You use this function in routings to determine which production resources/tools (PRT) are required to carry out an operation.
You can subsequently assign the PRTs as test equipment to the operation inspection characteristics.
The PRTs must have a master record in the system. According to the PRT category the following conditions have to be met additionally:
Materials, equipment and documents must be released, using their status, as production resources/tools.
Production resources/tools with a PRT master record (misc.) must be released in their status for use in resource planning.
PRTs with material masters, PRT masters or equipment masters must be intended for use in routing in their task list usage.
You can assign a PRT to several operations.
During assignment you can enter data that determine how the PRT should be treated during order processing.
