Discipline Specs (S.50.06)- Window 9

This new functionality S.50.06 – Window 9, facilitates the user in managing Spec
data when working with Discipline dependent Specs. This shall be invoked from the
right mouse click menu item on Spec code in S.50.06 window-1. The user can work
with Discipline dependent specs by simply setting the project default
‘ZX_DP_SPEC’ to ‘Y’. If the Project default parameter ‘ZX_DP_SPEC’ is set to ‘Y’
then Specs from Non Login disciplines do not show up in all screens of MLCL
showing Specs. However, If the default parameter ‘ZX_DP_SPEC’ is set to ‘N’, then
all the Specs show up.

To specify a Spec as discipline specific, all that the user has to do is, just select the
Spec Code, Discipline from LOV and save the record. By default the discipline field
is populated with the logged-in discipline. The user may overwrite the discipline by
entering any valid discipline manually or by selecting the discipline from LOV.

By querying user can view the all the discipline specs for the logged in project
/product group, along with the details such as spec type, short description and
discipline. The user can also update the existing discipline of the spec.
