Sequence operation activities

After you create the individual activities to be completed as part of an operation, you can modify the sequence in which these activities are performed. This sequence is called the activity flow.

As you sequence the activity flow, identify:

  • Preceding activities (those that must be completed before others can be started)

  • Parallel activities (those that can be completed at the same time as others)

To sequence operation activities:

Procedure

  1. Select an operation in the structure view.

  2. Choose Open With→Activities from the shortcut menu.

  3. In the Activities view, select the root activity.

  4. Choose Open With→PERT from the shortcut menu.Teamcenter opens a PERT view with the selected activity as scope.

  5. Sequence activities with the PERT view.

Note

You can also use the Activities Gantt Chart tab to sequence an activity.
