Adding Items to a Collection from a List Page

You can add items to a new or existing collection. For example, you can search for parts, then select particular parts from the search results to add to a collection. If you enter a new collection name, the new collection is created. If you select an existing collection, the selected items are added to those already included.

You can also add items to an existing collection from that collections's Items page.

Collections can include any type of object. For example, a collection could be created to group similar parts or to group documents related to a particular project.

Before you begin: Execute a search to locate the items you need or view a list of items. Not all lists include the tool.
  1. Check each item that you want to include in the collection.
  2. Click to add the checked items to the clipboard collection.

    Or

    Select New/Add to Collections or Add to Clipboard Collection from the pull-down menu.

    If you add objects to the clipboard collection, you are finished with this procedure.

    If you selected New/Add to Collections, the Select Collection dialog box opens, showing all collections that you own.

  3. To add the objects to an existing collection, check that collection.

    Or

    To create a collection, type a name. Do not use the same name as one of your existing collections. If you choose an existing collection, an error message displays and the Select Collection popup redisplays so you can enter a different name.

  4. Click Done. A confirmation message displays.
  5. Click OK.

    If a selected object already exists in the collection, it is not added again.
