Create a new item or item revisions

You can create an item revision and structure it as an assembly, by adding new components one item or part at one time. This technique is useful when doing top-down modeling. You must have write access to the BOM view revision to create the new item revision.

Procedure

1. Select the parent assembly in the product structure tree.

2. Choose File→New→Item or File→New→Part. Teamcenter displays the Create Item or Create Part dialog box.

3. Enter the necessary parameters in the dialog box and click OK. Teamcenter creates the new item or part (or its revision) and adds it as a component of the selected assembly.

Note

If you add parts or part assemblies to an assembly, you can subsequently publish links to the associated CAD designs, as described in Introduction to aligning CAD and BOM. This step is not necessary if you add items or item revisions, as you can attach CAD designs directly.
