Example of how to copy and assign custom occurrence types to processes and operations

This example shows how to add copy, paste, and assign custom occurrence types created in the Business Modeler Integrated Development Environment () to processes and operations in Manufacturing Process Planner.

1. In the BMIDE, create new custom occurrence types for your project.

            Project
          
          
            Name
          
          
            Display Name
          
          
            Description
          
        
      
        
          
            DLDEV
          
          
            DL_MEPublication
          
          
            ME Publication
          
          
            Used for internal BOP product document.
          
        
        
          
            DLDEV
          
          
            DL_MEReference
          
          
            ME Reference
          
          
            Used for external BOP product and supplier documents.
   

2. After deploying the template, add a new preference (for example, DL_DocumentOccTypes), containing the new custom occurrence type values DL_MEPublication and DL_MEReference.

3. Update the preference MEDisplayOccurrenceType with the new preference values.

    MEProcess:Document:DL_DocumentOccTypes
    MEOP:Document:DL_DocumentOccTypes
   

4. Update the preference MEAssignCustomizedOccurrenceType with new values.

    MEProcess.Document:DL_MEPublication
    MEProcess.Document:DL_MEReference
    MEOP.Document:DL_MEPublication
    MEOP.Document:DL_MEReference
   

5. Update the preference MERelationTypePartsOtherAssigned with the new custom occurrence type values.

    DL_MEPublication
    DL_MEReference
   

In Manufacturing Process Planner, when you add a new document to a process or operation, then copy it, right-click another process or operation and then select Paste As→MEReference, the item is added with the appropriate custom occurrence type, MEPublication or MEReference.
