The availability of these tabs is dependent on the type of structure being filtered. |

Plant Filter | Use this tab to filter out a structure based on a particular plant. You need to set the Allow Plant-Specific Filtering in BOM Transformer/SAPSB preference to Yes to view this tab. | BOM Transformer, SAPSB |
Part Tag Filter | Part tags can be used to filter an assembly when multiple parts or assemblies have been related to a process plan. Once a part tag has been assigned you can use a filter to display only those objects which match the related assembly of your choosing. Part tags can be assigned to the following objects: • Operations • Documents • Resources • Plants For more information see Assigning Part Tags. | PPB |
A Latest configuration specification filter is used by default the first time a part structure is accessed in a browser session. Subsequent structure filters applied to part structure remain in force until they are changed or the browser session is ended. |
When you open the Edit Filter dialog box, the status of the Apply to top level object check box depends on the value set in the user-level preference Apply Configuration specification to the originally selected object. When the value is set to No, which is the default, the Apply to top level object check box is not selected. When it is set to Yes, the Apply to top level object check box is selected. When working with the BOM Transformer, it is recommended by PTC that you set the value of user-level preference Apply Configuration specification to the originally selected object to Yes. |
The Hide unresolved dependents check box is unavailable if the Apply latest for unresolved dependents check box is selected. |
