# Manage Plan Steps

:lock: Plan.**Edit**

## Overview

This operation is used to manage the **Plan Steps** that define the milestones for the counting of the actual volumes in the **Plan**.

## Setup

No specific setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

## Preconditions

* The **Plan** exists in the system and is Active.
* The **Plan** is an Effective Plan and is not a **Plan Scenario**.

## Sequence of Steps

The Manage Plan Steps operation can be called from the **Plan** page within the Business Data Group, scrolling to the Volume Counting Steps section in the main **Plan** page. In the wizard:

1. Add as many **Steps** as desired (press :material-plus: to add and :material-trash-can: to remove), specifying for each item:

      * The **Facility** from which the **Step** will be selected. The **Facility** will be automatically filled-in depending on the manufacturing level selected in the first panel.
      * The **Step**, selected from the list of **Steps** available in the manufacturing level selected for the **Plan**.
      * Optionally specify a logical **FlowPath** for the **Step** so that only **Materials** with this logical **FlowPath** may be considered.

2. Press **Update** to complete the transaction.
