Searching for product views

After creating product views, there are many situations that may require finding all product views associated with a particular part so that you can update them. For example:

  • A part in the original product structure may be replaced by another part. You must then update all product views containing the replaced part.

  • A part's geometry or transformation data may change.

  • A part may be removed from the product structure.

  • A part may be moved from one operation to another or from one subassembly to another.

  • You may want to re-create a product view based on an existing one.

Note

If you want to use the Auto Update feature, your administrator must first install Dispatcher Server, as detailed in Getting started with administering Manufacturing Process Planner.
