Upstream reporting example
For an example of reporting budget values upstream, assume that a structure is organized as follows:
- Car/A;1 (View)
- 000010/A;1–Body (View)
- 000012/A;1–Door
- 000012/A;1–Door
- 000012/A;1–Door
- 000012/A;1–Door
- 000011/A;1–Wheel Assembly (View)
- 000013/A;1–Axle
- 000013/A;1–Axle
- 000010/A;1–Body (View)
In this example, assume that the budget is applied at the peak level, Car/A;1. If the expression is SUM, the values are processed as follows:
| Row | Element name | Actual Value | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Car/A;1 | 1055 | This value is the sum of B2 and B7. |
| 2 | 000010/A;1–Body | 340 | This value is the sum of B3, B4, B5, and B6. |
| 3 | 000012/A;1–Door | 79 | |
| 4 | 000012/A;1–Door | 79 | |
| 5 | 000012/A;1–Door | 91 | |
| 6 | 000012/A;1–Door | 91 | |
| 7 | 000011/A;1–Wheel Assembly | 715 | This value is the sum of B8 and B9. |
| 8 | 000013/A;1–Axle | 420 | |
| 9 | 000013/A;1–Axle | 295 |
