Exploring with User-Defined Explore

You can use the PPR User Defined Explore command to complete PPR contexts before opening them in an authoring tab. This command enables you to explore PPR objects with a predefined procedure related to the selected object type.

Before you begin: Start Manufacturing Context Builder with PPR content. For more information, see Start the App with PPR Content in the Spreadsheet.

Administration
  1. Select an object, then from the PPR Navigation section of the action bar, click PPR User Defined Explore .
    The User Defined Explore dialog box appears listing only the procedures compatible with the object type selected.
    Tips:
    • If the selected object type is specified for only one UDE procedure, then the command invokes the procedure directly on the selected object and explores the result.
    • If you click the PPR User Defined Explore command before selecting an object, all the procedures are listed. Select a procedure, then select an object of the corresponding type.
  2. Select a procedure.
  3. Click OK to validate.
    The retrieved PPR objects are added to the PPR content and complete it according to the procedure that you selected.
    Note: The PPR User Defined Explore command ignores all filters applied in Manufacturing Context Builder except Configuration filters.
