Field	Description
Engineering Change Notice	This field displays the ID of the Engineering Change Notice linked to the selected part.
ECN Rev	This field displays the revision number for the ECN (that is, how many times it has been resubmitted for approval).
ECN Description	This field displays a short description of the ECN.
Status	This field displays the status of the ECN, which can be: Pending: The ECN is not yet submitted for approval. In-Approval: The ECN is in the approval process, but is not yet rejected or approved. Approved: The ECN was approved by all necessary approvers. Rejected: The ECN was rejected by an approver. Documents Updated: The ECN was approved and necessary documents were updated to reflect the change. Implemented: The Apply Engineering Changes Notices process was run against the approved ECN and all necessary part, document routing, and BOM information was updated in Costpoint. Closed: The ECN closed before implementation. Void: The ECN rejected and voided.
Type	This field displays the ECN type assigned to the ECN. ECN types are defined on the Manage Engineering Change 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 affects a configuration item's form, fit, or function (part number change is typically required). Class II: A change that does not affect 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 on the Manage Engineering Change Priorities screen.
Reason	This field displays the code classifying the reason for the ECN. Reason codes are defined on the Manage Engineering Change Reasons screen.
Action Code	This field displays the code for the action that the ECN performs on the part: A (Add): The ECN was used to add the part to the part master C (Change): The ECN modifies the part characteristics D (Delete): The ECN inactivates the part in the part master R (Replace): The ECN replaces an obsolete part with another part V (New Rev): The ECN increases the revision number of the part O (Obsolete): The ECN flags the part as obsolete
Original Part	This field displays the identifier of the original part that is affected by the ECN. This field is empty for records with an action code of Add. For lines with an action code of Replace, the original part represents the part to be replaced.
Original Rev	This field displays the revision number of the part that is affected by the ECN. For lines with action code of New Rev, it represents the revision before it is updated.

Original Status	This field displays the release status of the original part that is affected by the ECN: E: Estimating O: Obsolete P: Pre-Release R: Released S: Phase-Out U: Unreleased
Original 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 replaces the original part. This field is blank for lines with an Action Code of Change, Delete, and Obsolete.
Change-To Rev	This field displays the revision of the part that replaces 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 is assigned by the ECN: E: Estimating O: Obsolete P: Pre-Release R: Released S: Phase-Out U: Unreleased
Change-To CAGE	This field displays the CAGE code of the change-to part to be added by the ECN.
