Use Cases: Copying Entities from Upstream to Downstream after Creating Split Assemblies

Windchill+ User Help > Additional Capabilities > Manufacturing Process Management > Transforming an eBOM into an mBOM > Creating an mBOM > About New Split Assemblies Actions in BOM Transformer > Use Cases: Copying Entities from Upstream to Downstream after Creating Split Assemblies

Use the

New Split Assemblies action, available in the upstream view, to create split assemblies in downstream view from existing assemblies in the upstream view. For more information, see Creating Multiple Split Assemblies in Downstream View from Assemblies in Upstream View.

The following use cases provide insight into the working of the

New Split Assemblies action available in the upstream view of BOM Transformer. Configure and add the properties, mentioned in the use cases, to the custom.site.xconf file. For more information, see Setting Property Values and Propagating Your Changes. With the help of these properties, you can define which entities to be copied, either all or specific entities, from upstream view to downstream view. These entities can include parts, plants, plant attributes, departments, and department attributes, part attributes, and part associations.

• Use Case 1: Copy All the Plants and Plant Attributes

• Use Case 2: Copy All Plants and Specific Plant Attributes

• Use Case 3: Copy Specific Plants and Plant Attributes

• Use Case 4: Copy Target Plant and Plant Attributes Based on Downstream Context

• Use Case 5: Copy All But One Plant and Specific Plant Attributes

• Use Case 6: Copy Specific Plant Attributes data per Plant

• Use Case 7: Copy All Departments and Department Attributes

• Use Case 8: Copy Specific Departments and Department Attributes Values

The use cases provide insight into the working of the

New Split Assemblies action available in the upstream view of the BOM Transformer. The properties and their location , that are mentioned in these use cases are the same for the

New Split Assemblies action available in the downstream view of the BOM Transformer. You can use the same properties and try the use cases on split assemblies created using the

New Split Assemblies action available in the downstream view of the BOM Transformer.

After completing the procedure for a use case, ensure that you package your customization files for deployment using the CCD utility. Refer to the following sections for additional information.

Deploy Customization on Development Environment

For information on the CCD process for deployment, see Deploy Your Customizations on Your Development Environment.

Prepare CCD Package for Promotion

For information on the CCD process for promotion, see Deploying Code and Configuration Package.
