Enter Project Item

Explanation

There are different ways of registering the project items to use in your delivery project. You can use Project Product/Items to identify the items in your delivery project. All individual items to be used in your project's delivery structure can be entered here, including the top part item for the project. You can also insert new items to the project in Project Item Navigator/Consist Of. By entering the item in Project Item Navigator/Consist Of, the item is inserted directly into the structure.

Documents and document requirements that are common for all occurrences of this part revision should be connected to the part definition, while documents and document requirements that are specific to this item should be connected to it. Documents can also be connected to the item tag and serial number.

Enter parts in Project Item Navigator/Consist Of:

  2. Create a new record.
  3. If the part you are inserting as a child item is already registered in the project, you  can select the Project Item check box. In the Part Number column, use the List of Values, which will list all project items that are not used in a structure, to select the required item and click OK. If the part is not a project item, you can enter an internal ID, but if the field is left blank, it will be generated by the system. Then use the List of Values in the Part Number field to select a part and click OK. The part revision will be set to the latest released revision, but the field can be modified.
