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

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.
