Update PERT flows

Use this feature to update pert flows according to the find number of the selected line’s children, or in the case of multiple selections, of the selected lines. This is necessary if you change the find numbers of processes or operations in a structure.

Procedure

Select the scope.

If the PERT view is open, ensure that the scope selected for the PERT view is the desired one. Teamcenter uses the PERT view’s scope as the scope to update the flows.

If the PERT view is not open, select one or more lines in a process structure.

Choose Tools→Update Flows.
Select Include Structure Sub-Hierarchies to update all sub-hierarchy flows except for activity flows.
Click OK. This command works only for processes with children. If you make multiple selections, the command works only for processes with the same parent and of the same type.Teamcenter removes all the flows of the selected process and creates new flows according to the find numbers.
(Optional) Reapply a layout algorithm to clean up the PERT chart.
