The Customer Schedule Agreement/Customer Parts page can be used both for entering and studying customer parts connected to the agreement. If the tolerances and policies are identical for all parts included in the agreement, the customer parts are more easily entered on the Customer Schedule Agreement/Customer Parts page. While if the tolerances and policies are specific for each customer part, it is advisable to continue to enter the parts on the Customer Schedule Agreement Part page.
If the tolerances and policies are identical for all parts, the fastest way to enter them is to start on the Customer Schedule Agreement/Agreement Defaults page and then continue to the Customer Schedule Agreement/Customer Parts page.
If the tolerances and policies are not already entered or should differ from the conditions indicated in the Tolerance Check Defaults tab, you can continue by entering applicable values manually.
The part can have four states; planned, active, negotiated, or closed. The Planned status means that the part is being entered and will change to active whenever it is ready to be used. The status Negotiated is used if the condition of the part needs to be renegotiated, that is in case some methods or policies need to be revised after the part has been activated. The last status Closed is used whenever the part will no longer be in use.
