Engineering change management: Accompanying
documents
Description
If you want to document the change master record or the reason for change
in detail, you can use the functions of the document management system.
- Maintain one or more document info records. Using workstation applications
(such as a CAD program), you can, for example, create original application
files (such as drawings).
- Allocate one or more document info records to the change header of a
change master record as accompanying documents.
To do this, choose the entry
Accompanying documents from the menu
Extras . If you do not know the data of the
document key, you can search for the document directly from the
change master record function.
In the dialog box of the allocated document info records, you see the document
statuses. The indicator
Hierarchy shows you whether
or not the document info is part of a document hierarchy.
If several documents are allocated to the change master record, you can
restrict the list to include only the current versions.
Note:
From the dialog box Document links, you can display
each document info record in the list by double-clicking on it.
Further notes
Before you can use the full range of functions of the document management
system, you must set up your system accordingly. Please read the IMG
Document management.
