Using BAdIs for Custom Valuation and Generation in XSteps
|
VN:F [1.9.22_1171] Rating: 5.0/5 (1 vote cast) |
When you use XSteps to define PI Sheets or Electronic Work Instructions the automatic valuation (e.g. material number) and the generation of elements (e.g. material component list) are important features. To provide even more flexibility new custom-defined valuation symbols or generation scopes can be included.
Today I have posted an article in SDN which provides a simple guide on how to set up the BAdIs needed for this.

PI Sheet: Productivity Tools
|
VN:F [1.9.22_1171] Rating: 4.6/5 (5 votes cast) |
PI Sheets in PP-PI offer a lot of functionality to streamline a manufacturing process in SAP ERP. During my time in consulting I realized that it is essential that project team members have a common understanding on what these PI Sheets look like and what they are suposed to do. In that time I have developped several tools to support this and I have now uploaded them to SDN. Read more »
