Windchill 13.0.2.0

User Interface Location: Process Plan Browser

Using a generic process plan that is associated with a generic mBOM, you can create a generated process plan. For each variant mBOM of the generic mBOM, you can create multiple generated process plans. This approach of reusing the existing structures for generating new structures, not only provides an efficient way of managing process plans, but also improves the productivity and reduces the overall cost of production.

The actions Generate Process Plans and Synchronize Process Plans are available in the Process Plan Browser to create and update the generated process plan structure.

You can configure preferences, define part tags, or specify rules (in a rules file) to create and update a generated process plan structure as per your requirement.
