Some actions are independent of the collection plan elements they are associated with. For example, you can define message actions, such as Display a message to the operator, or alert actions, such as Send an electronic mail notification, for any collection plan element.
Dependencies exist, however, between collection plan elements that are context elements and actions. For example, you can only define an Assign a shop floor status to the intraoperation step action, if you have added the To Operation Sequence and To Intraoperation Step context elements to your collection plan.
The following table lists these dependencies:
