Creating and Managing Measurement Libraries

PTC FlexPLM Fundamentals > Measurements > Creating and Managing Measurement Libraries

PTC FlexPLM allows you to create various measurements-related libraries and templates to aid in the management of sizes, points of measure, and grade rules throughout the system. You can create templates for:

• Creating and Managing Points of Measure

• Creating and Managing Measurement Templates

• Creating and Managing Grade Rule Templates

You access all measurements-related libraries from the home page. Select Libraries > Measurements, and select the appropriate measurements type from the type hierarchy.
