Linked custom components
By default, custom components have an underlying link to the manufacturer's catalog. If you edit the details on the Component Wizard, the link is maintained. This means that if the underlying standard component is updated in a later version of PowerShape, the custom component is also updated.
Independent custom components
The Component Wizard lets you use MS-Excel to:
- edit the order codes (by selecting Edit order codes in Excel).
- edit dimensions.
In both cases, the custom component becomes independent of the manufacturer's catalog, and is unaffected by updates to the standard component.
