Creating Operations/Phases in the Graphic Mode

Prerequisites

The following data has been created in the system:

The general data of the master recipe header

The control recipe destinations that are responsible for carrying out the phases (see Customizing for Process Management)

Edit the operation or phase data in the dialog box.
The following table tells you:

Which fields are important for operations and which are used for phases
For which fields a default value may have been defined

CRD ( control recipe destination)		X	Recipe profile or resource
Resource ( primary resource)	X	Taken from operation
CtrK ( control key )	X	X
StTextK (standard text key)	X	X	Resource
Description	X	X

You can change the default values in the recipe, provided that they have not been marked as references in the resource.
If required, you can also change the recipe profile in the recipe (see Changing Recipe Profiles in Recipes ).

The system inserts the operation or phase in the display area.
