Practice - Defining Alternate Items
Overview
In this practice, you will learn how to create a new master configuration record.

or test instance at your site on which to complete this practice.
Values for Group Name, Item Number, Revision, Type, Interchangeability, and reason
fields should exist in the database.
Tasks
Creating an alternate item group
A master configuration template definition that serves as a general model for a unit configuration
definition, provides the fleet operator an opportunity to define an optional item group for any part
position in the configuration. The alternate items listed in the master configuration template
allow you to derive a unit configuration that represents the ‘as-operated’ configuration of a fleet
unit. You can create Tracked item groups for association with master configurations, and Non-
tracked item groups for use in item compositions.
(H) Configuration > (T) Master Configuration > (T) Alternate Parts > (B) Create
4. To copy this item list to another Item Group, in the Edit Alternates page, click Copy. Enter a
new Item Group name and click Apply.
5. To submit the item group for approval, click Submit for Approval. The status of the item
group changes from Draft to Complete.
Note: You can copy and submit an item for approval from the Search Alternates page also.
Query for the item groups and select the respective options from the drop-down menu.
(H) Configuration > (T) Master Configuration > (T) Alternate Parts

approval and must have a status of complete. Select the item group and choose Submit for
Approval from the drop-down menu. Click Go. The item group revision is created.
