In this step, you define the parameters required to

  • maintain standard value keys
  • define formulas (for example, for scheduling, costing or calculating standard values with CAPP)

Parameters are identified by parameter IDs.

The parameter ID specifies

  • what meaning and what keyword are assigned to a parameter
  • what dimension a parameter has
  • the name used to address a parameter in a formula

You distinguish between parameters by their origin. You can maintain the following origins for a parameter in Customizing:

  • Standard value: The parameter that goes in a formula is assigned a standard value by means of a standard value key.
  • Formula constant in the work center: The parameter is assigned a fixed value in the work center which then goes in the formula.
  • General operation value: The parameter is assigned a field directly from the general operation data. The value of this field goes directly into the formula. Typical fields include:
    • lot size
    • base quantity
    • number of splits (partial lots)
    • number of employees
  • User field from operation: The parameter is assigned a user- specified data field for the operation. The value of this field goes in the formula.
  • Value from PRT assignment: The parameter is assigned a field within PRT assignment. The value of this field goes into the formula. This may involve both the quantity and the usage value of the PRT.

    This parameter can only be used for formulas within PRT management.

  • PRT constants: The parameter is assigned a fixed value in the PRT master record which then goes into the formula.

    This parameter can only be used for formulas within PRT management.

Note

The meaning of the fields is defined by the key words.

Recommendation

You should choose short terms that are easy to remember if you would like to use the parameters in a formula definition at a later time.

Actions

Define the parameters.
