Equivalent Parts Tab
Use the Equivalent Parts tab to display and modify the equivalent part information of the part selected in the tree structure display. The equivalent part tab links a part listed in the upstream BOM, with the downstream BOM part. For example, it links a design eBOM part with the mBOM part used in the manufacturing BOM.
This link is between two part iterations. A part may have multiple equivalent links. The following link tables appear on this tab:
• Upstream Equivalent Parts Table: Displays the eBOM part from which the selected mBOM part was originally created.
• Latest Non- Linked Iteration of Upstream Parts Table: Displays any iteration of the upstream part that has been created for the selected downstream part but is not linked to the upstream part.
• Latest Non- Linked Iteration of Downstream Parts Table: Displays any iteration of the downstream part that has been created for the selected upstream part but is not linked to the upstream part.
• Downstream Equivalent Parts Table: Displays the mBOM part that has been created for the selected eBOM part.
