Create a process resource in the plant BOP tree

You can create a process resource in the plant bill of process (plant BOP) tree and then assign operations to it. The process resource can be an operator or a machine.

Prerequisites

You must set the TCAllowedChildTypes value to Mfg0ProcResourceRevision. In addition, you must add TCAllowedChildTypes to the AWC_StartupPreferences in the Teamcenter rich client.

See the Preferences section in the Active Workspace Administration documentation for a description of preferences and how to set them.

Procedure

  1. Search for and open an existing work package and then navigate to the Process Planning page.

  2. Expand the assembly, select a station, and then click Create Process Resource . Note You must create the process resource from a process station. You cannot create the process resource from other objects within the product BOP.

  3. In the Create Process Resource dialog box select the process resource type, then type a Name and click Create.

       Teamcenter
         Easy Plan creates the process resource as a child of the station.
    
  4. (Optional) In the assembly, select the process resource you created and click Create Operation . Teamcenter Easy Plan creates the operation as a child of the process resource, and assigns that operation to the process resource.
