Insert a level in the structure

You can create an item and insert it in the current structure as a new level below the selected line. The number of relative occurrences of the children is preserved. If you select more than one line, they must share the same parent.

Procedure

1. Select the parent line of the new level and choose Edit→Insert Level.Teamcenter displays the Insert Level dialog box.

2. Enter the item identifier and other attributes of the new item. If the inserted item is new, you must insert it with a quantity of 1.

3. On completion, click OK or Apply.Teamcenter creates the new item and inserts it as a new level. The selected branches become children of the inserted level, while the inserted level becomes a branch of the original parent. All existing variant conditions, notes, absolute occurrences, and other data is moved down with the selected branches. The default quantity of the new level is 1, meaning that no quantity change occurs.

Note

You can only insert a level if the line represents a standard business object type. If the line represents a custom type, copy it to the clipboard and choose Paste Special. Teamcenter pastes it as a new level above the currently selected line.
