LINEAR ASSET DATA

[nnia_ejemezu1]

Hi Gurus,

I'm currently working on Master data for Linear Assets particularly Piping. My client have decided to sectionalize the linear assets into 6 meters per section.

My question is: What does FLOC description mean with respect to linear asset. Is it referring to the description of a particular section of the asset (which is 6 meters in this regards) say from one start point to another, or is it the description of the entire functional location which will be common for every section of that piping FLOC. In other words, do i need to maintain unique FLOC description for every section or will FLOC description be common notwithstanding the section in question.

Hello,

depend son your modelling - and your requirements.

if you really desire to have individual FLOCs for each 6 m segment (Seg1 from 0 to 5m, Seg2 from 6 to 11, ....) you also need to have distinct identifying part.

LAM brings the option to refer to a "linearly determined" location (point or line segment) of an object (say the whole Pipe - not necessarily sub-segmented in small pieces - in notifications and orders. If there is a hole 9 meters from the start this would be linear length 9 meter from the start of the overall objects - or 3 meters from the start of the second subsegment. For such use cases sub-segmentation would not be needed IMHO.

Thank you so much Manfred

Had you successfully implemented the project, presently I have the same assignment.
