Thanks Babu.
Hi Wassim,
I will try and let you know my outcome.
Hi Babu,
Thanks for your response. I did look up the help instructions but they are certainly incorrect. It believe the help text is mixed up with the update options at the top of the window, which function as specified, i.e. update the routings of the same item. The Search options cannot be related to this and whatever you do you can never get the candidate list to include routings of any other item. You can try it.
Thanks
Hi Wassim,
did you see this in the help about these 2 selections.
If you choose to update other active or planning routings when you update a routing, you can use these options to determine which other routings might be included in the list of routings to update. These options affect the default list of routings to be updated, but you can add or remove other routings, as needed.
Item Number
If you mark this option, other routings for the same item number as the changed routing will be included in the default list of routings to update. For example, suppose your company has four routings for its ABC widget. If this option is marked and if you choose to also update planning or active routings for the item, then all planning or active routings for this item also will be included in the list of routings to be updated.
Refer to How routing records are updated and Changing routing sequence information for more information.
Routing Name
If you mark this option, other routings that have the same routing name as the changed routing will be included in the default list of routings to update. For example, suppose your company has two sites and you’ve developed separate routings for the two sites because of differences in the available equipment at the sites. Each product has both a LINE A routing and a LINE B routing. You make a change to a LINE A routing because of a change in the equipment available. If this option is marked and if you choose to also update planning or active routings, then all routings that are named LINE A would be included in the default list of routings to be updated.
