Define Segments (Segments Tab)

Use the Segments tab to define, edit, and delete segments in your process model. Segment names must be unique. If you attempt to enter a duplicate segment name, a message box states that the segment already exists. If you attempt to delete a segment that is assigned to a connection, a warning message appears. Deleting segments can affect other portions of your process model.

To activate the Segments tab

• On the Process Model Editor dialog box, click the Segments tab. The Segments tab becomes active. All the segments that have been defined for the process model appear in the Segments list.

  

To add or edit a segment name

1. On the Segment tab, type the Name (16 characters maximum) and optional Description (120 characters maximum).

2. Click Add to include the segment in the process model or click Change if you are editing an existing Name or Description.

For more information on assigning segments to connections, see 'Assigning Segments to Connections' in Defining Materials and Product Paths (Connections Tab) section.
