Setting Up Equipment Dimensions

This chapter covers the following topics:

Overview of Equipment Dimension

You can build multiple hierarchies for equipment, and these can be rolled up using different hierarchies for reporting. Manufacturing Operations Center provides four hierarchies, as described in this table:

Equipment Dimension Component Design Component Scope
Equipment Hierarchy Resource Group Hierarchy Hierarchy Relationship: Seeded
Back-end Data: EBS or Microsoft Excel template provided.
Equipment Hierarchy Department Hierarchy Hierarchy Relationship: Seeded
Back-end Data: EBS or Microsoft Excel template provided.
Equipment Hierarchy Equipment Hierarchy 01 & 02 Hierarchy Relationship: Seeded
Back-end Data: Microsoft Excel template provided.

Equipment Hierarchy dimension supports 10 levels. Four hierarchies are pre-seeded. Equipment hierarchy is divided into two parts:

Note: You must collect equipment from the source system in which it is defined.

Equipment Hierarchy Setup Process

Complete the following steps for the equipment hierarchy setup process:

  1. Define hierarchy master and level lookups

  2. Load equipment

  3. Load equipment entities

  4. Load resources

  5. Load equipment hierarchy

Hierarchy Master and Level Lookup Definition

You can load seed data for the metadata.

Load Equipment

Equipment is loaded into Manufacturing Operations Center through a Microsoft Excel template.

  1. Update MTH_EQUIP_MASTER.csv

  2. Load the equipment by running the MTH_EQUIP_XS_ALL_MAP mappings in the MTH Utilities project.

Microsoft Excel Template: Equipment Master

The Equipment Master table is as follows:

Equipment Code Source Org Code Entity Name Entity Type System Code Fixed Asset Value Entity Description
MIXER1 MTH MIXER1 EQUIPMENT SCMC2MQ0   Equipment
BLOWER1 MTH BLOWER1 EQUIPMENT SCMC2MQ0   Equipment

All date columns are in the format of MM/DD/YYYY.

Load Equipment Entities

Equipment hierarchy entities such as Resource Group, Department, Organization, Line, Cell, and any entity other than Resources are loaded into MOC. Equipment entities can be loaded from EBS or Microsoft Excel.

To load equipment entities from EBS, run one of the following process flows:

To load equipment entities from Microsoft Excel:

  1. Update the MTH_ENTITY_MASTER.csv

  2. Run the MTH_EQUIP_ENT_XS_ALL_MAP process flow.

  3. Load the equipment entities into MOC staging tables by running one of the following process flows:

    • MTH_EQUIP_ENT_EXT_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_EQUIP_ENT_EXT_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

Microsoft Excel Template: Entity Master

The Entity Master table is as follows:

Entity pk Entity Name Entity Type System Code
LINE1 LINE1 LINE -1
LINE2 LINE2 LINE -1
LINE3 LINE3 LINE -1
AREA1 AREA1 AREA -1
AREA2 AREA2 AREA -1
AREA3 AREA3 AREA -1
SITE1 SITE1 SITE -1
SITE2 SITE2 SITE -1
SITE3 SITE3 SITE -1

Load Resources

Load resources either from the Microsoft Excel utility or from EBS. To load resources from EBS:

  1. Run one of the following processes:

    • MTH_RES_HRCHY_EBS_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_RES_HRCHY_EBS_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

  2. Correct errors using SQL Developer or Oracle APEX. All errors in MTH_RESOURCES_ERR must be fixed and the reprocess ready flag set to Y.

    Rows that are ready for reprocessing will be picked up in the next incremental run.

To load resources from Microsoft Excel:

  1. Update MTH_RESOURCES.csv.

  2. Run the MTH_RESOURCE_XS_ALL_MAP mappings.

  3. Run one of the following processes:

    • MTH_RES_DIM_EXT_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_RES_DIM_EXT_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

  4. Correct errors using SQL Developer or Oracle APEX. All errors in MTH_RESOURCES_ERR must be fixed and the reprocess ready flag set to Y.

    Rows that are ready for reprocessing will be picked up in the next incremental run.

Microsoft Excel Template: Resource Master

The Resource Master table is as follows:

Resource Code Resource Type UOM Capacity Units Available 24 Hour Flag Plant Code System Code Disable Date Resource Name
500-1-M1 1 Ea 10   PLANT1 SCMC2MQ0 21/09/2006 Machine1
5269-2772-M1 1 Ea 11   PLANT1 SCMC2MQ0   Machine2
500-1-M2 1 Ea 12   PLANT1 SCMC2MQ0   Machine3
5269-2772-M2 1 Ea 13   PLANT1 SCMC2MQ0   Machine4

Load Equipment Hierarchy

Equipment hierarchies can be loaded from the Microsoft Excel utility or from EBS. To load resources from EBS:

  1. Run one of the following processes:

    • MTH_EQUIP_HRCHY_EBS_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_EQUIP_HRCHY_EBS_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

  2. Correct errors using SQL Developer or Oracle APEX. All errors in MTH_EQUIP_ERR must be fixed and the reprocess ready flag set to Y.

    Rows that are ready for reprocessing will be picked up in the next incremental run.

  3. For OBIEE reporting, run one of the following denorm process flows:

    • MTH_EQUIP_FD_EBS_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_EQUIP_FD_EBS_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

To load resources from Microsoft Excel:

  1. Update MTH_EQUIP_HRCHY_DEF.csv.

  2. Run the MTH_EQUIP_HRCHY_XS_ALL_MAP mappings.

  3. Run one of the following processes:

    • MTH_EQUIP_HRCHY_EXT_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_EQUIP_HRCHY_EXT_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

  4. Correct errors using SQL Developer or Oracle APEX. All errors in MTH_EQUIP_HIERARCHY_ERR must be fixed and the reprocess ready flag set to Y.

    Rows that are ready for reprocessing will be picked up in the next incremental run.

  5. For OBIEE reporting, run one of the following denorm process flows:

    • MTH_EQUIP_FD_EXT_INIT_PF for an initial data collection

    • MTH_EQUIP_FD_EXT_INCR_PF for an incremental data collection

Important: In the initial denorm setup, you must first run the MTH_EQUIP_FD_EXT_INIT_PF process flow.

Overview of Entity Hierarchy

Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center enables you to define equipment, entities, and also build the entity hierarchies. Site is an entity and it can have many child entities as follows:

Seeded entity hierarchies like, Department Hierarchy, Facility Hierarchy, Resource Group Hierarchy, Equipment Hierarchy 01 and Equipment Hierarchy 02 are provided. You can create entity hierarchies for both production and non-production facilities. You can build a hierarchy using Active and Inactive sites, entities, resources, and equipments, and for data contextualization, the entities must be Active.

There are no separate hierarchies for production and non-production facilities. For example, a production entity can hold child entities that can be either Production or Non-Production type.

Each Hierarchy supports a maximum of 10 levels. A Child entity can be linked to only one Parent entity. By default, an unassigned entity rolls up to the unassigned parent entity.

The following diagram depicts the process flow for setting up entity hierarchies and describes that before you can set up an Entity Hierarchy, you must set up Sites, Equipments, Resources, and Entities:

Using the Entity Hierarchy pages you can set up entity hierarchies in the following sequence:

You must create a balanced entity hierarchy to be able to view in OBIEE. A balanced hierarchy implies that each level within the hierarchy includes logical relationships between each entity. An unbalanced hierarchy lacks relationship entities for each level within the hierarchy, or the relationships are illogical.

The following example and diagrams describe how you can balance an unbalanced hierarchy using the Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center application:

Consider a site named MOC HQ with two buildings 100 and 200. Building 100 has two floors 1 and 2 and Building 200 has one floor, Floor 3. Floor 1 has floor section A with a lighting equipment 1, and floor section B. Floor 2 has no floor sections but has lighting equipment 2. Building 200 has air- conditioning equipment as the lowest hierarchy level. The equipment Fountain is linked to MOC HQ. The diagram Unbalanced Entity Hierarchy is a graphical representation of MOC HQ hierarchy and shows how the present hierarchy is Unbalanced.

In this example, the following relationships cause imbalance in the hierarchy:

Using the Entity Hierarchy pages of the Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center application you can balance the MOC HQ hierarchy by adding default entities at the relevant levels in the hierarchy:

The Balanced Entity Hierarchy diagram depicts the new MOC HQ hierarchy after balancing:

After you build a hierarchy you cannot:

You can update only the current version of a hierarchy. You can move entities from one entity hierarchy to another.
