operations and sub-operations all at once.

Example

You want the Setup standard value to be reduced from 2 minutes to 1 minute, for all operations that are carried out at the WRKCT01 work center.

You use the update mass changes function if you want to change all at once changes statuses that follow one-another chronologically.

Features

You can change as many (sub-) operation attributes at the same time as you like. You can define exactly which objects are affected by the mass change.

If the system discovers that it cannot carry out a change, it writes an appropriate error message in a log and continues with the mass change.

Example

You are trying to change operation IDs or to assign a length to time-related standard values. The operation IDs and the time-related standard values remain unchanged and the system writes appropriate error messages in the log.

Mass change updates allow you to also change statuses that follow one-another chronologically as well as those change statuses that were created with the change number used for mass changing.
