The part Where Used page automates the process of listing all
parent assemblies of a part being changed, providing a tool for everyone
involved in the engineering change process to determine the full impact of a
proposed change.
Known as a
multi-level where used report. it provides information
required to implement a change that affects many product assemblies. If
Variant Management
is installed, a filter is available to include related products, features,
builds and product configurations, which is additional information displayed
with the part.
This page also lets you selectively view the related
items and specifications (CAD drawing, CAD model, drawing print) of individual
assemblies. Clicking the icon next to the part name expands or collapses that
row to show or hide the related items for that part.
