Group the operations in a process for use in line balancing

Group operations in a process, so you can use the process as a container for the total allocated time values of the operations in line balancing.

Procedure

1. If you have not done so already, search for and open an existing work package that contains processes and operations, and navigate to the Product BOP Authoring page.

2. In the Product BOP panel, press Ctrl and then click every operation you want to attach to the target process.

3. In the Product BOP panel toolbar, select Cut .

4. Select the target process, and in the toolbar, select Paste → Paste Into. The operations are now moved into the process.

Results

On the Line Balancing page, in the Operations panel, the Allocated Time by Product Variant column displays the sum of the allocated time values of all operations. Only the process is visible.
