Overview

The Manage Part Groups section is designed to allow Parts to be structured in a hierarchy so that you can better organize and track current part numbers.  An unlimited amount of groups can be created and groups can be created within other groups.  As an example, groups can be created to represent part type and then sub groups can be created for more specific detail. 

Unlike Equipment Groups, you are able to create a parent group directly under the primary node for Part Groups.  This is possible because parts are not necessarily Plant specific. You can have the same part running in multiple plants therefore being able to assign parts to an open group is necessary.

To create a new group to the system, Highlight the identifier that you would like to add the group to and click the Add button.  Assign it a name and click Enter. 

You can move the location of the newly created group during it's creation or at a later time by clicking the Modify button and using the arrow buttons on the right to relocate the group within the hierarchy. 

Please note that all groups built under a plant must have a unique name.
