  4. Our Global electronic system is called CRS (Change Request System), within the system we process various documents that are used to summarize all information that pertains to that document type ERD - Engineering Request Document authorizes the release of procedures, production and prototype drawings. Gathers customer, functional group and plant approvals. Identifies all impacted facilities and authorizes BOM activity. Requires addressing service, engineering tests, DFMEA, global and other issues. DEV - Deviations provide authorization for variances from the acceptable production intent on design, testing, shipments, bill of material (part replacement to prevent obsolescence or support availability), rework, part traceability, PPAP, recall and other conditions that do not meet production standards P&R – Process and Routing documents are used for supplier tool moves, line moves, tool refurbishment and component PPAPs. They describe and authorize a permanent change to a process and facilitate PFMEA and Control Plan document updates due to design change. GI - General Information notices are used for documentation, notification and confirmation of various engineering activity. CI – Change Issues are new documents used for information gathering and soliciting responses from selected individuals where posted and response dates are tracked. Responses can be used to support engineering decisions or represent concurrence from a supplier that drawings and PO’s have been received. IPD – Internal Plant Documents are new routings to be used for the notification and releasing of plant specific documentation. Very automated and simple to use

  5. EngineeringPart Release Process Improvements Note: A Change Issue can be used to gather and assemble engineering information prior to the initiation of an ERD. Essential Steps: All Parts Released in ERD and Notification made ERD Approval of Proposed Changes Drawings Completed and Registered (ERD Release) Part Utilization in Affected Mfg plants Global access to BOM information Continued

  11. Setting User Profile Select Facility from Change Facility Drop Down List (i.e. Plant) Select Function from Drop Down List (i.e. Job title) Change Password Utility (People Soft ID Or Email Address)

  12. Worklist, Search, Personal Calendars, Reassign, BOM View, ENG Part List

  13. Accessing the Worklist The Worklist supplies each user with “tasks” that allows the user to complete the activity indicated (varies with each document). Manage Layouts allows user to customize worklist, see next slide.

  14. Accessing the WorklistChanging worklist layout The Manage Layouts feature allows the user to change the way tasks are displayed in their worklist. Each column can be sorted or grouped. *Note: the recommended Default for CRS users is as Shown above and results shown below.

  15. Personal CalendarDelegate Task – used with a know time of absence The calendar allows the user to delegate tasks on indicated days. Look up another users calendar. Calendar will show users working days & If tasks will be assigned to a different user. Select days to delegate tasks, click delegate. Select User from list and click OK button. All tasks assigned on that calendar day will be reassigned to the indicated user. (New users name will now be written on that calendar day.

  16. Reassigning TaskIf you received a task meant for someone else you can forward to the correct individual Check the “Work Item Selector” box and select the Reassign button. Select User to reassign to, and click Submit, task will delete out of worklist. The approval page of the document will show user 1 reassigned to user 2.

  17. GroupWise Task Notification To access the worklist from your email notification select the “HERE” link

  18. Example Task A Task is sent to a users worklist upon their role in the Work flow. For example, when a user creates any type of CRS document, a task will enter that users worklist. The Instructions indicate their next actions. The CRS document “ERD”, is accessed through a Link in the Task You may enter Comments that will appear in the Task that is sent to the next user in the workflow. An ‘OkToTool’ selection will need a Checker and a Release Analyst. Just the Release Analyst for a ‘Standard Release’ selection Selecting Task Complete continues the workflow for a newly created document.

  19. Search options Windchill allows the user to search specifically for certain documents, reports, parts, etc. By entering a key word, Windchill will search for all documents including that word.

  20. Example Search Results Example search results for all Released ERDs originating in Aschau.

  21. Example Search Results Search on Part will give you results like below: Links to PartMaster Links to Spicer Links to Eng Part List
