The Dimensional Parameter is not used to create the unique ID definition of the record. Therefore, you can mark the existing record as modified by typing M at the beginning of the record. However, because the valve operator is an output to the symbol definition of the valve, you must mark all affected valve part records as modified by typing M character at the beginning of each record.
-
Open the User Defined Part Class sheet.
-
Locate the record, edit the Dimensional Parameter value, and then type M at the beginning of the record.
-
In the Part Classes sheets, locate the valve parts affected by the changes.
-
At the beginning of each affected valve part record, type M.
-
Bulkload the spreadsheet, and review the log file.
-
Use the Catalog Checker to review the impact of the proposed changes.
-
Because editing the Dimensional Parameter impacts the modeled objects, use Synchronize Model with Catalog Command to mark the out-of-date objects.
-
Use the Synchronize Workspace with Catalog Command to update the objects.
-
Verify your changes, and resolve any discrepancies.
Use a SQL statement to find all affected valves. See Edit the Valve Operator Part Number in the Piping Commodity Material Control Data Sheet.
