Open a plant BOP in a standalone viewer

Manufacturing engineers can open a plant bill of process (BOP) in a standalone viewer to validate the plant BOP after process planning is complete. If a product development engineer (PDE) needs to change out a part, the PDE can open the plant BOP to determine whether the part is consumed within the plant BOP.

Note

Your Teamcenter administrator must install TCM Visualization in your environment before you can perform this task. Contact the Teamcenter administrator if you are unable to complete this task.

User information about the standalone viewer is in the How do I? section of the Teamcenter Lifecycle Visualization documentation, which is available on the Siemens Digital Industries Software Support Center.

1. Open a work package that contains processes and parts.

2. Navigate the plant BOP to a process area or process line.

3. Select an object with an assembly or subassemblies associated to it, and then click Open in Teamcenter Visualization .

   Teamcenter Visualization opens in a separate window, and loads the plant BOP at the station level.

4. In the Project Workspace panel, expand the station and MBOM structure.

   Note The standalone viewer displays graphics for all assigned parts. Scoped parts do not display in the viewer.

5. Select check boxes to view and hide parts in the Graphics view panels.
