Creating Relationships in the Operation Graphic 

Prerequisites

The phases of the master recipe have been created in the system (see Editing Operations/Phases or Creating Operations/Phases in the Graphic Mode).

The operation graphic only shows several recipes if they have been linked by relationships. In most cases, you therefore create relationships across recipes on the relationship overview of the corresponding phase ( Editing Relationships on the Relationship Overview).

Procedure

  1. Choose on the operation overview.

Depending on the settings made in the graphic profile, the graphic comprises the Display, Navigation, and/or Entry sections. To carry out the steps described below, you need the display area. If necessary, change the graphic layout (see Setting Up the Operation Graphic Layout).

  1. Choose in the graphic.
  2. In the display area, click the predecessor phase, hold the left mouse button and drag the cursor to the successor phase. Release the mouse button.

Note that you must either click the left or the right side of the phase symbol depending on the type of relationship you want to create (see graphic).

An arrow is used to display the relationships you have created either as time-dependent or as FS relationship. If necessary, change the graphic layout (see Setting up the Operation Graphic Layout).

  1. In the display area, click on the background.
  2. The function for creating relationships is switched off.

  3. Double-click the relationship you have created.
  4. The relationship detail screen appears.

  5. Enter data as required.
