Global Templates

Global templates are master data that contain basic information about a calculation element. Templates, such as material or machine, contain value rules that are described as object-dependent.

Inserting a global template in the calculation takes over the basic information and the template becomes a concrete calculation element with a reference to the master data.

The template itself remains unaffected if you add values to the global template in the calculation or change existing values.

Global templates are used to quickly build a calculation structure and for repeated use.

They are created as data records in the Master Data workspace. You can search and open the templates by using queries.
