Using Automatic Change Management - Intergraph Smart Production - Help

The Smart Production Change Management feature uses different statuses for parts and assemblies when blocks with changes are imported to Smart Production. This section describes the automatic On Hold statuses when changes are detected in the import process.

There are three statuses that can be set to parts when change is detected:

Halted
Reject
Delete

The On Hold statuses are automatically set by the interface, but they can also be manually set by the user (see Using Manual Change Management).

The following change events trigger On Hold statuses:

Part is deleted from the block
Assembly or Panel assembly is deleted from the block
Part is changed in the design system
Panel assembly is changed in the design system

Change Event	Part	Assembly	Nesting*
DELETE - Part deleted from the block
Un-nested part	Deleted from Smart Production	Deleted from Smart Production if empty and not in design
Nested part	Status: Delete If all parts in nesting has been set to the status Delete and nesting is deleted also parts will be deleted. Nested or cut parts cannot be deleted.		If all parts in nesting are deleted also uncut nesting will be deleted, otherwise uncut nesting status: Halted
Cut part	Status: Reject
DELETE - Assembly deleted from the block
No parts in assembly		Deleted from Smart Production if empty and not in design
Parts in assembly	Delete part change event applied to all parts in the assembly. Nested or cut parts cannot be deleted.	Status: Delete
Welded assembly	Delete part change event applied to all parts int he assembly. Nested or cut parts cannot be deleted.	Status: Reject
DELETE - Panel Assembly deleted from the block
No parts in assembly		Deleted from Smart Production if empty and not in design	Panel nesting deleted if available
Parts in assembly	Delete part changer event applied to all partes in the assembly. Nested or cut parts cannot be deleted.	Status: Delete	Status: Delete (same status field shared with assembly order item)
