Defining an Item Revision

Trigger:

Concept

The Item Revisions page enables you to define any number of revisions for an item and any
number of routing revisions for an item's routing. You can assign each revision a unique three
character alphanumeric revision identifier (such as A, B, B1, and so on) and a revision date. Use
letters and/or numbers to label revisions. Letters are always upper case and numbers may include
decimals. When you create an item or a routing, the beginning revision defaults to the value for
Starting Revision in the Organization Parameters page.
 
When you create or update a bill of material or routing, you can choose to create a new revision
or modify an existing revision. When adding new revisions, you must be sure that the revision
date you enter does not overlap with other existing revision dates. Revisions are time-stamped, so
you can determine the latest revision for multiple revisions defined on the same date. New
revision numbers must be greater than the revision number of the currently effective revision.
Different versions of a bill of material or routing can be defined within the same revision.
 
In this topic, you will define an Item Revision.
