This section describes which process instruction characteristics you have to assign when defining process instruction categories of type sequence definition for SAP PI sheets.

In a sequence definition, you specify the number of the phase you must have completed processing before you can process the phase containing the sequence definition.

Assign the following characteristics:

Characteristic        Meaning        Allowed values

PPPI_PREDECESSOR        number of the phase        number of a phase of

        to be processed first        the respective order

        (predecessor phase)

The characteristic PPPI_PREDECESSOR can only be used once in a sequence definition. If there are several predecessors of a phase, you have to specify a sequence definition for each predecessor.

Requirements

Define characteristics for process instructions

Standard settings

The standard R/3 System contains an example of a sequence definition.

Activities

  1. Select the process instruction of type "sequence definition" to which you want to assign characteristics.
  2. Go to screen Characteristics/instruct. cat..
  3. To assign new characteristics, choose New entries.
  4. Enter the sort number and the characteristic name PPPI_PREDECESSOR.
  5. Save the settings.

Further notes

When generating process instructions with the scope of generation 05 (for all predecessors), the value of the characteristic PPPI_PREDECESSOR is automatically assigned. The number of the preceding phase is determined from the relationships defined in the order.
