Inventory Template Part used when Inventory part is created from Project Deliverables

Hi ​@PIreland,

Inventory Template Part is used when you create new parts in IFS/PDM Configuration not in project deliverables. Planning data for these parts will be copied when new inventory parts are created in PDM Configuration. If you have common planning data for parts that you want to use frequently when creating new parts, you can save time by specifying a part with those parameters as a template part. This data is used by the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process and also in order proposal calculations in IFS/Inventory.

When you create new parts in PDM Configuration, you can select from among the template inventory parts to use for creating planning data for the new part. If you do not choose a template part, the part defined as the default template part will be used.

I was hoping that since PD ties to PDM in that engineering parts are required that PD would have also used the Inventory Template Part but, alas, that does not appear to be the case.  

Do you know what PD uses when it creates Inventory Parts?  Maybe it just takes the default values it finds in Site and Company?

Hi ​@PIreland,

I may have to say YES to that!
