Viewing supersedure

Supersedure allows you to view a graphical representation of the replacement history of a given occurrence in the product structure. Parts and assemblies are often added to and deleted from a product structure during its construction or modification. Some of these additions and deletions can be grouped together as a replacement action. For example, two added parts may replace the form and functionality of one canceled component, making a replacement. To view and manage the supersedure of the selected line, click the Show/hide data pane button , and then click the Supersedure tab. The supersedure tree shows the history of such replacements graphically, starting from the selected part.

Note Before you can view the supersedure of a component, you must create a supersedure that defines the replacement. You cannot create a supersedure in Structure Manager.
