Enter Classification or family attributes search criteria

Procedure Click the ... button to the right of the Classification box. Teamcenter displays the Classification dialog box. Click to open the classification hierarchy. Double-click a class name to select it from the tree. Teamcenter adds a line to the table containing the name of the class you select. Specify the system of measurement. The systems available (metric, nonmetric, or both) depend on the system in which the class is stored in the Classification Admin application. In the Property Name column, click the cell containing the name of the class. Teamcenter displays a list of all the attributes within the class. Select the class and attribute with which you want to search. Click the cell containing the = sign and select an operator. In the Searching Value column, select the cell and type a value for the attribute for which you want to search. (Optional) Click to create an additional search parameter. The lines of the table, each representing an individual search parameter, are joined by the AND operator. Click OK. Teamcenter displays the classification search parameters in the General search pane. If you select a single Classification class, you can further refine the search criteria to include specific attribute values. For example, if you select the Bolt class, you can then:

Procedure Click the Bolt line in the Family Attributes dialog box to define classification attribute criteria. Click Add to specify additional attribute criteria. For example, you can set two classification attribute criteria—thread=.25 and Lock_Wire=1. If your site has not configured Classification, you cannot search by classification attributes criteria.
