Add a production program using Product Configurator

If your environment uses Product Configurator variants, you can create a production program for those variants.

Saved variant rules (SVRs) are defined in the configurator context in Manufacturing Process Planner or Product Configurator. As you define the production program, you can review and add existing SVRs to your production program.

Note:

Before you begin, verify that:

  • Your Teamcenter administrator has configured your environment to use Product Configurator.

  • The work package you plan to use contains a configurator context.

  1. Open the work package.

  2. Click Create Production Program.

  3. Type a name and click Create.

  4. Click Generate all product variants from the configurator context.

    Note:

    For each SVR, a product variant is created with a default rate of one. You can modify the default rate if needed.

  5. (Optional) Double-click the production rate for a product variant and type a new value.

    Production rates automatically update as you set them.

  6. (Optional) To remove a product variant, select the product variant and click Delete.

Next, you can view and balance data by product variant.
