| When an ECO is created to change the Revision or Part Number then why wouldn't the customer part number be changed also? | Q. When an ECO is created to change the Revision or Part Number then why wouldn't the customer part number be changed also?
A. We can not assume just because you are changing the revision of your Internal Make Product that your customers are also changing their Revision for their part number. You could have multiple Customer Part number linked to the Same Internal Part number for different Customers all together. Again we can not assume that just because you are increasing your internal Part number revision that all Customers are also increasing their Revision.
Resolution: When time allows, ManEx will add a checkbox to the EBD/update-create records screen that is captioned “update BOM CPN Rev ”, and defaulted to true (checked). Modify the logic so that the customer part number for the customer associated with the BOM (as determined by the inventor.bomcustno) is automatically updated to match the new revision in the ECO (if there is one). But before proceeding, check to see if the checkbox has been unchecked, and skip it if it has been unchecked . Enhancement Ticket #1461.
