Viewing Parts Table in Specification
To view the Parts table for parts that are associated to a specification:
1. When viewing the product, select the Specifications detail page.
2. Choose Parts from the Specifications details page.
3. The Associated Parts table lists the part name, part number, and part version of parts already associated to the specification. This table is empty if no parts have been associated.
The Parts table displays the parts that are already associated to the product specification. If no parts are associated, the table is empty. You can also choose to have the table appear in collapsed or expanded view. From this table, you can sort parts by column header, remove a part from the product by disassociating it, view part details, and update the specification to part link. These actions are available from the Actions menu at the top of the table, or from the Action menu in the row for each part.
If you create a view for a parts table within a product specification, that table view can also be used within other product specifications.
Identifying Where Used for Parts in Specification
When viewing the Parts information page, you can select the Where Used tab. Selecting this option displays a table that shows which PTC FlexPLM specifications use that part and revisions of the part. Specifications that appear in this table are the specifications which you are authorized to view.
The Where Used table shows part name, version, context, and the specification product name. Clicking on the specification version link brings you to the Specifications detail page.
