How can I update the default (*) routing from a set of alternates?  

 

For example, I have a new machine which is now the preferred manufacturing route.  The old machine is still in use and is a valid routing, so I won’t retire this routing and up rev.  I’ll create an alternate routing for the new machine at the current rev, but I want to make this my default.  

 

Using IFS V9

The only way to make another alternate than (*) the default is to use lot sized based routings so system will pick alternate depending on the lot size of the order. 

In you case I suggest you copy alternate * with the old machine into another alternate, and update * with the new machine.
