Checklist: Bottom-Up Propagation of Characteristics
Use
The following checklist provides details the key prerequisites and procedures for the options for block planning, configuration or rule definition, and planning parameters. Take account of these when you define propagation for a production process model .
Structure

Procedure |
Prerequisites |
|
|---|---|---|---|
Block planning |
Propagation of characteristic value assignments to activities Value assignment for activity is compared with required criteria for the block assigned to the resource |
Classify requirement node (which characteristics are to be used for the component?) Define standard value assignment or bottom-up propagation for activity |
Activities must be classified in the same way as resources, define propagation if necessary Block definition |
Rules (configuration) |
Rule definition for activity, i.e. selection (by restriction) of modes and logical components Rule definition for logical components: Selection by prioritization of products |
Classify component Define propagation (with requirement node as source) |
Classify plan, operation, or activity |
Planning parameters |
If activities are classified, the planning parameters of the dependent modes (PP= duration) and primary resources (PP= resource consumption) can be overwritten If logical components are classified, the planning parameters of the dependent products (PP= material consumption) can be overwritten. |
Classify component Set planning parameter (define macro if necessary) |
The assigned PPM component must be classified Appropriate bottom-up propagation instructions must be defined |
