Managing Implement Links

Create an Implement Link

You can create an implement link between a manufactured item and an operation under the same scope.

Before you begin:

Create a root manufactured item with children manufactured items.
Create a root system with children operations and a scope link to the root manufactured item.

Select a child manufactured item and a child operation.
From the Authoring section of the action bar, click Create Link .

Tip: You can also drag the manufactured item to the operation.
In the dialog box, click Implement .

An implement link is created between the manufactured item and the operation:

In the left block, the linked operation appears in the Routings column.
In the bottom block, the linked manufactured item appears in the Consumed Items column.
The manufactured item and the operation are cross-highlighted upon selection.

Remove an Implement Link

You can delete an implement link between a manufactured item and an operation. This action does not remove the scope link between the parent objects.

Select the manufactured item or the operation.
The linked object is cross-highlighted in the dashboard.
From the Authoring section of the action bar, click Relations .
The Relations panel displays, listing existing links for the objects.
Next to the required link, click Contextual Menu then Delete Link .

The implement link between the manufactured item and the operation is removed and disappears from the dashboard. The objects are no longer cross-highlighted.
