1 The Find Specification Assistant
On selecting objects from the specification catalog, it is sometimes difficult to find the specification object that matches the start object as closely as possible in the multitude of offered objects. The Find Specification assistant allows you to restrict the display of objects of the specification catalog using filters, and to select the specification object in accordance with the displayed attribute values.
The data is restricted by means of the filters defined in the device and pipeline type assistant. The individual filters can be nested to restrict the range of the offered specification catalog elements as precisely as possible.
Prerequisite
One of the following licenses is required to use the assistant:
· EB Basic Engineering
· EB Process Engineering
· EB Detailed Engineering
· EB Plant Engineering
· EB Plant Engineering (Campus).
The Find Specification assistant consists of the two modules
Using the Rule Designer, you can define filters that are to be considered for the selection of elements from the specification catalog. The display of the filtered data in the result table can be defined individually.
On starting the Find Specification module on an element in the Engineering Base Explorer or a sheet, all elements of the specification catalog matching the defined filter criteria are displayed in a results table and can be selected and taken over from there.
The defined filters are saved in the configuration Find Specification in the folder Templates/Configurations of the database.
