Creating a resource

You can create new or revised resources in the Manufacturing Resource Library (MRL) in the following ways:

• Create a new resource without classification or attributes.

When a resource is not selected or opened, use More commands →New →Create Resource on the primary toolbar to create and manually classify a new resource. For more information see Create new resources.

• Create a new resource and select to use the classification and attributes of an existing resource.

When a resource is selected or opened, use More commands →New →Create Resource on the primary toolbar to create a new resource, but you can select to use the classification and values of the selected resource. For more information see Create resources using an existing resource.

• Create a new resource that includes the classification and attributes of an existing resource.

When a resource is selected or opened, use More commands →New →Save As on the primary toolbar to create a new resource with the classification and values of the selected resource. For more information see Create resources using Save As.

• Create a revision of an existing resource that includes the classification and attributes.

When a resource is selected or opened, use More commands →New →Revise on the primary toolbar to revise a resource with the classification and values of the selected resource. For more information see Create resources using Revise.

• Create a revision of an existing resource and all parent assemblies that includes the classification and attributes.

When a resource is selected or opened, use More commands →New →Revise Including Parent Assemblies on the primary toolbar to revise a resource, and all parent assemblies, with the classification and values of the selected resource. For more information see Revise resources and parent assemblies.
