Using online help

This activity allows you to setup action messages for a specific resource/resource type. You can set the action messages either at plant or the business unit level. The system retrieves the corresponding action messages defined for that resource at the plant or business unit level. You can also select the type of resource for which you need the action messages to be displayed. You can specify the type of resource and the system populates all the related action messages onto the multiline.

The parameters are set for the action messages and the parameter value can be specified based on each parameter and action message defined. Once the value is specified, you can deploy the messages for the resource/resource type. A single action message can have more than one parameter defined and when this action message is deployed, the system displays a success message for the entire set of the action message and not for each individual message. The system updates the login ID of the user and the system date as a part of creation and modification details.

  • Resource under utilized by specified utilization % – indicates resources under utilized by specified percentage

 
  • Resource under utilized by specified No of Days – indicates resources under utilized within specified horizon

 
  • Resource overload by specified overload % – indicates resources over loaded by specified percentage

 
  • Resource overload by specified No of Days – indicates resources over loaded within specified horizon

 
  • Resource underload by specified underload % – indicates resources under loaded by specified percentage

If Deploy field is set as "Yes", then all “No of Days” parameter for action message values should be greater than or equal to zero, all “Status” parameter values should be “E”, “F” or “G”, all “Qty” parameter values should be greater than or equal to zero, all data modeling action messages will not have any values.

The system saves all action messages along with parameters and values for the Business Unit and the Plant based on action message setup level parameter. Action message horizon and all messages with validated values are also saved by the system.
