Where are "Resources" stored?
I need to add some "Resources". If I use the 'Create' button and manually add them where are these stored in code base. Our Production environment is missing some resources. I want to add them in my dev. environment and the export the XML but I can't find where would the new enteries be stored. "Resources" comes from mpp_machine item , guessing from the icon, which is poly-source item to mpp_Resource if that helps. Thanks!
Change Management for Manufacturing Process Planning (MPP)
Hello all, I am currently investigation best-practices for Change Management (CM) related to manufacturing process plans (MPP). There is a lot of information available on CM of Parts and (CAD) Documents, but not so much about updating the related Process Plans. I am wondering if anyone is willing to share their opinion and recommendations for revising Process Plans. Do you manage MPP changes separately or is it part of your MBOM configuration? What initiates an MPP change? Engineering Change > Manufacturing Change > Process Plan Change? Document > Process Plan Step > Process Plan Change? Any other? What Aras ItemType do you use as change container (ECN, ECO, ECR, etc.)? I hope we can have an open discussion to learn more from each other! Best regards, Daan
Callback not working properly if I dont have debugger in my javascript code
I have added a popup on button click on the mpp_OperationQuickEdit Form which opens form with a single relationship which I have created.It works like the 'Launch AML Editor' action on MCOs.I have added a save changes button which adds or remove relationships based on relationship added or removed.Then a callback function is provided.the relationships are added or removed successfully but the problem is that the callback works fine if I have put debugger in my javascript code otherwise it just closes both the forms the new popup and the quickEdit form.What could be the problem?
Manufacturing Process Plan (MPP) Add Foreign Data Type to Item?
Trying to add a Foreign Data property to the Item Type "mpp_ProcessPlan". Had a user request that the Produced Part number be displayed/searchable from the MPP grid. Currently there is a Relationship tab to the Produced Part "mpp_ProcessPlanProducedPart". When I add a new property on the MPP_ProcessPlan Item Type, I do not see the produced part in the Foreign Property Selection Tree. Is there a way to add to the selection tree? See attached for screenshots.[View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/3/MPP-Produced-Part.docx:320:240] Has any one done this? What am I missing? Thanks, Jake
Defining a workflow process and map vs process plan
Hi If my understanding is correct. a lifecycle is the states an item (be it a part, equipment or document) goes through. The manufacturing process plan is the plan (list of operations and steps) required to realize a part or product. Then what is the workflow map, process, activity, assignment and task? And can a workflow process not be the same as a manufacturing process plan? Is there possibly a document that clearly defines these, their relation to one another and to which items they relate to (part, product, document etc.) ThanksHow to roll-up cycle times and costs of MBOM in Aras MPP Process Plans?
At the moment, we can add cycle times and setup times to operations, and cycle times to steps. But this information does not display anywhere once entered. That is fine, but at least if there was the ability to roll-up the cycle times of all the operations in the Process plan, taht would be great. Has anybody attempted this on their isntances? On a similar vein, the phantoms and MBOM only parts consumed have costs associated with them (for ex. I intend to have 'Material' category parts in the MBOM (we use polyureethanes for casting) as the quantity and hence the cost of the material is a process parameter and not an EBOM item. Is there any way to roll-up the 'MBOM cost'? Would appreciate if anybody could point me in the direction of how to set this up Regards Sachin
MPP Operations does not saved when I changed to select an existing operation. Thanks.
Hi all, Hope you are doing well during the quarantine! Here is an urgent issue that need your help. In MPP (Process Plan) module, we are trying to change to select an existing operation instead of inserting an operation manually in MPP. Since I updated the code as Screenshot below, the operation dialog works as I expected, but the Operations we selected does not save into database, of course it does not show in the mpp panel as well. please see the screenshots below. Thanks very much. Best regards, Jen Li
