Calculate Eco-footprint for All Parts

Explanation

This activity is used to calculate the eco-footprint (emission) of substances for all parts that belong to a specific site. It is the effective date that controls which revision to base the calculations on, i.e. the revision valid for the entered Effective Date will be used for the calculation. When calculating the emission of substances for all parts, then only Struct Alt * and Rout Alt * are taken in to consideration.

Prerequisites

• Substance codes must have been defined.
• Emissions must have been defined for any of the following areas
  • Work center
  • Supplier for purchase part
  • Transport emissions (A supply chain matrix for supplier is also required)
  • Part specific emissions
  • Usage emissions
  • End of life emissions

System Effects

The eco-footprint is calculated for all parts of a specific site and the results are saved.
