 Creating/Changing As-Built Configurations Using Node Assignment

Use

You use this procedure if withdrawals of serialized components already exist.

  2. In the standard system, the list input screen appears. To change the type of processing, choose List<->Tree.

  3. Enter an order number or a material with serial number.

  4. You define whether explosion of the order structure is to be single-level or multi-level .

  • If you choose single-level , then you create the as-built configuration for the order entered. This scenario can be used for creation during the production process.

  • If you choose multi-level , then you also create as-built configurations for the subordinate orders. This scenario can be used for creation after production. In this case, you enter the order for the finished product.

  1. Choose Explode.

The order structure is displayed in the left half of the screen. Under the order structure you see the available serial numbers for the material that is selected in the order structure. Serial numbers that are already used in an as-built configuration are marked with . Serial numbers that are not yet used in an as-built configuration are marked with .

  1. You can now create new as-built configurations or change existing as-built configurations.

To create a new as-built configuration, proceed as follows:

  1. Select the material for which you want to create a new as-built configuration.

  2. The serial numbers that are available for this material appear.

  3. Select the serial number (item is marked with ).

  4. Assign the serial number to the item As-built configuration .

  5. You can extend an as-built configuration by carrying out more assignments (see change).

To change (extend) an existing as-built configuration, proceed as follows:

  1. Select the material for which you want to change the as-built configuration.

  2. The serial numbers that are available for this material appear.

  3. Select the serial number (item is marked with ).

  4. Assign the serial number to the item As-built configuration .

  5. An existing as-built configuration appears on the right of the screen.

  6. Select the material that you want to assign to an item of the existing as-built configuration.

  7. Select the serial number (item is marked with ).

  8. Assign the serial number to an item of the existing as-built configuration using Drag&Drop.

The assigned materials are transferred to the structure, but are not yet saved in the as-built configuration ( symbol for a component, for the top-level material in an as-built configuration). Materials that are already part of an as-built configuration are marked with the symbol. To reverse an assignment, select the assignment and choose .

Note Note

You can also carry out assignment by selecting the serial number and the item in the as-built configuration to which you want to assign the serial number and then choose .

End of the note.
  1. Select the top-level material in the as-built configuration. You have the following options when you save:

You choose

You create assignment(s)

Create/change as-built in foreground

as an as-built configuration by switching to the transaction for installed base management. Then, the installed base is only saved when you select the symbol for saving in installed base management. Before saving, you can still make manual changes or additions.

Create/change as-built in background

as an as-built configuration without switching to installed base management.
