Do Users put the Revision Level in the Description or do they use the Revision Field?

 

 

ManEx encourages users to take full advantage of the nomenclature provided. The CLASS field, of 8 characters, is used for the top level of a part class, e.g. resistor, capacitor, etc. The TYPE field, also 8 characters, is used for a subset of the class. The PART NUMBER field, of 25 characters, is specific to a specific set of parameters for a part class and type. And the REVISION, of 4 characters allows for distinctions between revisions of the same part numbers. So fully utilized, there are a total of 45 characters to precisely descript an inventory part. There are a variety of additional fields to identify specific characteristics of a given part, such as the source, the material type, and several different cost structures.
