Select an Unfeasible Machine

In some situations, aPriori considers a process to be unfeasible for auto-selected routing because there is no feasible machine for the process.

You can override this and select an unfeasible machine for a process:

1. In the Routing Editor, select View > Show Uncosted Nodes within Visible Routings.

   • The unfeasible nodes are displayed with a red status sign.

   • To see the message indicating why the process is not feasible, right-click on the process and select Rules/Status.

2. Select an unfeasible process and click OK. In the Manufacturing Process tree, the newly added process appears with a red status sign.

3. Right-click the newly added process and select Machine Selection.
4. Select the desired machine and click Advanced Options.
5. Check the Do not check feasibility option. aPriori costs the component with manually selected process and machine while ignoring the feasibility rules for that process/machine.
6. Click OK.
