Create a New Plan Item

Click Plan in the tree and click Add. A new plan-item is created. For each plan-item you can have option of modifying or adding following values:

Plan Item Tab

In the Plan Item tab you can associate a product and action to the new plan item.

When you click inside the Product ID text box or the icon beside it', you is given list of all the products available in the Order Management Server repository.

You can browse through the entire list of products by using pagination or can directly search for the desired product by keying in the product ID in the search box. This search is case sensitive. When you get the desired product in the list, select the product and click the OK button. The selected product is displayed in the Product ID text box and all the Action or Owner associated to the selected product is fetched in the Action drop-down box.

If you click on the cancel button in the Product ID popup window, no product is selected. Either the Product ID text box is displayed blank or the earlier product is retained in the text box.

As you associate the correct action or owner to the newly created plan-item, Process Info tab and the Sections tab is populated for the plan item.

Note: If the originally submitted order consists of an Affinity Plan Item, the products is displayed comma separated in Product Textbox. If the user modifies the product by clicking on the textbox or the icon beside it, the user is not able to revert and get back the affinity products through Manual Order Plan Development.

Custom Headers Tab

When the user creates a new plan item, the default or system defined custom headers (User Defined Fields) are already created for the user and you are not allowed to modify these. Values for these User Defined Fields are populated as per the selections in different tabs of the plan item.

You can add, modify and delete non system defined User Defined Fields.

Order Line Tab

Initially for the newly created plan item, no order line is associated to the plan-item by default. When you select the Order Line tab, you get two options Add and Delete.

For the newly created plan item you can associate at least one order line. When you click Add a new row is created with two drop-down boxes: Order Line and EOL.

Order Line drop-down box contains all the order line numbers in an order. You can select one of the order lines to associate with the new plan item.

EOL (End Of Line) drop-down box contains the Boolean value to identify if the order line associated to the plan item is EOL. A single plan item can be associated to more than one order lines.

Process Info Tab and Sections Tab

Both these tabs is populated based on your inputs in the Plan Item tab.
