Creating a Co-produce Object
Perform the following steps to create a co-produce object:
1. In the upstream or downstream structure pane, select the parts that you want to include in the co-produce object.
 |
You need to select at least two different parts from the same BOM structure.
|
2. From the Editing tool bar action, select New Co-produce.
A New Co-produce dialog box opens. The Primary list displays the selected parts.
3. In the Primary list, specify the part that should be the primary part for your co-produce object.
The other parts displayed in the list become the secondary parts for the co-produce object. Each revision of a part can be primary for only one co-produce object. A primary part revision can be reused as the secondary part but not as the primary part in another co-produce object.
4. Click OK.
The co-produce object is created. The Co-produce table in the Made From tab in BOM Transformer displays the primary and secondary parts for the coproduce object you created. For more information on the Co-produce table, see Made From.
| | If a primary part is revised, a new co-produce object is automatically created for the revised version. |
