Description

This field displays a short description of the ECN.

Status

This field displays the status of the ECN, which can be:

• Pending—Not yet submitted for approval.

• In-Approval—In the approval process, not yet rejected or approved

• Approved—ECN has been approved by all necessary approvers

• Rejected—ECN has been rejected by an approver.

• Documents Updated—ECN has been approved and necessary documents have been updated to reflect the change.

• Implemented—Implement ECN process has been run against the approved ECN and all necessary part, document routing and BOM information has been updated in Costpoint.

• Closed—ECN closed before implementation.

• Void—ECN rejected and voided.

Type

This field displays the ECN type assigned to the ECN. ECN types are defined in the EC Types screen in the Engineering Change Notices module.

Class

This field displays the class assigned to the ECN. Three options are valid:

• Class I—A change that impacts a configuration item’s form, fit, or function (part number change is typically required).

• Class II—A change that does not impact a configuration item’s form, fit, or function (part number change is not typically required).

• Class 1.5—Some organizations use this class for unique cases.

Priority

This field displays the priority or importance of the ECN. Priority codes are assigned in the EC Priority screen.

Reason

This field displays the code classifying the reason for the ECN. Reason codes are defined in the EC Reason screen.

Action Code

This field displays the code for the action that the ECN will perform on the part:  

• A (Add)—The ECN was used to add the part to the part master

• C (Change)—The ECN will modify the part characteristics

• D (Delete)—The ECN will inactivate the part in the part master

• R (Replace)—The ECN will replace an obsolete part with another part

• V (New Rev)—The ECN will increase the revision number of the part

• O (Obsolete)—The ECN will flag the part as obsolete

Original Part

This field displays the identifier of the original part that will be affected by the ECN. This field will be empty for records with an action code of "Add."  For lines with an action code of "Replace," the original part represents the part that will be replaced.

Orig Rev

This field displays the revision number of the part that will be affected by the ECN. For lines with action code of "New Rev," it represents the revision before it is updated.

Orig Part Description

This field displays the description of the original part that will be affected by the ECN.

Orig Status

This field displays the release status of the original part that will be affected by the ECN: "E" (Estimating), "O" (Obsolete), "P" (Pre-Release), "R" (Released), "S" (Phase-Out), or "U" (Unreleased).

Orig Part Active

This field displays "Y" (Yes) or "N" (No) depending whether or not the Original Part affected by the ECN was active.

Change-To Part

This field displays the ID of the part that will replace the original part. This field will be blank for lines with an action code of "Change," "Delete," and "Obsolete."

Change-To Rev

This field displays the revision of the part that will replace the original part. For lines with action code of "New Rev," it represents the revision after it is updated by the ECN.

Change-To Part Description

This field displays the description of the change-to part. For lines with action code of "Add," this field displays the description of the new part being created by the ECN.

Change-To Status

This field displays the release status that the change-to part will be assigned by the ECN:  "E" (Estimating), "O" (Obsolete), "P" (Pre-Release), "R" (Released), "S" (Phase-Out), or "U" (Unreleased).

Change-To Cage

This field displays the CAGE code of the change-to part to be added by the ECN.
