Replacing Production Resources/Tools 

Use

The Plant Maintenance component enables you to perform bulk changes for production resources/tools that are assigned to operations in maintenance task lists. Using the bulk changes procedure saves you time, because you do not need to individually change each task list.

When you change a PRT using the bulk changes procedure, the system first generates a where-used list (see Creating Where-Used Lists for Production Resources/Tools). From this list, you can select the task lists in which you want to change the PRTs.

You can use the bulk changes procedure for all four PRT categories:
