We are currently working through an implementation of IFS Cloud and are running in to an issue when transferring new manufactured parts during our practice sessions.

Our current process includes the creation of new manufactured parts that may use some standardized manufactured components. We have released/transferred the revisions for these standardized parts.

Our issue arises when we use one of these standard parts in a new top part structure, new revisions of the previously released components are being created every time we release/transfer a new top part. We are currently selecting “Single Level Transfer” when performing the Engineering Revision Transfer Action, is this an unintended consequence?

If no new engineering revisions for the Standard Parts are created (Reuse the same Engineering Revision), then the Transfer Process should not create new Part Revisions for the already Transferred Parts having existing Part Revisions using the same Engineering Revision.

You would not even see these already Transferred parts in the “Engineering Revision Transfer Actions” page for the Site

In the Engineering Revision Transfer Status page, are these standard, released, buildable subassemblies showing as Changed in PDM Preliminary Rev Change?
