Update the external status of a fabricate

When you create a fabricate, the default External Status of the fabricate is Preliminary. To use the fabricate in other screens, change the external status to Fully Validated.

1. Navigate to the s20017 Fabricate Catalogue screen.

2. In the Current Project control block, from the Project dropdown, select the required project ID.

3. To refresh the screen, select the F5 key.

4. In the Fabricate Catalogue grid, select a row.

5. On the s20017 menu, in the Status group, from the External Status dropdown, select one of the following:

   • Preliminary: Indicates the default status of the fabricate. At the Preliminary stage, the fabricate is not available for use throughout AVEVA Enterprise Resource Management.

   • Fully Validated: Indicates the fabricate is available for use throughout AVEVA Enterprise Resource Management.

   • Not to be Used: Indicates the fabricate is not available for use due to a temporary restriction (the supply of materials is restricted or alternatives are being evaluated) or a permanent hold (the material is obsolete). If the fabricate is already assigned to a Part List (PL) or a Purchase Order (PO), you can continue to use the fabricate. However, the fabricate is not available for addition to any new PL or PO.

   • Ready For Delete: Indicates you can delete the fabricate in case a clean up of the reference data is performed. At the Ready For Delete stage, the fabricate is not available for use throughout AVEVA Enterprise Resource Management.

6. (Optional) To revert the status update, on the s20017 menu, in the Status group, select Revert.

7. On the Home menu, in the Record group, select Save.

   The External Status of the fabricate is updated.
