Identification

This screen is the starting point for part initialization. Use the Identification block to enter part identification, revisions, and the part description. You must enter data in the block before you can enter any additional part information. Additional maintenance of this screen is required only when you change information related to the part.

Field	Description
Part ID	Enter a part ID that is used throughout Costpoint as the main identifier for the part. If you enter an existing provisional part ID and attempt to save the record, Costpoint displays an error message indicating that the provisional part ID already exists.
Rev	Use this field to track multiple modifications or revision levels for each part. If the Allow Multiple Revisions For Each Item check box is selected in the Corporate Settings block on the Configure Product Definition Settings screen, you can store multiple revisions of the same part in the database at the same time. Costpoint treats each revision as a separate part. If the Allow Multiple Revisions For Each Item check box is not selected, only the last revision of the part is stored. If multiple revisions are allowed, the last revision assigned to the part displays by default. Costpoint uses the method selected in the Corporate Settings block on the Configure Product Definition Settings screen to determine the last revision.
Description	Enter a description for the part.
Part Security	This field is visible only if the Use Part Data Security Controls check box is selected on the Configure Product Definition Settings screen, which indicates that the part is subject to data security restrictions, as defined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). If enabled, this field displays one of the following values to indicate whether the part you are accessing is subject to part data security restrictions and whether you have the necessary authorization to access information for that part: Unrestricted: The part is not subject to data security restrictions. Restricted: The part is subject to data security restrictions and that you are authorized to access detailed part information. ***UNAUTHORIZED***: The part is subject to data security restrictions and you are not authorized to access or view part information. This value is displayed in red background color. Note: The features in this release relating to Part Data Security are intended to assist your company in achieving ITAR compliance. However, it is each company’s responsibility to confirm that it is meeting its obligations with respect to ITAR or other applicable requirements. Deltek does not warrant that use of this functionality will result in compliance.
