Copy Structure Revision

Explanation

Use this activity to copy some or all of the alternates of the source structure revision to a new structure revision.

Note: This activity allows you to copy a structure to a different site, and creates any components and/or component revisions needed to accomplish the copy. For planning structures, copying structure revision to another site or a part is not allowed.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that a part structure revision must have been defined in the destination site.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, the system copies some or all of the alternates of the source structure revision to a new structure (inventory part) revision. No serial pointers are copied; these must be manually defined. For the new alternates that contain components, the alternate will be set to the default state, as defined in Site/Manufacturing. If you check the Copy Attached Documents check box you will also copy documents attached to Structure Revision, Structure Alternate and Line Item to the new revision. The default value for this check box will be stored in the user profile.
