This activity is used to to create a new revision for an inventory part.
A new inventory part revision can be created from the Part Revision and Part Revisions pages. A given part may have many revisions, only one of which will be active at any time. The Part Rvisionn and Part Revisions pages can also be used to view and maintain inventory part revision information.
In the Part Revision page for each part number, you can see the engineering change orders associated with the part, including the source of the change order and the date that the change order was made. Any ECO information will be transferred automatically when a part revision is created by an engineering transfer. You can also manually enter engineering change orders for the selected part.
An inventory part must exist.
As a result of this activity a new revision of the inventory part is created.
If the revision number of the new inventory part revision starts with the prototype part revision prefix that is defined for the site, also a product structure header of type Prototype is created for the new inventory part revision.
