Creating Equipment Contextualization Information

Contextualization is the ability to take highly granular tag data collected from shop floor transactions and convert it into meaningful business data for analyzing. The contextualization rules engine enables users with various levels of sophistication on the shop floor to add the business context to the data tags. There are two tag types used:

• Business Context Tags–tags that provide work order, operation, product, and equipment details.

• Data Tags–tags that provide value of output quantity, scrap quantity, rework quantity, reject quantity, completed quantity, equipment status, and attribute tags.

The Equipment Contextualization page is used to associate a contextualization method for equipment and to define the mandatory or optional context for the business related to that equipment. The following three methods are used to add the business context:

Tag Based Contextualization

Business context such as work order, operation, and item is derived from the tags that are configured in the PLC for that equipment from the shop floor. The business context tags and the data tags are received into MOC with using the same group identifier for this type of contextualization.

Schedule Based Contextualization

Business context is derived from the equipment production schedule. If this contextualization method is selected, MOC uses the data tags from the equipment to select business context of:

• Work order and operation from the equipment production schedule

• Product from production material produced

• Equipment based on the setup of the tag to equipment association is done

• Shift based on the reading time

Manual Contextualization

Context is determined through data entered manually and is not derived from the Manufacturing Operations Center hub. The Manual Contextualization page on the Tag Data Workbench under the User role enables you to manually enter and edit context for all active tags that have not been summarized in the Equipment Summary tables.

To select equipment for contextualization

1. Navigate to the Equipment Contextualization Setup page.

2. Select a value in the Plant field.

3. In the Equipment field, select a specific record and then select Go. You can also leave the field null and select Go to display all the equipment records for the plant.

   The results table displays all the equipment associated to this plant record.

   

4. To edit equipment contextualization values, select equipment records and select a Contextualization Method. Choices are:

   • Tag Based—context is determined through tag readings of the equipment.

   • Schedule Based—context is determined through schedule data in the Equipment Production Schedules table.

   • Manual—context is determined through data entered manually.

5. In the Workorder field, indicate whether a business context is Mandatory or Optional for the selected equipment.

   Workorder context is determined from either the tag or the equipment production schedule.

6. In the Workorder Segment field, indicate whether a business context is Mandatory or Optional for the selected equipment.

7. In the Item field, indicate whether a business context is Mandatory or Optional for the selected equipment.

8. Save your work.

To change multiple records using the same contextulization rule

1. Select equipment records to create similar contextualization rules.

2. Select Enter Context in Batch to display the Batch Equipment Contextualization Update page.

   

3. Select the appropriate values in the following fields for the batch update:

   • Contextualization Method

   • Workorder

   • Workorder Segment

   • Item

4. Select Enter in Batch to return to the Equipment Contextualization Setup page.

Setting Up Extensible Attributes for MOC Entities

Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center supports an extensible attributes framework to capture specific attributes for manufacturing entities. The extensible attributes framework helps in setting up and capturing parameters that are unique for your business environment, plant, equipment, items, work orders, batch operations and user-defined entities. The extensible attributes setup consists of the following steps:

• Setting up profile options for item and equipment entity classifications

• Defining classifications for Others entity type

• Creating attribute groups

• Creating attributes

• Associating attribute groups to classifications

• Creating attribute pages

Entities and Classifications

Shop floor or manufacturing entities are business objects in Oracle Applications with unique characteristics and processes. MOC supports item, equipment, work order, batch operation, and miscellaneous custom entities.

Entities are grouped into classification to define the type of attributes they can monitor. For example, boiler equipment in the shop floor are classified into one group which is the resource Boiler. You can define this classification using attribute metadata such as Pressure, Temperature, and so forth. Each MOC entity type page contains two tabbed regions: Classifications and Attributes. Entity pages open with all the classification values displaying in the search results table region. You can filter this list.

Classifications are defined based on the hierarchy of the entities. The hierarchy level is determined by the information in the following table:

Entity	Classification Source Creation	Values
Item:	Profile Option–MTH:Item Classification for Extensible Attributes	Hierarchy Name. The level is always Level 9 for the hierarchy selected.
Equipment:	Profile Option–MTH:Equipment Classification for Extensible Attributes	Hierarchy Levels.
Work Order:	Work order type	Discrete or Process Manufacturing work order types only.
Other:.	No classification	N/A
Batch Operations	Work order	Work Order Number

Attributes and Attribute Groups

Attribute groups are a grouping of similar attributes used to monitor an entity. For example, Specifications is a seeded attribute group for the Equipment entity containing the attributes Parameter, Upper Control Limit, and Lower Control Limit. Oracle Product Information Management functionality is used for attribute creation.

Similar attributes can be categorized in an attribute group, such as a collection of items similar in type or function. You can:

• Group attributes based on business functions

• Define and use an unlimited number of attribute groups

• Create attribute pages for ease of viewing attributes

Attribute Pages

An attribute page is a view used to display, create, and edit different attributes from the various attribute group categories. An attribute page is a way of categorizing attribute groups and displaying them separately in these categories based on different functional areas. You can create attribute pages for each item, equipment, work order, batch operation, user-defined entity and other values of your entities—and assign corresponding attribute groups to these pages.

Refer to the Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center Implementation Guide for more information.
