Physical Breakdown Changes (tscfg2140m000)

Use this session to view the set of changes made to the physical breakdown structure. The changes can be made at the parent item level and/or at the component level. The changes are registered using a unique Change Number. This session maintains the details of the Parent Item (serialized) to which the changes are made.

If the existing serialized item is superseded, this session maintains the details of the New Item and the New Serial Number.

If the changes are related to an order, the Order Type and the Order Number are also maintained in this session.

Note: This session is visible only if the Physical Breakdown Changes check box is selected in the Configuration Management Parameters (tscfg0100m000) session.
