Managing time > Managing activity times using the TiCon integration

Add and replace activities by assigning time elements

Procedure

Search for a time element and select an appropriate one from the Search Result section of the TiCon Search view.
If the time element in TiCon contains a substructure, specify the number of levels of structure that you want to include in the activity structure. You can select from one to five levels, or all levels by selecting Unlimited.
(Optional, for a process only) In Operation name, overwrite the name of the TiCon activity. By default, Teamcenter assigns the description of the TiCon element as the name of the new operation containing that activity.
Do one of the following:

With a process selected as scope, click Add Below. Teamcenter creates a new operation as a child of the selected process and adds the selected search result below the operation. If you select multiple TiCon elements, Teamcenter creates a new operation for each one. You cannot use this option if the scope activity already has an associated time.

With an activity selected as scope, click Add Below. Teamcenter creates an activity with the selected time element and adds it under the current scope. This option is available only for a root activity or an activity that is not associated with a time element.

With an activity selected as scope, click Add After. Teamcenter adds the selected search result at the same level as the scope activity. You cannot use this option if the scope activity is the root node.

With an activity selected as scope, click Replace. Replaces the scope activity selected in the Time view with the selected search result. You cannot use this option if the scope activity has children.

Select Populate allocated time to calculate the allocated time on the parent process.

This option is available only if the view’s scope is a process.

(Optional) To add an element to a different activity, select the activity in Activities section of the Time view and click Change Scope or click Unlock Scope to work on the selected activity instead.
