 Correction Value

Use

You have the option to correct the authorized infrastructure of a force element (including the authorized lower-level force element) using the assignment of architectural objects that are used to map the infrastructure planning objects.

If required, you can model a different authorized value depending on the situation and adjust the result of an authorized/actual comparison at authorized level accordingly. The system takes these correction values into account during compression in the authorized/actual comparison. Positive correction values increase the authorized infrastructure and negative correction values reduce it.

These corrections adjust the authorized infrastructure of a force element, not the value of the infrastructure planning object itself.

Prerequisites

You have familiarized yourself with the setup of infrastructure planning objects , the authorized infrastructure , and the authorized/actual comparison.

Features

Mapping Correction Values

To map a correction value, you use the Structures Workbench to assign a force element with one main object or subobject (object type IPO1, IPO2, IPO3, or IPO4) of the infrastructure planning object whose values you want to correct. This enables you to systematically correct the following individual values of an infrastructure planning object:

  • The number of affected objects from the first or second planning level

  • The measurements of the affected objects

  • The number of fixtures and fittings of the affected objects

The reference object can also be a main object or a subobject that is assigned to a force element that is subordinate to the force element via an infrastructure planning object.

The following fields on the Infrastructure Planning Objects tab page in the Structures Workbench represent the properties of such an assignment:

  • Correction

    If this indicator is selected, the system values this assignment as a correction value. This indicator is selected automatically if you assign an architectural object of type IPO1, IPO2, IPO3, or IPO4.

  • Category

    Specifies whether a measurement, fixture/fitting, or number is to be corrected.

  • Key

    ID of the measurement of fixture/fitting of the architectural object that is assigned as the correction value

  • Value / Unit

    Value by which the relevant authorized infrastructure is to be corrected.

  • The following values are determined automatically by the system:

    • Level

      Specifies the planning level and the main or subobject that the correction relates to.

    • Function

      Specifies the function that the correction relates to.

    • Arch. Object ID / Reference IPO

      Specifies the architectural object (main or subobject) that the correction relates to.

Checks

When the status of a force element changes, the system checks whether it is possible to establish a useful relationship with corresponding infrastructure planning objects for assigned correction values. For more information, see Checks and Follow-Up Actions for Status Change .

Activities

The procedure for assigning an architectural object to a force element is basically the same as the process for assigning an infrastructure planning object (see also Assigning Material and Infrastructure Objects ).

Select an architectural object of type IPO1, IPO2, IPO3, or IPO4 that is part of an infrastructure planning system assigned to either the force element itself or a lower-level force element whose provision with buildings or land the higher-level force element is responsible for.
