This activity is used to replace a component part, by-product part or disassembly component part in one selected structure, several selected structures or in all the structures where the component part is included. Depending on what you select on the page such as the rules for the site and the status on the structure, the outcome will be different when a part is replaced. In some of the scenarios, the component part will be replaced in the existing structures and for other situations a new revision will be created for the parent part.
