Summary


Details

Want to be able to change Item Rev while in NX doing File -> Save As to New 
Revision. Currently, having double clicked in the Item Rev field, the auto 
assign function populates the field with the next item revision in line. This 
value is at this point not possible to modify. 



Solution

The ability to change Item Rev while in NX doing File -> Save As to New 
Revision is controlled by Teamcenter and Teamcenter behaves the same in this 
respect, i.e. if you do File -> Revise on an existing item revision object.


Default behavior is that you cannot change the Item Rev brought forward by 
auto assign.


To be able to change the auto assigned Item Rev on the fly while you do Save 
As to a new revision (Revise), you need to make the following modification in 
TC RAC: 
- Edit --> Options 
- Press "Search" in the lower part of the menu 
- In the "Search by keyword" field enter AS 
- Select the parameter ASSIGNED_ITEM_REV_MODIFIABLE from the list 
- Click on "Edit" in the middle-lower part of the menu 
- Change the Value from 0 to 1 
- Click on "Save" 
PLEASE NOTE: ASSIGNED_ITEM_REV_MODIFIABLE is a site parameter so you need to 
perform the change as a member of the DBA group.
