Generating a Work Instruction
To generate a work instruction using the Process Plan Browser:
Right-click on an operation or a process plan and select Work Instructions > Generate Work Instructions.
—or—
On the information page for a process plan, select Default Work Instructions from the Actions menu.
On the information page for an operation, select Work Instructions from the Actions menu.
* 
For a process plan associated with a co-produce object, the generated work instruction also displays the Produced Parts column. This column displays the part number of the primary and secondary parts used to create the co-produce object. The primary part information is displayed in bold and italics. The secondary part information appears in normal font. The primary and secondary part information reflects the latest version. The primary and secondary part information appears as a link. If you click the link, the part information page opens. If you hover over the link, you can see the identity of the part.
Creating illustrations for work instructions is done by creating an illustration for an operation. Images can also be added to an operation as document file, and then selected to be displayed as work instruction. Documents that have been selected to appear in the work instruction are noted on the Documentation tab.

When you click an illustration in a work instruction, the illustration opens in Creo View. If the illustration was created in Creo Illustrate, the image is read-only. Repositioning and annotation updates made in Creo View are not saved for those illustrations created in Creo Illustrate.
Key Points
You can use the Generate Work Instructions action in the Process Plan Browser to generate a work instruction. One or more assemblies can be related to a process plan. If you apply part tags and generate a work instruction from the Process Plan Browser, the work instruction is generated directly. The system displays the Various entities in the work instruction according to the applied part tags. For more information, see Using the Assign Part Tags Action in Process Plan Browser.
