This activity enables quick and easy creation of a part (which is not of type “Component”) in a single transaction.
A part is unique in an organization. It is usually created based on the illustrated parts catalogue. The original equipment manufacturer details, the design details, the basic and the physical data of the part are always unique for a part.
