Define Applicable Parts for Standard Control Characteristics
You can define applicable child parts on the standard control characteristics of the parent part using one of the following methods:
Creating Standard Control Characteristic
1. Select a model annotation and the child parts or child part occurrences of the parent part that owns the model annotation.
You can select the child parts or child part occurrences from any level under the parent part.
* 
If the selected child parts have multiple occurrences, all the occurrences of the part will be considered when applying the standard control characteristic in the usage mode. If you want to apply the standard control characteristic only to specific occurrences, create the standard control characteristic in the occurrence mode.
2. Click Create Control Characteristic.
3. Click Yes to confirm the action.
The standard control characteristic is created for the parent part that owns the model annotation and applied on the selected child parts or occurrences. The Applicable Parts column in the Control Characteristics tab of the parent part displays the path of the applicable child parts. If multiple occurrences were selected when creating the standard control characteristic, multiple paths are shown separated by a semicolon.
Using Tree Structure
1. In the tree structure of BOM Transformer, select the required standard control characteristics and the child parts or child part occurrences on which you want to apply the standard control characteristics.
Ensure that the child parts or occurrences belong to the parent part that owns the selected standard control characteristics.
* 
If the selected child parts have multiple occurrences, all the occurrences of the part will be considered when applying the standard control characteristic in the usage mode. If you want to apply the standard control characteristic only to specific occurrences, use the occurrence mode.
The action supports the selection of multiple standard control characteristics.
2. Right-click and select Add Applicable Parts.
3. Click Yes to confirm the action.
After you confirm the action, the standard control characteristics are applied to the selected child parts.
Using Visualization Area and Tree Structure
1. In BOM Transformer, select the standard control characteristics from the tree structure.
2. In the Visualization tab, select the child parts or child part occurrences on which you want to apply the standard control characteristics.
Ensure that the child parts or occurrences belong to the parent part that owns the selected standard control characteristics.
* 
If the selected child parts have multiple occurrences, all the occurrences of the part will be considered when applying the standard control characteristic in the usage mode. If you want to apply the standard control characteristic only to specific occurrences, use the occurrence mode.
The action supports the selection of multiple standard control characteristics.
3. In the Visualization toolbar, click the Update Control Characteristic menu and select Add Applicable Parts.
4. Click Yes to confirm the action.
* 
An error message appears if some of the selected parts are not valid child parts. The standard control characteristics are not applied to those child parts.
After you confirm the action, the standard control characteristics are applied to the selected child parts.
The Applicable Parts column in the Control Characteristics tab of the parent part that owns the standard control characteristics displays the path of the applicable child parts.
You can also verify the applied parts in the Visualization tab. Right-click the appropriate standard control characteristics in the tree structure of BOM Transformer, and select the action Select Annotations with Applicable Parts. The child parts on which you applied the standard control characteristics and the associated model annotations are highlighted in the Visualization tab. The relevant child parts are also highlighted in the part structure.
The Select Annotations with Applicable Parts action is also available in the process plan browser. Selecting the action highlights the applicable parts in the part structure and the associated model annotations in the visualization area of Tree Picker. In the occurrence mode, the tab highlights only the occurrences of child parts that are consumed in the given operation.
Additionally, you can use the Select Applicable Parts action in the Visualization tab of BOM Transformer to verify the applicable child parts in the part structure. Select one or more model annotations in the visualization area and click . The standard control characteristics and the applicable child parts of the parts that own the selected model annotations are highlighted.
