Configure Source properties

SourceEquipment

This property is enabled if the MovementDirection property is Output or Internal. It specifies the equipment that supplies the material for the material movement.

Click Browse (...) to open the selection dialog box, and then choose the source equipment that you require.

Any relevant equipment

SourceEquipmentWithChildren

This property specifies whether the children of the source equipment can be included in the material movement item. This property is not relevant for automatic movements.

True, False

SourceLotBehaviorExpression

This property is enabled if the Movement Direction is Internal or Output. It specifies the expression that defines how AVEVA™ Production Management gnerates the lot behavior that overrides the SourceEquipment lot behavior.

Click Browse (...) to open the Expression Editor, and then build the expression.

This is an historical expression that AVEVA™ Production Management valuates when the material movement is triggered. If the expression generates an invalid value, then the default behavior is the parent equipment lot behavior.

An expression that returns any other value would be invalid.

Any valid expression. The valid values are Mixed, Selective, LIFO, FIFO, or 0,1,2,3.

• 0 = Mixed

• 1 = Selective

• 2 = LIFO

• 3 = FIFO

SourceDebtLotGenerator

This property is enabled if the SourceEquipment property references an equipment with AllowNegativeBalance set to True AND if the LotBehaviour is FIFO, LIFO or WeightedAverage.

It specifies the LotGenerator item that provides the naming convention for lots if the material balance in the source lot is insufficient for the movement (creates a negative balance).

Click Browse (...) to open the Selection dialog box, and then choose the LotGenerator item that you require. This provides the naming structure for negative lots.

Blank

SourceLotGroupExpression

This property is enabled if the SourceEquipment property references an equipment with LIFO, FIFO, Selective, or WeightedAverage lot behavior.

It specifies the expression that defines how AVEVA™ Production Management generates the source lot group.

Click Browse (...) to open the Expression Editor, and then build the expression. This is an historical expression that AVEVA™ Production Management valuates when the material movement is triggered.

Any valid expression

SourceMaterialClassExpression

The expression that defines how AVEVA™ Production Management defines the source material class for this movement. If a material class is not required, leave this property blank.

Otherwise, click Browse (...) to open the Expression Editor, and then build the expression. The expression must result in a defined material class.

This is an historical expression that AVEVA™ Production Management valuates when the material movement is triggered.

Any valid expression

SourceMaterialsExpression

This property specifies the expression for the material to move from the source. The expression can include one or more materials but should result in one material.

Click Browse (...) to open the Expression editor, and enter an expression for the material to move from the source.

Any valid expression

SourceQuantityExpression

Specifies the expression that defines how AVEVA™ Production Management determines the source quantity of material for the material movement.

Click Browse (...) to open the Expression Editor, and then build the expression. The expression must result in a single sample.

This is a historical expression that AVEVA™ Production Management evaluates when the material movement is triggered.

Any valid C# mathematics or logic operation

SourceQuantityMode

The method to retrieve the quantity of source material.

Destination quantity modes:

• Expression - Choose this mode to build an expression that retrieves the quantity of destination material.

• UseAvailableQuantity - Use currently available quantity of source material.

Expression, UseAvailableQuantity
