You can enter a short text for the process on the Basic Data screen. You can also maintain a sort string, the CAPP planner, the status and catchwords. In a later release you can use the catchword entered to classify the processes.

If at least one method is allocated to the process and if a text has already been created for the process, then the indicator Process text is set. The name of the process, the short text and the characteristics of the allocated methods are displayed in a process text. You can create a process text in two ways:

  • Select the menu options   Extras   Process text   or the function key Process text. You reach the SAP editor. Enter the desired text. Save the text you have entered by selecting the menu options   Text   Save   .  

  • If you want the system to create a process text select the menu options   Extras   Generate process txt   . The system creates the process text and you can change and add to it. To change the process text, select the menu options   Extras   Process text   .  

Note Note

The system can only generate a process text if at least one method is allocated to the process.

End of the note.

If the indicator Process text is set, then you can set the indicator Text generation . This has the effect that a process text is generated when a standard values calculation or a simulation takes place. In a standard values calculation the process text can be transferred into the operation text.
