Listing the Associated Activities of a Product
The List Associated Activities of Product command allows you to select a product from the PPR tree and list all activities that use the selected item.
If the current project is defined within a Manufacturing Hub context, the query is performed on all processes belonging to the project currently opened in DPM, regardless of whether they are loaded in the current session. The user will be able to specify the type of part consumption relation (i.e., Process First Processes Product, Process Processes Product, etc.) that will be used for the query via the Part Consumption tab of the Tools > Options > DPM Process and Resource Definition options.
-
Select one or more parts from the PPR tree or the 3D window, or from a list of search results.

Click List Associated Activities
to begin the query. The results are displayed in the List Associated Activities dialog box:
The List Associated Activities dialog box contains two tab pages.-
For each part, the Associated Activities tab (shown above) lists the activity that the part is assigned to, the type of relation for the assignment, the parent of the part (if the part is consumed through a parent subassembly or manufacturing assembly), whether the activity is currently loaded.
-
The Unassigned Parts tab lists any selected parts that are not assigned to any process plan with the set of relations defined in the Part Consumption tab of the Tools > Options > DPM Process and Resource Definition options.
The Highlight Unassigned Parts checkbox can be enabled to change the color of unassigned parts in the 3D window.
The Export to XML button creates an XML file describing parts that exist in process plans with relations as set in Tools > Options > Part Consumption tab page, as well as associated activities and their respective assignment types.

If a product is not preselected in the tree, all products that are not linked with processes will be listed. If the pre-selected product is linked with a process, then products of the assigned structure are also not listed in the dialog, even if these products do not have links to processes.
If you have preselected a product in the tree that does not have linkage to a process, then the following aspects will be taken into account for this product:
-
Is this product assigned to a structure (direct parent/child relationship) along with other products that are not linked with a process, then these products are listed.
-
If this product is not assigned to a structure, then the preselected product should be listed.
-
You can select a product in the tree and in the 3D Graphic.
-
To highlight a product in the 3D Graphic with the selected color, select the Highlight Unassigned Parts check box.
-
To reverse your selection clear the Highlight Unassigned Parts check box.
The picture below shows products that are highlighted with the selection color.
Changing the selection color to green, produces these results.
