Configuration#

This section covers only the configuration that is specific to Durables. Assume the base model, such as Calendars, Facilities, and Areas, already exists.

Useful Documentation

Use the Master Data file to load the model used in this tutorial.

Configure the Model#

  1. Define a Flow and the Steps where the Durables are stored.

  2. Create Products with the type set to Durable.

  3. Create the durable Materials that represent the physical tooling used in production.

  4. Create a BOM of scope Durables and define the required durable Product, the attachment position on the Resource, and the usage Step.

  5. Populate the MaterialDurablesContext Smart Table so the system resolves the correct BOM for each material context.

  6. Define the number of durable positions available on the Resource.

After you complete this configuration, continue to Scenarios. The scenarios validate the model in order, from a single durable requirement to a durable library.
