Setting advanced search criteria for component

In this page you can define the search criteria that are to be considered while searching for a component. You can specify a unique number to identify the advanced search criteria.

You can specify the component family, component type and ownership, mod status number, assembly status, zone, component condition, next higher assembly, level and position code, user defined and component details as the search criteria.

You can retrieve the component that falls under particular component condition or component ownership, using this search ID.

Select the “Set Advanced Search Criteria” link at the bottom of the “Help on Components” page.

The “Set Advanced Search Criteria” page appears.
