Search for objects in the BOP tree

You can quickly search the bill of process (BOP) tree on the Process Planning or Work Instructions Authoring page to locate a process line, process station, process, or operation.

Procedure

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

2. If you are working in the Process Planning page, in the Process panel, put your cursor in the Search process or operation field, type your query and click Search.

      Tip 
        You can use wildcard characters in your search. For example, type *scan* to search for a work area item name that begins with scan. To ensure the best search results, create a query with narrow parameters.
