Apply Control Plan Template to Control Plan

Explanation

Each Control Plan Manufacturing, Control Plan Purchasing or Control Plan Inventory consists of two levels: a header and one or more lines. This activity is used to create new control plan lines using a Control Plan Template. The template can be used only to copy from, or with a reference that ensures the control plan contains exactly the same lines as the template that it refers to.

Prerequisites

Note: If a manufactured part is configurable, operation numbers and work centers referred on the template lines may not exist on the routing alternate, but you should check that they refer to combinations of operation number and work center number that may be the result of the configuration rules.
