5 2 S e t t i n g W o rk f l o w Managem e n t 2.1 I n t r o d u c t i o n 2 Setting Workflow Management 2.1 Introduction The module group Setting Workflow Management (SWM ) is specially developed for relay devices, and allows you to administrate all activities related to their settings. The workspace is structured in three levels, System Change Notification (i.e. description of any event), Global Setting Requests (affecting several physical relays), and Relay Setting Requests (RSR, affecting one single physical relay). Each level has its own workflow the workflow for Global Setting Request (GSR) is fully customizable. A major benefit of this all-round solution is the handling of relay settings through properly controlled workflows. The SWM module represents and supports the entire process of Setting Life Cycle Management. Every potential setting change must be created by SCN. Various reasons for setting change can be defined through various SCN types. SCN types are defined within the module Document Template definition. The process starts with a reason for a setting change, continues with setting development and implementation of the setting in the setting database, and finally manages testing and confirmation of the setting on site including final validation phase. Prior to using the SWM module group, the appropriate user rights must be given/adjusted: Figure 1: Relevant user rights for the SWM module group The module group consists of six modules: System Change Notifications (SCN) Workflow Definition Document Template Definition RSR Overview Project Manager Site Configuration Working Order The above list corresponds with the order of modules in the application. The System Change Notifications module will be used most in the SWM module group once everything is set up, and is therefore the first module. NOTE: If you start with an empty application you have to begin with defining workflows and document templates for the use in the SCN as a precondition. IPS-Intelligent Process Solutions GmbH 2/55

6 2 S e t t i n g W o rk f l o w M a n a g e m e n t 2.1 I n t r o d u c t i o n Structure The SWM process is always triggered by SCN. A single SCN can incorporate one or several GSR, and one GSR can incorporates one or several RSR. Therefore, the structure looks like this: SCN1 SCN2 GSR1 GSR2 SCNn GSRn RSR1 RSR2 RSRn Identifiers Management The input format for all various identifiers is standardized through the whole module group SWM. The following format fields are supported for all identifiers SCN ID-GSR ID-RSR ID: {YYYY} actual calendar year 4 digits {YY} actual calendar year 2 digits {MM} actual calendar month with potential leading zero always 2 digits {DD} actual calendar date of the month with potential leading zero always 2 digits {hh} actual hours with potential leading zero in 24-hour clock convention always 2 digits {hh12} - actual hours with potential leading zero in 12-hour clock convention always 2 digits {am} am or pm indicating a.m. or p.m. in 12-hour clock convention in lowercase {AM} AM or PM indicating a.m. or p.m. in 12-hour clock convention in uppercase {mm} actual minutes with potential leading zero always 2 digits {ss} actual seconds with potential leading zero always 2 digits {nn} {nnnnnnnn} index the number of n characters could be from 2 to 8 (for instance {nnn} would generate number 001 with leading zeros) Notice that each individual field must be enclosed in curly brackets. The field characters are case sensitive. The uppercase and lowercase of the fields are important for instance in order to distinguish months and minutes. The above format specification uses 12 a.m. for midnight and 12 p.m. for noon in 12-hour clock convention. All the date fields are evaluated based on the current local time and date of the computer where the application runs. The fields are evaluated always in the moment when the RSRI is auto-generated (for instance in the moment of opening the Relay Setting Request form for RSR object creation).

7 2 S e t t i n g W o rk f l o w Managem e n t 2.1 I n t r o d u c t i o n The index calculation is always starts from 1 internally. The RSR Index field usually contains two main types. Numeric index only this approach is used when the RSRs are created in server database only when the index uniqueness could be verified (all RSRs are created in same database) Date/time stamp this approach is used when the RSRs for same GSR are created in mobile clients (in different databases) and uniqueness cannot be verified by the application The standard numbering is usually defined in global setting request identifier level (like company numbers, years etc.) Examples: {nnnn} will be resolved as 0001 (numeric index) {MM}{dd}{hh}{mm}{ss} will be resolved as (date/time stamp) Besides the above fields list the following additional field is available for GSRI: {SCNID} the SCN ID of the parent system change notification will be placed during the format mask evaluation Since the selected GSRI format is enforced additional format characters are introduced in order to support optional additional digits, letters or any characters. 9 or #- optional digit A or a optional digit or letter & - optional any character? optional letter "<free text>" - <free text> replaces any text string It is important to say that unlike for system change notification identifier all fields and fix texts must be enclosed to double quotes and optional character marks must be outside of the quotes. Examples: If the selected SCN ID = IPS then {YYYY}_{SCNID}_{nnn} aaa will be resolved like 2012_IPS _001 or if the user enters some character instead of aaa like b2 then it will be 2012_IPS _001 b2 IPS {YYYY}-{MM}-{DD}_{hh}{mm}{ss} will be resolved as IPS _ The corresponding identifiers are auto-generated but the user has always the possibility for editing/changing. Check for unicity is always made within the current database of use. About SRI Format NOTE: The SRI format for SCN, RSR and CIR cannot be seen or selected.

It also is a workflow for a global setting request related to one SCN and one specific global request such as a request for one substation and all relays within this substation. Multiple GSR are required when different setters are required. One GSR can have only one responsible setter. Further multiple GSR are used, for example, to manage several substations (one GSR per substation). As in other parts of the software the New blank opens a new and empty window while the option New creates a duplicate of the selected SNC entry containing the same details which can then be adjusted. The GSR Creation Wizard leads you through the process of creating a new GSR. Start the wizard via the context menu: Figure 12: The GSR Creation Wizard leads you through the creation process. NOTE: A precondition for the setup of a GSR is the definition of the Setting Workflow Type and the corresponding Workflow and SRI (Setting Request Identifier) format.

Figure 56: RSR for Site Implementation within the RELEX module group This module has specially been developed for staff working in the field to provide easy access to the required RSR for site implementation. All activities can be run from one user interface. After the setting is implemented and the RSR is closed, the setter should verify all GSR corresponding to RSR. After closing a GSR, all corresponding RSR will be removed from the list of RSR for Site Implementation. Inclusion of RELEX functionality: In the SWM module group, users do now have access to full RELEX functionality as if they were directly in the RELEX module group. This includes access to report generation, and asset location information is displayed directly in the dialog header. Ability to access relay setting reports within the SWM module group Setting Workflow Management is enabled through a new condition definition (execute action). Get a Relay Setting Sheet Report directly through the RSR, Relay Setting tab: IPS-Intelligent Process Solutions GmbH 47/55
