This activity is used to add by-products to a product structure alternate of type manufacturing, remanufacturing, repair, prototype or disassembly. A by-product is an unintentional secondary product produced simultaneously with the main product, typically holding a lower value compared to the main product.
To add a by-product, create a new line with the Type set to By-Product on the Produced Parts tab. Enter the Part to add, and the quantity produced relative to the unit of the parent part in Qty per Unit field. Optionally, connect the by-product to the operation where it is produced.
As a result of this activity, by-products are added to the product structure alternate.
