Set precedence constraints and lag and lead times

You can define detailed constraints between the work orders of a process plan. You can add lead or lag times to these constraints indicating that, for example, Work Order 2 must begin two days after Work Order 1 to allow time for paint drying or that Work Order 2 must begin one day before Work Order 1 ends.

Procedure

1. Select two work orders in the 4D Gantt view and click the Create Precedence Constraint button on the view toolbar.

Teamcenter draws an arrow from the predecessor work order to the successor work order.

2. Right-click the precedence arrow and choose Edit Precedence Constraint.

3. Select Lag or Lead and enter the number of days in the box.

4. Click OK.
