Manufacturing Process Planner interface overview

1 Toolbar Provides a quick method for performing many of the most common tasks such as creating a structure, opening a structure by name, and adding resources.
2 Collaboration Context Tree view Shows all open structures in the application.
3 Structure view Shows each structure that is currently open in a separate view. A structure view contains, most commonly, a product, process, plant, or structure context. You can open multiple structures at once, including multiple products, processes or plants. A structure view is a primary view for which you can open multiple secondary views.
4 Manufacturing Features view Shows all the features found under the currently selected scope. The Manufacturing Features view is an example of a secondary view opened for a primary product structure view. The blue border around the Manufacturing Features view and the product structure view shows that they are associated.
5 Detached structure view Shows a process structure view that is detached from the Teamcenter window. You can detach and move any views to suit your needs.
6 Detached secondary view Shows the PERT view that allows you to modify the flow of processes or activities in a graphical manner. You can detach secondary views and associate them with detached primary views. You can move the detached primary and secondary views anywhere in the display area, including to a second monitor.
