Define Template Part
Explanation
This activity
is used to define the topmost level of a serial structure template. A template part is identified by the fact that the part number and
revision of the record is the same as the top part number and revision. The
template part is somewhat different from the other levels in the serial
structure template and carries different information (to some extent) than the
other levels in the structure.
Prerequisites
The part that is to be defined as a template part must exist as an
engineering part revision.
System Effects
The topmost level in a serial structure template is
established and it is possible to create its structure.
