Replace All Components

Explanation

This activity is used to replace shop order component parts with alternate components. The system replaces the components according to the alternate component setup. You cannot manually pick alternate components.

Prerequisites

Alternate components must exist.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, the main components will be replaced with the alternate components. When replacing a main component, the alternate component having the lowest sequence number will be considered first.

Note: The scrap component values on the Alternate Component will be fetched from its inventory part record rather than from the part it replaces.
