Process planning with precedence constraints

When you work in process planning with precedence constraints, Easy Plan displays error messages when you violate those constraints.

Prerequisites

  • You must configure Easy Plan to use precedence constraints.

  • You must define precedence constraints for your data.

Procedure

  1. If you have not already done so, search for and open a work package, and then navigate to the Process Planning page.

  2. In the Process table, perform process planning tasks. Easy Plan displays a message when you violate a precedence constraint. A precedence constraint can be violated within or between stations. Precedence constraints depend upon the mode in which you are working:

    Prevention mode—Easy Plan displays a message and does not allow you to move data.

    Warning mode—Easy Plan displays a message and allows you to move data.

  3. Resolve any precedence constraints and complete your process planning.
