Creating reports in the rich client

Manufacturing Process Management provides a framework on which you can create reports that are relevant to your manufacturing processes and the Report Generator application that produces the predefined reports.

For example, you may want to create a report that details the usage of various machined components in assembly operations. From the definition of the product structure, Teamcenter extracts the following information:

• The name or identification of each part consumed in the manufacturing process. Thumbnail pictures can also be included if required.

• Detailed information about each part, such as the dimensions, quantity, and Make/Buy status.

• A graphical representation of the manufacturing structures and assemblies. Each part is linked to others to show the hierarchy in the assembly structure.

A summary page may define the total number of components, welds, and the comparative number of bought and manufactured parts.
