How to select multiple machines into a new item type

Hi folks, i'm working in ARAS for my university project. I need some help from you guys. Project is to develop a platform in aras which is responsible to show sequence of operations(activities) with corresponding machines for every product type in a company. so i started to do in process plan and  i created an item type named activities where list of activities are displayed. My question is how i can select multiple machines when i'm creating new item in activities and how can i link this item type named activities in process plan under 'add operation'. when i want to add new operation,  i want to choose directly from activities. i'm doing in Aras Innovator Version 11.0 SP12

    Hi, 

    What you describe sounds like a requirement for Resource Management in Project Plans. Unfortunately not enough people ask about this one in the past, so there is right now no ready-to-use option available.

    Maybe this discussion provides you a few additional ideas:
    community.aras.com/.../handle-resources-in-aras-project-management-possible

    This github projects may also be of interest:
    github.com/.../aras-pm-resource-mgmt
    Warning: It´s describes a basic concept, it´s far aways from ready to use solution! Take a look at the Image that shows the Activity. You can add an additional relationship for handling your machines.
    Unfortunately that´s already everything the projects provides. The main task it to integrate this one into the rest of Project Managment, maybe with an additional Gantt Chart or similar.
