MPMLink Work Instructions

[GregOlson]

Can anyone assist with troubleshooting why we cannot see allocated parts on a work instruction with certain users?  Manufacturing Engineers are able to create Process plans and view work instructions without any missing data...but a shop employee with read and download permission to a Process Plan cannot see allocated parts.

I have to ask the obvious: Can the shop employees search for and see the parts in question (no MPMLink involved only PDMLink)?

[GregOlson]

Yes, that was one of the first things I checked.

Randy,

After digging a bit I realized that one of the MFG Engineers had set the top level related WTpart to Inwork, this was the issue.  So, always ask the obvious .  As the admin here I should probably go home for the day - rookie mistake.
