Change management

Change Management preferences are also used by Teamcenter Manufacturing Process Planner. For more information, see the Teamcenter Manufacturing Process Planner documentation.

• The MEReleaseStatusListForAutoRevise preference contains a list of valid release status names. The default values are TCM Released and PlanningSyncState. Replace these values to match your business needs. Note This preference also controls revisioning on statused objects. If a user has revision rights and attempts to modify a statused object, Teamcenter Easy Plan prompts the user to create a new revision.

  Example A user moves an operation to another station. If one of the stations is released, Teamcenter Easy Plan revises it.

• The MEMCN_change_notice_mandatory_types preference requires Process Planning for BTO/BTS/CTO and Process Planning for ETO users to create a manufacturing change notice before they can edit certain types of BOPs. Note This preference is shared with Teamcenter Manufacturing Process Planner. For more information, see the Manufacturing Process Planner and Administering Manufacturing Planning documentation.

• The MEMCN_management_enabled preference enables ChangeNoticeRevision-related commands to display in Teamcenter Manufacturing Process Planner application. The default value is false. Set this preference to true to display the commands.

• The MEMCN_release_statuses preference defines the list of mutually exclusive release statuses for a ChangeNoticeRevision. A ChangeNoticeRevision is associated to a Bill of Material (BOM) window, and only one release status may be associated to the ChangeNoticeRevision at any stage. The default values are Pending and TCM Released. Replace these values to match your business needs.
