Engineering BOM Management Part Compliance in 3DLive Examine

Engineering BOM Management uses 3DPlay to view 3D BOM assemblies and part-level compliance status. Your Business Administrator can configure the app to use 3DLive Examine examine instead.

If your app uses 3DLive Examine, use this procedure to view compliance information for parts. Parts are color-coded to represent compliance status according to the compliance type selected by the user.

Required access roles:

  • Baseline: Reader
  • App-specific: Compliance Engineer
