In order to create predecessor-successor-process, various processing scenarios must be set-up and assigned.
A processing scenario is always required in the predecessor material as trigger for the process. Also required is a processing scenario for the successor material, serving as receiver and controlling the creation process of the successor material.
Type (*) | Behavior |
|---|---|
Create successor | If this processing scenarios is activated by a status change, the successor status is started, e.g. a successor material is created to the current material. |
Create as successor, W/O Obj | Change mode in the successor material, only document objects are created initially. |
Create as successor, WITH Obj | Document objects if successor material are created with template. The document objects of the predecessor material is used (if suitable objects in the relevant data packages available. |
(*) = ProConfiguration internal type of processing scenario in customizing setting Activities processing scenarios. The process of the successor material is always controlled by the cross plant material status.
