- Initiating the request
The process is capable of initiating two types of request:
- New Product Industrialization (NPDI):
- By default the system displays the NPDI option selected.
- User needs to enter all the details, to enable the Submit button.
- All the mandatory fields are marked with "*" and attachments with a message in red.
- As soon as the user chooses the 'Plant', the system will auto-populate the Plant SAP Code and its Region.
- The attachment option (Paper-Clip) icon will remain disabled until the user selects any attachment type from the dropdown.
- As soon as a user enters Plant, Market, Product Family he will get an option to choose the Project team.
- Technology Transfer (TT):
- User needs to enter all the details, to enable the Submit button.
- All the mandatory fields are marked with "*" and attachments with a message in red.
- As soon as the user chooses the Sending/Receiving 'Plant', the system will auto-populate the respective Plant SAP Code and its Region.
- The attachment option (Paper-Clip) icon will remain disabled until the user selects any attachment type from the dropdown.
- As soon as a user enters Sending/Receiving Plant, Market, Product Family they will get an option to choose the Project team.
- Project Team
Project team is created or identified based on certain business rules that run in the background as soon as the user clicks on the Project Team icon in the Request Page. The business rules for both the process are different and mentioned below:
NPDI: The business rule is a combination of below
- Plant
- Region
- Market
- Product Family
This means that a user has to be active in all of these attributes in order to get their name in the Project Team suggested by the system. Since multiple people could fulfill these criteria the hence system lets the user (Requestor) choose the best possible user against each and every Function.
TT: This process contains two separate project team creation activities, first at the time of project initiation (i.e. via Request Page) and once the project approval is received at the 'TT Validation Team and Notification Task'. For both cases, the business rules are considered as follows:
- TT Request Page
- Strategy – Based on Product Family users chooses.
- Technology Manager – Based on Product Family & Region.
- Sending Plant Tech Manager – Based on Sending Plant selected.
- Receiving Plant Tech Manager – Based on Receiving Plant selected.
Since multiple people could fulfil these criteria, the system lets the user (Requestor) choose the best possible user against each and every Function.
- TT Team Validation & Notification Task:
- Receiving Site
- Region
- Product Family
- Market
This means that a user has to be active in all of these attributes in order to get their name in the Project Team suggested by the system. Since multiple people could fulfill these criteria the system lets the users (Requestor) choose the best possible user against each and every Function.
Please Note: As soon the user selects the team and click on submit button, the system will trigger a notification to all the users chosen as a part of the project with some basic project details.
- Different ways to access user tasks
The user can access the tasks assigned to them from 4 ways mentioned below:
- Launch Inbox: All the tasks assigned to the users can be located under this Tab. However once a user submit (Completes) the task, it will be removed from their inbox. Inbox will only display 'Active' tasks.
- Notifications: Users will be notified by the system if any task is assigned to them and they need to perform any action. Users need to watch their mailbox with the subject "Launch-Action Required (Project Name)". The users can open the email and will find a hyperlink in the mail body. Users can click on it and it will directly open their task in another tab of your chrome browser.
- Dashboard: Users can look into their projects, click on the Project Name to get an insight of its current status. Further, they can click on any phase which shows 'Active (in blue color)' to drill down to the stage level view, where they can find the tasks list under that phase and can see if any of the tasks is assigned to them by looking into the 'Owner' column of stage level view.
- Task List Management: Users can go to this tab, use the Quick search with their name to identify any tasks opened and assigned against their name. IMPORTANT NOTE: this tab will only display the most recent 80 tasks generated by the system regardless of their status. For this reason, it is likely a user will not be able to find any tasks against their name due to the restricted number of results. Hence users should always rely on either the email Notifications or Launch Inbox for the most reliable list of active tasks.
- Filter: Now users can search in the Task List Management list with Project Name, Task type, Task ID and Task Status.
- To search user need to click on Advance search icon beside quick search icon.as per below screen
- On click of Advance search user will get below screen
- To search with Project Name, user need to provide Project Name or keyword on which user want to do a search for example user want to search for Project which contains "test" in Project Name. User need to enter test(No need to put test, system will automatically put *and do wild card search) in Project Name text input text box and click on search icon
- Users will get below the screen as a result. User will get the list of projects which contains Test in their project Name.
- Similarly advance search for Task Type, Status, and Task Id can be done. Project Name, Task Type and Task Status do a wildcard search.
- Identifying the basic information in Header Section
You can find some basic information about the project in the header section of your tasks, dashboard.
The header will contain below details:
- Project Name – This is the project name with a format of 'ProductName_ProcessType_currentYear/FourDigitSystemGeneratedNumber'
- Plant Name & Plant SAP Code – Displays Plant Name along with SAP code.
- Process Type – Displays the process type initiated (NPDI or TT)
- Process Run– Displays the current Run of the process i.e. First Run or Repeat Trial 1,2,3….n
- More Information Section – In the right most section you will find an "Information Icon". By clicking that icon a side navigation window will open containing further details of the project primarily captured during project initiation i.e Market, Product Family, Business Justification, Creation Date, Requester Name, Desired Production Name, view all attachments icon etc.
- Different ways to access Attachments
Attachments can be accessed via 3 different ways mentioned below:
- Any attachments made against a task can be visible at the bottom of the very same task in a tabular format. Users can click on the Attachment to download it (if a file) or open it (if a URL) in a new tab. If required a user can remove the attachment by clicking on the Trash icon under column remove.
- Users can access any attachment made against the project from their task via Click to More Information icon in header → this will open a side nav → scroll down in the side nav to find a paper clip icon → click on that paper clip to open a dialog that will contain all the attachments made against that project.
- Go to dashboard, search for your project. Open the project by clicking to the hyperlink under column shortId → This will open Process Level View → locate the paper clip icon in the top right section of the screen → click to view all the attachments made against the project.
