Define Interchangeability Codes

Explanation

Use this activity to define interchangeability codes which are used when defining position alternates and template alternates against the template structures. For each interchangeability code, a rule must be selected in order to define what is to be performed. There are five predefined interchangeability rules. Note: There can only be one interchangeability code per rule. Interchangeability rules are used when a part or a serial is installed in a serial structure.
