Define a Standard Operation

Navigation:

Supply Chain Execution-->Work Definition-->Manage Standard Operations




2. Defining Item Structure

For the test case, a test assembly FB_SA_ITEM1 is considered.  From Item Details, Switch to Structures tab and from Actions, Click on Create Automatic Work Definition.


Automatic Work Definition is created as shown below.
