Before you create a new electronics work package, search to see if one exists that contains the structures you need.

  1. On your Home page, in the Actions panel, click Create Work Package.

  2. On the New Work Package page, select one of these types:

    PCB Work Package

    Electronics Work Package

  3. In the Name box, type the name you want to use.

  4. (Optional) Type additional information in the Description box.

  5. Click Create.

    The Manage Work Package page is shown. You can view package properties in the Overview section of the page. You can use other areas of the page to add or remove structures in the work package.

  6. (Optional) Add a product structure.

    Note You must add a product structure:

    When you create a printed circuit board (PCB) work package.
    
    
    When you want to display product assemblies in the steps of a manufacturing process.
    
  7. (Optional) Attach an eCAD file to a PCB work package.

    Note This step is required only when you create a PCB work package.
