Change Item Revision

A revision indicates a milestone in the manufacturing process of an item and signifies a point in time in the history of the lifecycle of the item.

When an item is created, an initial revision is created represented by a dash (-). After that, an item revision increments according to the format specified in the Choose Next Revision dialog box. The revision sequence is determined by the Revision Sequence dialog box accessed from the Lifecycle and Revision tab in the Administration dialog box.

The Revision History tab in an item record displays all revision numbers of an item and it's relevant attributes.

If an item in the Released state is added to a change order and the Change Order Requestor Allows Edit, the item's state changes to Work in Progress and a new revision is automatically created, unless the bump revision action is set to None in the Lifecylce Rules dialog box.
