This activity is used to change the class of a design object. The class will in most cases be changed from a temporary class designation to a final class designation. Refer Parent Class in About Classes for the classes to which an object class can be changed. Previously, design objects may have been registered with with a class because design work was incomplete and the exact design object type was unknown. At this stage, the final class that the design object belongs to, has been decided.
The class of a design object can be changed from Design Object page and if you want to change the class of many objects, you can use Design Objects page.
- The Object Type for the new class, must be the same as the object class of the equipment object corresponding to the design object whose class is being changed.
- The Object Level for the new class, must be the same as the object class of the equipment object corresponding to the design object whose class is being changed.
The new class will be assigned to the object. Object data may be lost by changing the class. Refer to Changing Design Object Class in About Classes for more information.
