Creating a Material Assignment Link
A material assignment link exists between an engineering material object and a related part.
You can create a material assignment link object by specifying an engineering material object in the request URI and the required and optional attributes in the request body. You can also create a material assignment link object by specifying an optional soft attribute in the request body.
 |
The attributes BuildStatus and RelatedPart are required attributes. To create a material assignment link, you must first check out the related part.
