RELEASE DOCUMENTS

Use this screen to enter and maintain documents and to link documents to the parts to which they refer. Documents typically include drawings, parts lists, work instructions, test procedures, source control documents, and other documents that are used to engineer, manufacture and procure products.

You can add, maintain, clone, and delete a document on both the Manage Documents and Release Documents screens, but if you selected the Use Separate Document Release Function check box on the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen in Costpoint Bills of Material, you must use the Release Documents screen to modify document status, and make modifications or delete a document that has been released or made obsolete (document status is R or O).

Use this screen to create and release documents.

You can also access this screen in Bills of Material.
