Display the status of the causes of the revisions of the design projects over the past year.

The reasons for revision are specialized when deploying UDE system and cannot be changed. In the samples which are copied during the installation don’t have revision contents, so there is no data, but for example, it looks like the following.

Figure 11.

In the UDMS KPI, move your cursor over the chart to display the count of design projects in the corresponding cause.

      Figure 24.

      Depending on the part category selection, additional characteristics are added in the input fields. If you enter as much information as possible during new part registration, it will be easier to manage and track the part. Enter the part information as shown in Figure 25.

      
      
      Figure 25.

      Datasheet is a mandatory field because a library manager cannot determine the part shape without the datasheet. Any file format can be attached.

      
      
      Figure 26.

      A part can be used after requesting registration by hardware engineer and approved by library manager.

      Within this process, you can prevent the duplicated registration of a part and the inconsistency within the part standardization.

      
      
      Figure 27.

      You can search and select the library manager. Click Search and select the library manager. In this document, select the current user as library manager for convenience.

   1. Click and select Sort by part number to change the view mode.

      
      
      Figure 88.

      Then the list is sorted by part number.
5. Edit part.
   Using the Edit function, you can add, change, and delete parts for electrical parts. You can also add and edit the non-electrical parts such as screws, heat-sinks, and other mechanical parts which are not included in the design.
   1. Select View Mode > Sort by reference.

      
      
      Figure 89.

6. Part Change.
   In the BOM edit mode, if you want to change a part, only the parts which have the same footprint are listed on the table. This is because a critical defect occurs if the footprint is different from the original part.
   1. Select the C82 part and select Edit > Part Change.

      
      
      Figure 90.

   2. Search and select 0202-000035 part to change.
      Now C82 is changed to 0202-000035 part.

      
      
      Figure 91.

   3. Click Apply to apply the change information.
   4. Click OK to apply.
   5. Click OK to finish and the BOM is checked in automatically.
      You can check the editing history by part.
   6. Click of C82 reference to check the history.

      Figure 95.

   4. Select 0712-000061 part to add.
      Even though this part is not a mechanical part, for tutorial assume this part is a mechanical part.
   5. For Quantity, enter 2 and click Save.

      
      
      Figure 96.

      You can see the added mechanical part in the BOM list.

      
      
      Figure 97.

      The mechanical part is changed.
   9. Select the mechanical part and select Edit > Delete mechanical part.

      
      
      Figure 101.

   10. Click Apply.
       Then the BOM is checked in automatically.
8. Add and modify alternative parts.
   You can see the added alternative part in the BOM list. Once you finish the modification, click Apply. With editing alternative part function, you can add and delete the alternative part.
   1. Select Altair-Demo-04 > MAIN > 2.0 in the BOM Tree and right-click and select Check In/Out > Check Out.
   2. Enable the C82 part checkbox and select Edit > Alternative Part.

      
      
      Figure 102.

   3. Search the 0202-000038 part and drag-and-drop the part from the part list to the right box.

      
      
      Figure 103.

   4. After moving the alternative part, click applied.
      You can then find the alternative part is added to the part.

      
      
      Figure 104.

   5. Click Apply.
      Then the BOM is checked in automatically.
9. Export Excel File.
   You can export the part list as an excel sheet to check and distribute. The format of the exported excel is same with the part list page.
   1. Select Export excel file > All to export all data.

      
      
      Figure 105.

      In the lower-left side, the excel is exported.
   2. Click and select Open.

      
      
      Figure 106.

      The exported excel is like below.

      
      
      Figure 107.

10. Unit price calculation.
    By using the unit price calculation menu, you can estimate the total cost of parts and this information can be exported to an excel as well.
    1. Click Unit price calculation.

       
       
       Figure 108.

       You can see the unit prices and total price.

       Part unit price is calculated based on the estimated price of the part entered in the part information. In this design the price is not accurate because some parts don’t have a unit price information. But if an ERP system is linked with the UPMS, the price data becomes more accurate.

    2. Click Export excel file and open the exported excel.
11. Edit Variant BOM.
    When you proceed with a product design, the same product may be applied with some parts changed depending on the destination. In such cases, you can apply derivative parts to the same design drawing to create and manage BOMs for multiple destinations.
    1. Select Altair-Demo-04 > MAIN > 2.0, right-click, and select Variant > Add variant BOM.
