Configure Engineering Change Notice Settings

Use this screen to define how engineering change notices (ECNs) will operate.

You can define the ECN ID scheme, how you want to conduct ECN approvals, and how you want to link Costpoint Engineering Change Notices with Costpoint Workflow. You can also use it to define how Costpoint Engineering Change Notices will interface with the other modules in the Materials folder. You can restrict modifications to Costpoint Bills of Material and Costpoint Routings by forcing certain modifications to be processed through ECNs. You can also have the system warn users whenever they call out a part or document that is referenced in an open ECN.

Set up this screen after initializing the system and before you create ECNs. You can modify the settings. In order for the modifications to take place, you have to log out of Costpoint and log in again.
