In Define General iPPE Customizing, you make one-off settings for Integrated Product and Process Engineering (iPPE). These settings should not be changed once the system is in operation.

You can make settings for the following areas:

  • General iPPE Customizing:

    The settings you make here concern the way iPPE cooperates with other systems and functions.

  • Define PVS Parameters:

    The settings you make here concern the maintenance of variants in the product variant structure.

    In the field Class Type Std Value, you can define whether the class type 300 is to be used as the standard value. If you enter a class type here, you cannot enter a class type in the iPPE Workbench when you create or edit iPPE objects; the system automatically proposes the class type 300.

  • Define Color Supplement Key:

    The settings you make here concern the maintenance of color nodes and color variants.

  • Define Start-Up Parameters:

    Start-up parameters control whether you can use a component variant with a change number and a future effectivity in an earlier phase of production. This is the case when a characteristic value defined in the classification system is also defined as an effectivity parameter in Engineering Change Management and is used in a change number.

  • Effectivity Parameter Description:

    The settings you make here control that the effectivity parameters used for effectivity type PVSECM in Engineering Change Management correspond to those used for the configuration simulation in the iPPE Workbench. The effectivity type PVSECM is provided as standard.

  • Events and Change Documents:

    The settings you make here control whether the corresponding functions are active or inactive.

Standard settings

The following settings are provided as standard:

  • The field Explosion Type for Component Variants has the value History by Valid-From Date.
  • The Class Use field has the value Class Differentiation.
  • The function Eval. Priority of Variants is active.
  • The field Color Offset has the value 15 and the Length of Color Supplement Key is 3.

Recommendation

Do not change the settings once the system is in operation.
