You can use this feature to phase out or replace a component part in one
or several specific structures or in all structures.
By clearing the
Update all Effective Structures setting, the page will populate all structures
in which the components are effective and you can select the structures you
want to replace the component with.
The replacement of a component can be done for:
If structures exist with a parent part phase-in date earlier than the component
part phase-in date, a new revision will be created. There is a setting that
will be selected if this is the situation for one or more structures.
If the structure has an existing phase-out date and if a new revision is
created then the new revision will have the same phase-out date.
These rules
are independent of the site rules which are valid for manufacturing.
There are different rules depending on how you have managed to set up manufacturing
for the site.
If the site rules are simplified, you have the option
of creating new revisions. Even if the site rules do not generate new revisions,
you can override the site rules by selecting the Create New Revision
setting.
You can create a new revision in the same status as the revisions
that you will replace, by selecting the Create Revision setting in
same status as the existing status.
If you have more than one alternate
structure for the same revision and one of the alternates gets a new revision,
all alternates will get new revisions, because revision is per structure and
not per alternate.
Below are rules over how the time for the phase-out date
and structures phase-in date works in relation to each other.
Structure Status | Site Rule | Selection Setting New Revision | Consequence | Comment |
Tentative Plannable |
Restricted Enhanced Simplified |
The changes will be done in the existing revision and no new revisions will be created. | ||
Buildable | Restricted Enhanced |
New revision will be created. Existing revision, Phase Out Date = Today New Revision, Phase In Date = Tomorrow |
The new structure status will depend
on: Choice in the page. Default structure status rules in Site page. |
|
Buildable | Simplified | The changes will be done in the existing revision and no new revisions will be created | ||
Buildable | Simplified | Selected | New revision will be created. The application will handle the same way as it does if the site rule is restricted or enhanced. |
The new structure status will depend
on: Choice in the page. Default structure status rules in Site page. |

New revision will be created. Existing revision, Phase Out Date = Phase Out Date for the Component Part New Revision, Phase In Date = The day after the Phase Out Date for the existing revision.

The new structure status will depend
on: Choice in the page. Default structure status rules in Site page. |
*1 This situation can lead to that a structure can be set to Buildable before the phase-in date of the component in this structure.
