In this step you define the structure and content of individual overview variants. You assign predefined columns to the overview variants.

You define an overview variant by specifying the following:

  • which columns are to appear in the overview variant
  • position of the columns in the overview variant

    In doing this, you determine the column of the overview variant in which a predefined column is to appear.

  • column heading
  • column width
  • requirements type, if necessary

    If you want to compare target requirements and remaining requirements, you can specify whether target requirements or remaining requirements are shown for each overview variant column.

    If you do not specify, the target requirements or remaining requirements are displayed according to the default setting.

  • whether the selection values are to appear in the overview heading

    You can specify whether the selection values of a set are to appear in the heading for each column.

    For example, if you assign requirements for order 4711 to a column, you can write this selection value as the heading above the column.

    A set is assigned to the column which has a value of "4711" for field order number. The value of set "4711" is the selection value.

An overview variant can have any number of columns. The width of your screen or printer may determine the number of columns you choose.

Example

You want to create an overview variant that compares the requirements of capacity category "labor" with the requirements of capacity category "machine".

You must define the overview variant as follows:

Column  Description     Heading       Width      Reqmts sel.values
-----------------------------------------------------------------
  1         SP1          Reqmts        10                 1
  2         SP2          Reqmts        10                 1

  • Column and width

    The requirements for the predefined column SP1 appear in column 1. The column width is 10 characters.

    The requirements for the predefined column SP2 appear in column 2. The column width is also 10 characters.

  • Column description

    Column SP1 is defined so that the requirements for capacity category "machine" is calculated, which means with reference to a set that assigns the value "001" to the field "capacity category".

    The same applies to column SP2.

  • Heading

    The headings for the columns are "requirements 001" or "requirements 002".

    You specified the text "requirements" as the heading in the overview variant definition.

  • Requirements of selection values

    The text "001" or "002" is copied as the selection value from the set for column SP1 or SP2 if the selection values are to be displayed (indicator "1").

Note

You can only display requirements in a variable overview which you have previously defined in selection during capacity leveling. This means, you can only evaluate what corresponds to the selection criteria on the selection list. Therefore, if you have selected work center "R0815" and only this work center is displayed on the selection list, you cannot display any requirements for work center "R0888" on the variable overview.

Prerequisites

You must have completed the step "Define columns".

Actions

  1. Enter a description for the overview variants.
  2. Define the overview variant.
