Defining Sequence-of-Events Details
Access the Edit Sequence of Events form.
- Associated Item Number
Enter an associated item number if you want to copy the sequence of events information from another product. If you leave this field blank, the system uses the product number. When you tie a sequence of events to an associated item, the system writes a copy of the associated item's sequence of events to the FF30L115 table.
If you make changes to the associated item, the system deletes the sequence-of-events tasks from the table and attempts to copy the associated item's sequence of events. Before completing this action, the system issues a warning because the deletion is not reversible.
If you delete the associated item's sequence of events, any other sequences of events that are based on the associated item's sequence of events revert to their own product number.
- SSOE Name (standard sequence of events name)
(Optional) Enter the name of a standard sequence of events; the system ties the sequence of events to the standard sequence of events that is defined here. To retain the link, you can make only certain changes. You break the link if you:
Change the sequence number.
Add a new sequence-of-events task.
Change the standard sequence-of-events name.
You can delete a task without breaking the link between the sequence of events and the standard sequence of events. When you delete a task, it remains in the table, but is marked as deleted. You can view it, but not edit it. The deletion breaks the link between the two tasks. You cannot restore this link. If you change the sequence-of-events task, the sequence of events and standard sequence of events remain linked, but the link between the corresponding tasks is broken.
- Component Effective Date
Enter a date to indicate which components from the bill of material can be consumed in the sequence-of-events task. The default value is the current date.
Note: Set this date and do not change it after attaching components to sequence-of-events tasks. Changing the date later may invalidate consumed component data. The system issues a warning when you change the date, but does not perform a validation. You can locate potential errors only on the Assign Components Consumed form for each task that consumes a component.- Component Consumed
Indicates whether the task consumes components from the bill of material. The default value is No.
- SSOE Comparison (standard sequence of events comparison)
If you have created the sequence of events based on a standard sequence of events, this field indicates whether you have modified the sequence-of-events task so that it differs from the original standard sequence-of-events task. Values are:
Blank: The sequence of events is not attached to a standard sequence of events.
SSOE (standard sequence of events): The sequence of events is attached to a standard sequence of events, but you have not modified the task.
SSOE Deleted (standard sequence of events deleted): You have deleted the task.
SSOE Changed (standard sequence of events changed): You have changed the line.
