When the application needs to present a chart or a tree that includes the list of procedures, it chooses to display the procedures in an order that is the same consistent everywhere it appears. That is why the order of appearance of procedures in the Operations Gantt Chart (Tasks } Gantt Charts } Operation GC) or in the Utilization Breakdown tree (View } Utilization Breakdown } Procedures) or in the Throughput Analysis Utilization Factors chart (Charts } Throughput Analysis } Utilization Factors) is the same. This order is kept by the process object, and it can be either modified from any of the style dialogs of the interfaces that use it, or from the Include / Exclude / Order Unit Procedures Dialog that is accessible from the flowsheet’s context menu (Preferences } Procedure Order). You may chose to keep the order of procedures based on:
1. First time of engagement
2. Alphabetically (ascending)
3. Alphabetically (descending)
4. User’s custom order
If you chose 1 - 3 above any new procedure added later is automatically included in the order based on the selected criterion. If you chose (4) above (Custom Order), any new procedure created after the order has been set, it is added to the end of the list.
When the application needs to present a chart or a tree that includes the list of equipment resources, it chooses to display the equipment in an order that is the consistent everywhere it appears. That is why the order of appearance of equipment resources in the Equipment Gantt Chart (Tasks } Gantt Charts } Equipment GC) or in the Equipment Occupancy Chart (Charts } Equipment Occupancy } Single (or Multiple)) or in the Utilization Breakdown tree (View } Utilization Breakdown } Equipment) or in the Main Equipment Occupancy Data Table or Chart (View } Main Equipment Occupancy Data } Chart or Table) is the same. This order is kept by the process object, and it can be either modified from any of the style dialogs of the interfaces that use it, or from the Include / Exclude / Order Equipment Dialog that is accessible from the flowsheet’s context menu (Preferences } Equipment Order). You may chose to keep the order of equipment resources based on:
1. First time of engagement
2. Alphabetically (ascending)
3. Alphabetically (descending)
4. User’s custom order
If you chose 1 - 3 above, any new equipment resource is added (later), it is automatically included in the order based on the selected criterion. If you chose ‘Custom Order’, any new equipment created after the order has been set, it is added to the end of the list.
