Perform Setup#

🔒 Resource.PerformSetup

Overview#

This operation is used to perform the required setup for a Material, at a particular Resource.

For more information, see Perform Line Setup and Perform Pre Setup.

Setup#

No special set up is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

Preconditions#

  • The Resource exists, it is Active and it is either:
    • Top-Most with the Processing Type set as Process or Line.
    • A Resource with the Processing Type set as Process for which the Parent Resource is a Top-Most Resource with the Processing Type set as Line and for which the Resource Setup Mode is different from Not Required.
  • If the Resource Setup Mode is Not Required, you must provide a Material that exists, is Top-Most, is Active, and the State must be Queued or Dispatched at the Resource.
  • If the Resource Setup Mode is different from Not Required and the Setup Begin and Complete Mode is Auto Begin and Complete and In Setup is false:
    • You must provide a Top-Most Material.
  • If the Resource Setup Mode is different from Not Required and In Setup is true:
    • You can provide a Material – if provided it must match the Current Setup Material.
    • The Resource Current Setup Type is No Changeover or Changeover.
  • If the Resource Setup Mode is different from Not Required:
    • The Setup Begin and Complete Mode is Manual Begin And Complete, and the Resource In Setup must be true.

Tip

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required, the page and navigation within it provide a cockpit user experience (some examples are shown below), which will allow you to more easily flow between the setup entities.

Info

For a better user experience and an enhanced workflow, when switching between the cockpit tabs the system automatically saves any changes.

Sequence Of Steps#

Step 1: Resource#

This step provides basic information about the selected Material and Resource.

  1. Review the information and select Next to continue.

Perform Setup Step 1

Note

If the Resource has lanes configured and Is Multilane Active set to true, a Resource Lane section will be available, and you will have to select a valid Lane of the Resource.

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the first tab of the Resource is called Information, and will display Setup Information and Material Information:

Perform Setup Step 1a

Step 2: Documents#

Warning

Only available if there are Documents associated with the Resource and State Transition Context.

This step is used to display Documents which are associated to the transaction context. To open a document, you need to select it.

Info

Documents are configured in the Document Material Context.

Perform Setup Step 2

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the Documents page will include all the documents that have been configured and you can freely move between them:

Perform Setup Step 2a

Note

When adding a Material Context Record(s), Operation field, or a Resource Context Record(s), State Transition field, to a Document, you should only use the PerformSetupNoChangeOver option if the Resource is configured to use Different Setup Operations. Otherwise, you may not be able to view or access your Document.

Step 3: Recipe#

Warning

Only available if the Resource on which the Material is being tracked in is configured to enable Recipe Management.

This step is used to visualize the Recipe along with its parameter information.

  1. Review the Recipe and its parameters.

Info

Recipes are configured in the Service Recipe Context.
Additionally, if the Required Service for the Material at the Resource has the property Requires Running Mode set to true, you must specify a valid Running Mode for the Resource. For more information, see Manage Running Modes.

Perform Setup Step 3

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the Recipe page will provide you with information on the recipe and its parameters, which you can access from this page:

Perform Setup Step 3a

Step 4: Durables#

Warning

Only available if there are Durables required for the Material at the Step.

This step provides information about the current existing Durables. The required Durables for the Material at that Step are shown in the Durables step of the wizard. A green check mark is shown if the durable is configured correctly.

Info

Durables are configured in the Step Durables Context.

Perform Setup Step 4

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the Durables page will provide you with all the Durables information you need. The required Durables for the Material at that Step can be selected on this page, and a green check mark is shown if the durable is configured correctly:

Perform Setup Step 4a

Step 5: BOM#

Warning

Only available if there is a BOM required for the Material at the Step and only if the Material is Top Most.

This step provides information about the existing BOMs, displaying details such as Bin Code, Quantity, Consumable Feed, and more. Depending on the Assembly Type, BOM management options may vary, as explained below.

  • If the Assembly Type is Explicit or Explicit Add, the BOM is displayed in read-only mode and cannot be modified.

  • If the Assembly Type is Automatic At TrackIn, Automatic At Track Out, or Packing, you can or consumable Materials from the Resource Consumable Feeds. For the same Consumable Feed, all Materials must have the same Product, Step and Units.

  • If the BOM AssemblyType is Automatic At Track In or Automatic At Track Out, the system will display the Delta (Required versus Current) as the last column.

  • If there is a BOM of scope Materials associated to a Material that has characteristics, the system will only display BOM Products that also have the same characteristics defined for the selected Material.

Info

BOMs are configured in the Step BOM Context.

Perform Setup Step 5

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the BOM page is called Consumables in this context. It will allow you direct access to the BOM, provide information on the Products and Materials being used and their quantities:

Perform Setup Step 5a

Step 6: Instruments#

The system displays all the Parameters to be measured, showing which ones have at least one available instrument and which ones do not. A list of all attached instruments to the Resource is also displayed.

Step 7: Data Collection#

Warning

Only available if there is a Data Collection associated with the current Material Context.

This step is used to collect data from a pre-defined Data Collection. The Data Collection is always Immediate in this operation and thus, it must be entirely filled out. A Data Collection may be configured to send data to SPC, in which case one or more SPC Charts will appear at the end of the operation.

Additionally, if the LinkageStatus with the Setup Checklist is Total, the Data Collection instance can be fully completed within the Checklist context. As a result, the Data Collection tab will no longer appear separately in the cockpit, avoiding redundancy.

Info

Data Collections are configured in the Step Data Collection Context.

Perform Setup Step 6

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the Data Collection page will allow you to enter Sample readings at your own pace. The Data Collection is always Long Running when the Setup Mode is different from Not Required. This means you can keep the page open and use the Save button on the top ribbon every time you make changes, hence you do not need to enter readings all in one go:

Perform Setup Step 6a

Step 8: Checklist#

Warning

Only available if there is a Checklist associated with the current Material Context.

This screen is used to complete a pre-defined Checklist associated with the Perform Setup operation. The Checklist is Immediate and it must be filled out completely. For more information, see Perform Checklist Instance.

Info

Checklists are configured in the Step Checklist Context.

Perform Setup Step 7

If the Setup Mode is different from Not Required (see preconditions), the Execution Mode of the Checklist is always Long Running. This allows you to move away from the page and come back to it as you need to. Therefore, you do not need to execute the Checklist all in one go:
