Generate a design structure automatically

You can generate a design structure automatically from a Usage BOM or from an Assembly BOM. After the design structure is generated, you can validate its alignment.You can automatically generate an aligned design structure from a Usage BOM or an Assembly BOM that already exists in Teamcenter.If the aligned engineering BOM is updated, you must also update the design structure. The alignment data is carried over to the updated structure.After generating or updating the aligned design structure, you can validate if the alignment is done correctly. In case of an alignment mismatch, you can realign the parts and designs and the part occurrences and design occurrences manually.
