Assign classified tools and resources to operations
You can assign tools and resources from a classified library to operations in many task pages.
Procedure
If you have not done so already, search for and open an existing work package that contains processes and operations and navigate to the Process Planning, Work Instructions Authoring, or Product BOP Authoring page.
In the relevant task panel (usually the Process tab or panel), select the operation to which you want to assign classified tools and resources.
In the Information panel, click the Resources tab, and then click Classification Search .
The Resources tab, as shown in the Product BOP Authoring page above, shows resources that are already assigned to the selected operation. When you click Classification Search, the Active Workspace Classification library is opened.In the Class Navigator, locate and select the preferred resource and click Copy . Note For more information, see Classification and Library Management.
Return to the Easy Plan task page, and in the Resources toolbar, click Paste . The Resources table now lists the classified objects you assigned to the operation. Columns, which are customizable, might include the following.
The Classifications column indicates which resources in the table are classified. If this field is blank, the object in that row is non-classified.
The Occurrence Type column indicates which occurrence type is assigned to each assigned resource. Your Teamcenter administrator defines which occurrence types are assigned to assigned resources in the structure.
