Define Execution Logic Structure Template
Explanation
This activity is used to adjust the generated execution
logic structure (ELS) template to set up the correct logic sequence, for
instance, by adding predecessor information.
Once the grouping elements for supporting sequencing is
decided, the Complete Grouping Criteria option should be executed.
When this is done, basic data for the selected grouping elements will be
retrieved and the ELS template generated. Since the predecessor relationships
cannot be generated automatically you will need to manually set up the
predecessor information. From the generated information in the table of the
ELS Sequencing tab, by using the Define Predecessors and
Successors menu option or by using the functionality in the Gantt you can
set up an execution logic to be the generic sequence for performing work during
a maintenance visit. Note: When changes are made in the Gantt, the data in the
table will be updated automatically and vice versa. Further, it is also possible to create new
records in the ELS Sequencing tab if a grouping node requires more
than one predecessor definition. Once the visit has an ELS associated, all
task cards and subtasks assigned to the various event codes of the maintenance
visit will be assigned automatically to the relevant ELS nodes within
the structure.
Prerequisites
- Execution logic grouping criteria must be defined.
- The grouping ID must be in the Under
Preparation status.
System Effects
- The ELS template will be defined with predecessor
relationships.
- If sorting is defined for the grouping criteria on
the template, the relevant ELS nodes and grouping nodes in the template will be sequenced
accordingly.
- The ELS template will be used when creating ELSs
(Execution Logic Structures) and ELOs (Execution Logic Orders).

Procedure
Using the ELS Sequencing tab:
- Open the Define Execution Logic Structure
Template window and query (F3) for the necessary grouping ID.
- Click the ELS Sequencing tab.
- Identify the necessary grouping node for which
predecessor information is to be entered.
- In the Predecessor field, enter the
predecessor node ID. Use the List of Values to select a valid value.
- Save the information (F12).
Using the Gantt chart:
- Open the Define Execution Logic Structure
Template window and query (F3) for the necessary grouping ID.
- Click the Gantt tab.
- Right-click on the chart, and then click Create Dependencies Mode.
- To define predecessor relationships, draw
dependencies between the relevant grouping nodes.
Using the Define Predecessors and Successors
dialog box:
- Open the Define Execution Logic Structure
Template window and query (F3) for the necessary grouping ID.
- Click the ELS Sequencing tab or the
ELS Nodes tab.
- Select the node ID for which predecessor and
successor relationships are to be defined.
- Right-click and click Define Predecessors and
Successors. The Define Predecessors and Successors dialog
box opens.
- Select the Predecessor check box for the node ID(s) that is to be
a predecessor to your node ID.
- Select the Successor check box for the node ID(s) that is to be a
successor to your node ID.
- Click Apply to save your changes.
- If needed, select a different node from the
Node ID list in the header of the dialog box.
- Use steps 5 and 6 to enter predecessor and
successor relationships for this node ID.
- Click Apply to save your changes or click
Save and Close to save your changes and close the dialog box.
