Description

Equivalent Logical Designator

If you use enterprise BOP structures, the accountability check takes process logical designators into consideration as an additional comparison criteria when checking the process, operation, or partition lines for equivalence.

Note

This check box is available only when both structures are enterprise BOP structures.

Propagating changes from a product BOP with logical designators used in multiple operations and a generic BOP using cloning can result in accountability errors. After running an advanced accountability check, operations that should display partial matches are sometimes reported as missing in target and missing in source. Use the Copy and Paste commands between generic and product BOPs rather than cloning.

Equivalent PublishLink Connection

If you use publish links, the accountability check highlights occurrences that are mapped using publish links. If a part occurrence is set to not require positioned design, it is also taken into consideration.

Note When checking accountability between structures, the direction of tracelinks is not considered.
