Managing effectivities

Set effectivity for released BOP line revisions

You can set the effectivity of a released bill of process (BOP) line revision to indicate when a revision will be valid.

Prerequisites

The BOP line revision item on which you want to set effectivity must have a released status. If the process or operation is not released, you cannot set its release effectivity.

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 task page in which you want to work.

  2. Perform one of the following steps.

                 In the Process
                         Planning page, in the Process panel, select a line.
                 In the Work Instructions
                         Authoring page, in the Process tab, select a line.
                 In the High Level
                         Planning page, in the BOP panel, select a line.
                 In the Product BOP
                         Authoring page, in the Product
                         BOP panel, select a line.
    
  3. Click Release Effectivity.

                 Note 
                     This command is available only when you select a single item, and that
                         item has a released status. If the item does not meet both conditions,
                         the command is hidden.
    
  4. In the Release Effectivity panel, select the release effectivity and click Add Effectivities.

  5. In the Release Effectivity panel, modify the effectivity properties such as Date or Unit and ranges as necessary.

  6. (Optional) If the object has a release effectivity set, you can hover on the effectivity and click Edit, then change effectivity properties.

  7. (Optional) Click the release status list and select a different effectivity status.

  8. (Optional) Click Remove to delete an existing effectivity on an object.

  9. Click Save. The release effectivity properties you set are displayed in the Release Effectivity column in the panel.
