| Collections (ttpmc1503m000)Use this session to maintain collections. After you link the solutions to the collection, you must validate and export
the collection, which you can do using the commands on the Zusatzoptionen menu of the
session. Base VRC A means in PMC to identify products in a unique way. Updates at
the distributor side are provided with the base VRC identifier. A base VRC can
contain the code of the physical VRC in which the related master product is
installed, for example, B61_a, but can also be a code not related to a physical
VRC, for example, 7.6_a_tt. At the recipient side, every update VRC is linked
to a base VRC identifier. The installation process checks if the base VRC
identifier of the update matches with the base VRC identifier of the update
VRC. If not, you cannot install the update in that update VRC. Export VRC The physical VRC from which components that belong to a PMC
solution must be exported at the PMC distributor side. Each base VRC has an export VRC linked, so components for
different products are exported from different physical VRCs. Collection Code The code and the description of the collection. Collection Status The following statuses describe the progress of the maintenance
of solutions, Collections, and patches. To keep the descriptions readable, only
solutions are described. However, in each case, collections and patches are
intended as well, unless explicitly excepted. The status of the solution is only used at the distributor
side. A history of status changes is recorded in the Maintenance History table. To distinguish maintained solutions at the distributor side
from imported solutions at the recipient side, the status is cleared when the
solution is imported. This also applies to patches, but not to collections. The
reason is that a collection is not known as such at the recipient side. Only
the solutions contained in the collection are known at the recipient
side. In progress The initial status of the solution upon creation. Dependencies defined The dependencies between the various solutions are defined,
and the solution is ready to be exported. You must select this status manually,
because you might want to create dependencies that cannot be created
automatically. Exported The solution is exported. The system handles this status. You
cannot set the status manually. However, you can set a solution with the status
Exported back to In Progress, Solved, Completed, or Dependencies Defined. If
you change anything in an exported solution, the status is always set back to
Dependencies Defined, and you must export the solution again. Before you can
release a solution, the status must be Exported. Released The solution is released, which means that the solution is
frozen. You can no longer change anything in the solution. To release a
solution, you must change the status from Exported to Released, and you must
save the solution with this status.
