Form finding for Material

The form determination for material allows the finding of forms (CVE forms), for display, change and creation of material objects, based on the current data of the object. Some relevant criteria for the form finding are directly available. Further criteria can be added via the formula editor. The formula editor always contains the data from the higher-level objects. For example, the data of the plant and the client are also available at the storage location level.

The widgets for mask based display / change of material data are only available with appropriate license (e.g. ProMaterial)

Form finding is only carried out at certain times (for example: change of object, refresh, start/exit change). The form is not changed while the object is being changed.

The following forms are delivered as standard:
