What's New

This page describes recent changes in Failure Modes & Effects Analysis.

This page discusses:

R2022x FD01 (FP.2205)

Associating Reference Tables

You can now associate several reference tables with an FMEA table.
Benefits: An FMEA table can now reference several reference tables, which contain information.
For more information, see Associating Reference FMEAs with an FMEA

Home Page

When opening the FMEA app, a new home page appears.
Benefits: The home page provides a quick access to start activities and to load recent elements.
For more information, see Standard Area

Improving Support of Computed Attributes

Computed formulas can now be evaluated on demand and stored.
Benefits: Computed attributes can now be persistent, searchable (for example using the 6WTags panel), exported to XML, and displayed in other apps.
For more information, see Refreshing Computed Attributes

Managing Attributes on Occurrences

You can now directly edit and export attributes on occurrences in tables depending on the used template.
Benefits: You can now analyze each equipment, which can have different attributes in context.
For more information, see Attributes on Occurrences

Customizing Labels in Trees and Tables

You can now customize the labels displayed in the trees and in the FMEA tables. The configuration of the patterns that define the labels of the PLM objects is done using Collaborative Spaces Control Center.
Benefits: Object labels can now follow the naming of your company.
For more information, see Labels Configuration

Configuring Partner URL for External Modules

You can now configure a URL for external modules provided by partners. The definition of URLs is done using Collaborative Spaces Control Center.
Benefits: External partner modules can now be called by the templates.
For more information, see Modules

Hiding Computed Effects and Identifying Failure Propagation Loops

You can now hide the calculated propagation effects for a more synthetic view.
You can also display elements involved in a propagation loop.
Benefits: You can now easily visualize propagation loops to fix them.
For more information, see Displaying Computed Effects Displaying a Propagation Tree

Linking Fault Isolation Procedures to Symptoms

You can now define a fault isolation manual, which represents the association of fault isolation procedures to symptoms.
Benefits: From a testability point of view, you can now isolate ambiguous symptoms using fault isolation procedures and fault isolation manuals.
For more information, see Linking Fault Isolation Procedures and Symptoms

Improving Integration to Bookmarks

The fallible references can now be organized in bookmarks in the Fallible Reference Editor.


Benefits: The Fallible Reference Editor is now initialized with the fallible references that are used in the currently loaded FMEAs.
For more information, see About the Fallible Reference Editor

Improving Content of Structure Tree

In the Structure Tree, if a function requirement or an operation requirement exists in a causality relationship, you can visualize induced elements such as failure modes, controls, or issues as children.
Benefits: You can easily visualize the elements of the FMEA table in the Structure Tree.
For more information, see About the Structure Tree

User Assistance Provided within Failure Modes & Effects Analysis

You can access the User Assistance panel by hovering over a command tooltip from the action bar and clicking More help, if these elements exist.
Benefits: The information provided in the User Assistance panel helps you to learn short information about some commands directly without opening the User Assistance Portal.

R2022x GA

Managing Groups in Multivalued Cells

If some cells of the table can contain multiple values, you can assign group numbers to the object contained in the cells.
Benefits: Objects in the cells of your tables can now be sorted in ascending order based on group numbers.
For more information, see Managing Logical Groups
