Use this activity to define a dependent setup matrix for a work center and characteristic code. The matrix is used by IFS/Constraint Based Scheduling (CBS).
This activity requires the existence of a discrete characteristic code and its values.
The site needs to be a constraint based scheduling site. This is set up in Shop Order Scheduling Basic Data window.
The system creates a dependent setup matrix for the work center and characteristic code. The from/to relationships for the dependent setup matrix are built from the characteristic code values. The relationships with the same from/to values are assigned a setup time of zero hours. The relationships with different from/to values are assigned a setup time equal to the default setup time hours.
