Substitutes Subtask

Use this subtask to view current inventory information for any substitute parts for the part shown on the main screen header.

Costpoint checks to see if substitutes are allowed for the selected action message's part/project. If substitutes are allowed, it then checks to see if project-specific substitutes are defined for that part. If substitutes are not allowed, no substitute parts display. This information is defined on the Manage Parts screen in Product definition.
