2. Specify the following details for a process plan:
In Name, enter a name for the process plan.
In Location, click Autoselect Folder if you want the process plan to be created in the product folder from which you launched the action. Otherwise, click Select Folder and enter a path to an alternate folder.
In Unit and Standard lists, select the appropriate options.
In Occurrence Allocation From Any Level list, select Yes or No. Select Yes to allow allocation of child parts to operations in process plan.
3. Optionally, enter values in the Category, Number, Description, View fields for the process plan.

On the folder browser page, a confirmation message is displayed indicating that the process plan is created.
When you create a process plan using Process Plan tab in BOM Transformer, the process plan takes on the attributes of the part selected in BOM Transformer (such as Base Unit of Measure) and is automatically related to the part.
