Changing the Network for the Generator 

Use

The network for the generator has to be changed so that activities for in-house production have to be planned instead of activities for external procurement.

First of all, delete all the activities that belong to the Generator network. You can find these under the WBS elements Basic Engineering, Detail Engineering and Generator. Then you can copy a standard network for in-house production and assign the Basic Engineering, Generator and Detail Engineering Generator activities to the appropriate WBS elements. Furthermore, change the relationship of the Sales Processing Generator activity. Assembly is to become part of this activity. Therefore, a successive, or follow-up relationship ensues for the Assembly Generator activity (please see graphic below).

Procedure

  1. Call up the transaction as follows:
  2. Menu Path

    From the Simulation node, choose Change.

    Transaction Code

  3. Enter the following data:
  4. Field

    Data

    Vers. key

    SIM20###

    Project def.

    A-20###

  5. Choose Open project.

Deleting an Activity

  1. Select the following activities:
  2. Activity

    Assigned to WBS element

    Basic Engineering Generator

    Basic Engineering

    Detail Engineering Generator

    Detail Engineering

    Activity 030 RFQ/Inquiry Generator to 070 Shipping Processing Generator

    Generator (below WBS element component)

    You can select more than one activity by keeping the Cntrl key pressed.

  3. Choose Edit ® Delete ® Deletion flag.
  4. In the dialog box, choose Yes.

The systems flags the activities for deletion.

Creating a New Activity

  1. Select WBS element Generator.
  2. Choose .
  3. A structure overview with templates appears on the left-hand side of the screen.

  4. Call the dialog box for copying to templates by double-clicking on Standard networks.
  5. Enter the following data:
  6. Field

    Data

    Standard network

    A-20301

  7. Choose .
  8. The network is copied to the structure overview as a template.

  9. Copy the activities and relationships to the simulation below the WBS element Generator by double-clicking on the standard network A-20301.

Processing an Activity

  1. Select all the activities that have just been added.
  2. Choose .
  3. The detail screen for the first activity appears.

  4. For each activity, replace the short text Control station technology with Generator.
  5. To scroll back to the activity Basic Engineering Generator, choose .
  6. On the Assignments tab page, change the WBS element that has been assigned for the Basic Engineering Generator and Detail Engineering Generator as follows:
  7. Activity

    WBS element

    Basic Engineering Generator

    A-20###-02-01

    Detail Engineering Generator

    A-20###-02-02

  8. Choose .

Changing the Relationship

  1. Select the activity Transportation generator.
  2. By copying the relationships from the control station technology standard network, this activity follows up activity 20 for the assembly of the control station in the network Assembly Components.

  3. Choose .
  4. To change the relationships, choose the Successors tab page.
  5. Enter the following data in the upper area of the table:
  6. Field

    Data

    Activity
