Confirm Detailed Transfer

Explanation

Use this activity to confirm the transfer of detailed structures from IFS Engineering.

Prerequisites

• A detailed engineering structure must be defined. 
• Prototype Part Revision Prefix must be defined in the Site/Manufacturing tab in order to create prototype structures.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, the system creates a product structure. Depending on the part transfer template defined for parts in the structure, alternate components are also transferred, possibly overwriting existing definitions in manufacturing.

Procedure

1. Open the Engineering Revision Transfer Actions window. Query for the parent part.
2. Select the line. Right click and then click Engineering Transfer In Process.
3. Open the Engineering Structure Transfer Graphic window, right-click and then click Confirm.
4. Then open the Product Structure window. Query for the transferred part in your site. Promote the transferred structure into Buildable state.

Note

• You should promote the manufacturing structure from Tentative to Buildable state or set it to Obsolete state if it is not in use.
• This should be done because of how the Engineering Transfer process handles Tentative structure revisions. It is possible to create a situation where there is not a revision of a component in effect for the time the parent is phased in. Where only Tentative structure revisions exist, the Engineering Transfer process will update the revision, phase in and phase out dates on the oldest Tentative structure revision.
