General Options

Display product build-up at item selection
The product build-up appears according to the selected item or Functional Process excitation.

By default, the check box is selected.

Display product build-up at operation selection
The product build-up appears for the selected operation. Product build-up shows you the parts assigned to the item up to and including the operation you have selected.

By default, the check box is selected.

Display additional products
The products with no scope links appear in the PPR context as additional products. In the Product BuildUp Options panel, the additional category is displayed.

By default, the check box is not selected.

Ignore scoped products for additional products
Only additional products appear in the PPR context. Products with scope items do not appear.

By default, the check box is not selected.

Give priority on children Items over the scoped product
The 3D of an Item is no longer the scoped product, in case this Item has children Items for which a 3D can be retrieved.

By default, the check box is not selected.

Compute Next and Previous Step Using

The next or previous step can be either a system or an operation. Select an option:

  • Time constraints: The next or previous step becomes the next or previous system or operation with respect to the time constraints.
  • Product flow constraints: The next or previous step becomes the next or previous system or operation with respect to the product flow constraints.

By default, the Product flow constraints option is selected.

Item Display Option

Select one of the following options:

Show implemented products
The product build-up displays the products implemented by the selected item.
Show items
The product build-up displays the selected item.

By default, the Show items option is selected.

Tip: These options apply to the main viewer, for example when the Build Up Review Mode is active.

Similar options exist for the 3D View and 3D View List panels. For more information, see the Common Services for Manufacturing Simulation Apps User's Guide.

Operation Display Option

Select one of the following options:

Show implemented items
The product build-up displays the items implemented by the selected operation.
Show implemented products
The product build-up displays the products implemented by the selected operation.

By default, the Show implemented products option is selected.

Tip: These options apply to the main viewer, for example when the Build Up Review Mode is active.

Similar options exist for the 3D View and 3D View List panels. For more information, see the Common Services for Manufacturing Simulation Apps User's Guide.

Display Mode

Select an option:

  • Design product: The 3D visualization consists of the products implemented by the item (if any). Otherwise, the geometry retrieved by the predecessors appears.
  • Display resulting product in build-up: The 3D visualization consists of the resulting product on the item (if any). Otherwise, it consists of the products implemented by the item (if any). The geometry retrieved by the predecessors appears.

By default, the Display resulting product in build-up option is selected.

Assigned Resources Display

Display Implemented Resources
Implemented resources appear in assigned resources.

By default, the check box is selected.

Display Capable Resources
Capable resources appear in assigned resources.
the check box is not selected.
