Set effectivity for a signal revision
Effectivity allows revisions of functions and signals to coexist in an imprecise structure. You can set the effectivity for a selected signal revision so that it can be used by a specific function revision.
Note
The signal revision must be released through the TCM Release Process workflow process template in the New Process dialog box.
Procedure
- In Systems Engineering, select the signal revision and choose Tools→Effectivity→Revision Effectivity. The Effectivity dialog box is displayed.
- Select the corresponding release status, and then click Create. The Release Status Effectivity dialog box is displayed.
- Under Effectivity Range, use the calendar to select the dates in the From Date and To Date columns.
- Click OK.
The Revision Effectivity column displays the data for the signal.
