Review impacted in-scope PMI objects

On the Work Instructions Authoring page, you can review changes to PMI properties.

If a part contains product manufacturing information (PMI) objects that have been changed by engineering, and that part is associated with change notices, indicators and impacted in-scope partial match warnings are displayed on the Work Instructions Authoring page to indicate the change to PMI properties.

Note

In-scope warnings are only displayed if an engineering change notice (ECN) is applied to the operation that contains the affected part, and a manufacturing change notice (MCN) is applied to that operation's work package.

For more information on change notices, see ECNs, MCNs, CRs, and ECRs.

Procedure

1. If you have not done so already, search for and open an existing work package that contains processes and parts and navigate to the Work Instructions Authoring page.

2. Click the Process tab and enable Show Comparison.

To the left of Show Comparison, the MCN is reported.

The Process tab displays an orange indicator . Any operations containing consumed parts with impacted PMI objects display the same indicator.

3. In the Process tab, select an affected operation.

If the Process tab is synchronized with the Editor tab, an orange indicator is also displayed on the Editor tab, and the operation is indicated.

4. In the information panel below the Editor tab, click the PMI tab, and in the Work Instructions Authoring page toolbar, click Calculate Impact on Product Views.

Impacted PMI objects display in-scope partial match warnings in the PMI tab. When you select an impacted PMI object in the tab, any affected product views are highlighted in the Visuals panel below the Viewer panel.

When the associated ECN is verified, the warnings are resolved.
