Manufacturing Installations can now have multiple input items of the Manufacturing Installation type.
To support this, a new Manage Installation Inputs command is added to the Authoring section of the action bar. It opens a new Manage Installation Inputs panel.
Benefits: This avoids the use of dummy nodes.

Managing Documents on Manufacturing Objects

You can now manage attachments and specifications through the reference link of any manufacturing object using the Documents command.
Benefits: The addition of the Documents command allows you to manage document attachments from rich client authoring sessions.

Implicit Filtering

Two new Implicit Filtering and Implicit filtering by product flow options are available in the Filter PPR Content panel.
A new Implicit filtering overload column is available in the PPR Spreadsheet Editor, with the following values: Never filtered, Based on siblings, and None (default).
Benefits: Implicit Filtering lets you filter a large number of operations taking into account implemented items' filtering result. Implicit filtering by product flow lets you add to Implicit Filtering a criteria on surrounding product flows to filter an operation.

Loading an Item's Implemented Products

A new Load Implemented Products context menu command lets you load, on the fly, the product structure from an item. It is available on Manufacturing Assemblies and Provided Parts with multiselection capabilities.
Benefits: This allows you, during planning, to use the Measure command and other commands which require the 3D representation.

B.I. Essentials: Revealing alternates or substitutes status of a Product or Manufactured Item

A new Alternates \ Substitutes Status B.I. Essentials is available.

Customizing the List of Item Subsets When Adding New Items in the Manage Alternates Substitutes Panel

You can now customize item subsets lists when adding a new item to the Alternates/Substitutes From Engineering Definition list of the Manage Alternates Substitutes panel by creating a new document in the ENOVIA Document Management app.
Benefits: This gives you access to an administrative setting to define the subset of Item object types (default or subtypes) that display in the Manufacturing Alternates Substitutes panel's New MID Creation list.
