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.
Prerequisites
- The part must exist in IFS/PDM Configuration.
- The delivery project must exist.
- If the project item is inserted directly into the structure (by using
Project Item Navigator/Consist Of), the following requirements must also be met:
- A Realized project item can consist only of Realized items. The project item for the new serial must be Realized if the parent item is Realized.
- A serial cannot be used in more than one project serial structure.
- A standard planned project item with structure in both engineering and manufacturing cannot be modified, i.e., by entering a new part its structure. A new revision must be created and then the structure can be built, or the standard planned part's structure can be copied to the new revision.
System Effects
- The part is defined as a project item.
- Project Part Definition is updated. If the part revision already exists in the project, item occurrences for that part revision are increased. If it is the first occurrence of this part revision, a new part definition is created.
- The document survey from the standard part revision is not copied to the project item.
- If the project item was entered in Project Item Navigator/Consist Of, the item is used in a structure.

Procedure
Enter parts in Project Product/Items:
- Create a new record.
- Minimal information to be entered is as follows: part number (the List of
Values is available), revision (the List of Values is available), and MPL Part.
Note that the values of the Provide Code and MPL Part fields can be
modified for a project item to suit the delivery project’s material
procurement needs.
- If desired, enter any other information.
- Save the changes.
Enter parts in
Project Item Navigator/Consist Of:
- Select the item for which you want to create a child item, then activate the
Consist Of tab.
- Create a new record.
- 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.
- If desired, enter any other information.
- Save the changes.
