◦ Coproduce object
◦ Independent assigned expression
◦ Documents

◦ Duplicate action related with a process plan within MAPSB
| | All the above events done outside of the BOM Transformer are not recorded in the ECN. |
Based on the changes, the Resulting Objects table for the change task is updated.

Key Points
• In the Change Number field, you can only search for a change task. You can search for the change task using the change task name or number. Only the user-assigned change tasks that are not in terminated state and the change task for which you have permission to modify can be searched.
• In the Change Number field, once you enter the first three digits, special characters, or a combination of both, the system displays a list of results related to the entered data. You can only enter the change numbers that are opened for the current user. The results that are displayed also show the change numbers of the opened change tasks for the current user.
• You can also create a new change notice by clicking 
New change notice. If the newly created change notice has only one task associated with it, the number of the change task is auto populated in the Change Number field once the action is completed. If the newly created change notice has multiple change tasks associated with it, any change task number is randomly auto populated in the Change Number field. You can also change the already populated change task number.
