Hi,
Good day to all.
I have a situation that needs some advice on how to handle the same. We have been using Windchill for quite some time now. During our usage of BOM we have identified that the End product BOM always pulls for the latest version of the child parts irrespective of the version or state of the End Product. Will explain with an example now:
Say i have an End Product named "A" with below details
Part Numbers | Version | State |
A | 10.4 | Released |
A1 | 2.1 | Released |
A2 | 3.7 | Released |
Now the Product and Parts are revised for change as below | ||
Part Numbers | Version | State |
A | 11.0 | Inwork |
A1 | 3.0 | Inwork |
A2 | 4.0 | Inwork |
The problem is Now, when i go to old versions of Product A and retrive the BOM it displays the latest states of Parts irrespect of what state it was release then, example | ||
A | 5.5 | Released |
A1 | 3.0 | Inwork |
A2 | 4.0 | Inwork |
Is this how Windchill Normally behaves, i felt if this is the case then at any point of time no body will be able to retrive a old BOM.
Any help on this will be really appreviable.
