WBS Definition - Intergraph Smart Materials - 10.2 - Training - Hexagon

Purpose

This section explains how to define the WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) in the BOM module of Smart Materials Web. This WBS is needed to gather BOM data.

Exercise

1. Open the Maintain BOM screen from Home > Bill of Materials, and then click on Add Root Node button.

   

   The software opens a new window to define the root node.

2. Click the button, and software automatically inserts DISC into the Node Type field.

   Enter PIPING in the Node Name field and Piping in the Short Desc and Description fields.

3. Click the button to close the window. To create the new WBS root node, select the new node PIPING in the node tree on the left side and select Add Child Node.

   

   The software opens a new window to define the child node under the PIPING root node.

4. Click the button, and software automatically inserts UNIT into the Node Type field.

   Enter A100 in the Name field and A100 in the Short Desc and Description fields.

   

5. Click the button to close the window. To create the new WBS node, select the new node A100 in the node tree on the left and select Add Child Node.

   The software opens a new window to define a child node under the A100 node.

6. Click the button, and software automatically inserts LINE into the Node Type field.

   Enter NF-12004 in the Node Name field and NF-12004 in the Short Desc and Description fields.

   

7. Click the button to close the window. To create the new WBS node, click on the new node NF-12004 in the node tree on the left and select Add Child Node.

   The software opens a new window to define a child node under the NF-12004 node.

8. Click the button, and software automatically inserts SHEET into the Node Type field.

   Enter 01 in the Name field and Sheet 01 in the Short Desc and Description fields.

   

9. Click the button to close the window. To create the new WBS node, add further nodes as described, to get a node structure as displayed in the following image.
