Define Execution Logic Grouping Criteria

Explanation

This activity is used to define the grouping criteria that will be used to define the Execution Logic Structure (ELS) per product and model. You can choose from 5 predefined grouping elements corresponding to attributes located on an instruction or subtask. These predefined grouping elements can be grouped, sequenced and ordered according to your requirements. Following is a list of the predefined grouping elements:

• Execution Phase ID
• Function Number
• Competence
• Instruction Location
• Zone ID

Grouping criteria is defined per product model and grouping ID. The main purpose behind the grouping identifier is to allow high flexibility on the number of grouping criteria that can be set up for each product and model. This is useful, for instance, when different kinds of maintenance visits are handled.

Once the grouping criteria is defined, you need to perform the Complete Grouping Criteria menu option. When this is done, basic data for the selected grouping criteria, which should be included when generating structure will be retrieved and the ELS template created accordingly. Note: To limit the amount of basic data used to generate the ELS template, only the basic data records that have the Include in Execution Logic Planning check box selected will be considered.

Prerequisites

• Product models must be defined.
• The grouping ID must be in the New status.

System Effects

• Execution logic grouping criteria is defined.
• An ELS template can be generated.
