Asker | Question | answer |
Peyton McKee | Is manufacturer PIN the same as part number | Should be Manufacturer Part Number / PN |
Peyton McKee | What does add Assembly button go to | Assembly is just a name it would be a popup like adding a vendor |
Peyton McKee | What is the point of the move up and move down functionality | Maybe change to switch assembly button |
Walter | Could we be able to click on subtotal and sort by price | yes |
Peyton McKee | What are the most important / identifiable aspects of each BOM | Manufacturer Part Number, Name |
Reid Chandler | Is there any information that is not necessary to display in the table and would be better to be displayed in a pop up | Links potentially and notes could be moved to a popup and not included in the table |
Peyton McKee | Is there any way to use BOMs to track component use like adding an in use status or something | Delete Put Away and instead just use received |
Peyton McKee | What does editing a BOM look like | In line preferable, notes and link would be editable from the popup like tasks |
Reid Chandler | Do we have a set # of manufacturers | Can make it a model that is very easy to add to (make it an autocomplete that makes a new manufacturer if it doesn’t exist) |
Sofia Varner (missed design review; looking at doc 9/10) | What is the title “property” from? It might make more sense to title this “type”; property sounds more like you’re labeling who it belongs to | It was just the way the excel was made but I agree, it was always a weird name. Will change it |
Sofia Varner | Is it possible for WBS to only let you put in a project number and not work packages? It gets kind of tricky in mechanical trying to link parts to a specific work package and if some stuff is linked to proj and some to WP it might be confusing and hard to sort stuff | Walter question I agree that it makes more sense to tie BOMs to a project rather than a WP |
Sofia Varner | What is the default way that parts are ordered? | unordered at top, organize by status |
Sofia Varner | Can the colors for status be changed? I think it makes more sense for unordered to be red, ordered to be orange, shipped to be yellow | yes |
Sofia Varner | What’s the difference between suggest budget increase and putting in a CR to increase budget? | A suggest budget increase gives a user a direct way into changing the budget and reducing clicks. This would also help pre filling in a CR information as thats what the page opens to |
Sofia Varner | not all parts have links; I think this field should stay required but should have the option to say “N/A” or something | Cool |
Sofia Varner | Could there also be a spot in the new entry menu to put in an NER PN (to put in the title of the part in PDM)? this could be an optional field since not all parts have one | Sofia VarnerI’ll take a look into whether this is viable from a design point of view |
Could there be an additional way to add a new assembly outside of the new entry pop up? | add to action | |
Sofia Varner | In response to Reid’s question, I wouldn’t move links because that’s one of the most used features of a BOM and if it’s not super easy to find that could get frustrating. Maybe instead it could just show an icon or something like a globe that you could click on and it would take you to the part’s link so it doesn’t take up so much space in the table? | Heard, I like that idea, we will keep links and maybe do smthn like that |
Sofia Varner | I’d keep both received and put away status; received means it is at someone’s apartment or on the receiving shelf, put away means it has been put in a project bin or is in use. | The concern with this one is that people aren’t likely to update this every time in Finishline, so if we include both, the status is more likely to just be wrong. If you think it’s worth keeping both given that, I’m fine with having both |
