Creating a Resource Network  

Purpose

You use resource networks to specify the sequence in which the resources are to be used in production.

In this process, you create a resource network, assign resources to it, and specify certain predecessor / successor relationships between the resources.

Prerequisites

The resources used are already created in the system.

Process Flow

  1. In resource network maintenance, you create a resource network (see also Creating a Resource Network).
  2. You assign resources to the resource network. You can use a network graphic to do this (see also Assigning Resources to a Resource Network).
  3. You determine predecessor / successor relationships between the assigned resources.
  4. If required, you can display the connections in resource maintenance or in resource network maintenance.
  5. You save the resource network.
