Replace all occurrences of an item revision

To replace all the occurrences of a selected item revision in the entire structure, regardless of their position in the structure hierarchy:

Procedure Select the item revision to replace in the product structure. (Optional) Copy the replacement item revision to the clipboard. This action prepopulates the Replace dialog box with the item identifier and revision of the replacement item revision. Choose Edit→Replace.... Teamcenter displays the Replace dialog box. The dialog box contains details of the selected item revision to replace. In the dialog box, enter the item identifier of the replacement item revision. If you copied the replacement item revision to the clipboard, the item ID and revision boxes are already populated. You can change the identifier if required, but not the item name; the item name is derived from the item identifier you enter. In the bottom section of the Replace dialog box, set the scope of the replacement by clicking All occurrences in top-assembly-display-name and then click OK. Teamcenter replaces all the affected occurrences and displays a progress bar until complete. If any of the replacement actions fail, it continues replacing other occurrences and reports to the user after the action completes. You cannot cancel the replacement of multiple occurrences once in progress.
