Define the Structure Position to remove
Explanation
A modification can cause one or more structure positions in a template
structure to become invalid. This activity is used to record these structure
changes on the relevant modification revision.
Note that the template structure will not be updated automatically. Instead,
you need to manually remove the structure position(s) from the template
structure using either the Serial Structure Template
window or the Template Structure Navigator
window. For more information, refer the
Remove Structure
Position activity.
Prerequisites
- The modification revision must exist in the Preliminary status.
- The structure position that is to be removed must exist in the
template structure.
System Effects
- Invalid structure positions can be removed from the template structure.
To remove a template structure position, all serials and parts must be
disconnected from this position in all corresponding serial structures.
- Once the modification is activated, the structure position is considered
a removed structure position even though it might not have been removed from
the template structure as yet. Removed structure positions will not be
considered as part of the standard structure.
