Searching by occurrence notes
Your Teamcenter administrator defines those occurrence notes that are mapped to appearance attributes for a given appearance set. You can use these mapped occurrence notes as search criteria.
For example, a mapped occurrence note may indicates if a given part is used on the interior or exterior of the product. You can search by occurrence notes to identify all brackets on the exterior.
Similarly, a mapped occurrence note may be a number that references a specific illustration in a service manual that describes how to disassemble the part. You can then search by occurrence notes for all parts illustrated in the appropriate section of the manual.
