Sections usable

The check box indicates whether the user is allowed to create process sections in the elements of this element configuration.

Re-number sections during saving

If one of these functions is activated, sections are re-numbered during saving an element with sections.

Re-assign sections during saving

If one of these functions is activated, sections are re-assigned during saving an element with sections.

Parallelism usable

Parallelism is a line-by-line comparison of element times whereas those lines with small sums of time are ignored.

This option indicates if it is possible to use parallelism at the elements of this element configuration.

Additional factor

The additional factor defines a factor by which the individual rows of the structure are multiplied in the same way as QxF and is therefore included in the calculation of the total times.

By using additional factors, the user has the option of correcting the time value of certain elements when used in certain other elements in order to obtain the desired results.

If an additional factor is defined, it can be displayed in the element structure by activating the "Additional factor" column.

Use additional factor

To use an additional factor, it must be defined in an element configuration of the "Process element" type.
The function is only available if the structure behavior is "one-hand".

Work steps:

1.Open or create a new element configuration

2.Switch to the "Process element" tab

3.Click the "Use additional factor" checkbox

4.Enter the desired additional factor in the "Additional factor" field

If the "Additional factor" field is not filled in, the factor 1 is assumed by default. A decimal number with a maximum of 15 decimal places can be specified as an additional factor.

Degree of practice

Default setting for the degree of practice (practiced and unpracticed) when performing the analyzed activity. The degree of practice influences which motions may be carried out simultaneously according to the regulations. The generation wizard evaluates the entered degree of practice, in order to compare simultaneous motions.
