| Print Reference Designators by Engineering Item (tiedm0420m000) |  |
| Use this session to print reference designators by engineering item. You can print two types of report: A report that lists the reference designators that are linked to a specific engineering item. To print the report, click Print by Item, and enter an engineering item, or a range of engineering items. A report that lists the engineering items that have BOM lines to which a specific reference designator is linked. Click Print by Reference Designator, and enter a reference designators, or a range of reference designators.

Fields | Description
Print by Item / Reference Designator | The type of report you want to print: Click Print by Item to print a report that lists the reference designators that are linked to a specific engineering item. Click Print by Reference Designator to print a report that lists the engineering items that have BOM lines to which a specific reference designator is linked.
Engineering Item | An item in the process of development. You can define multiple revisions of an engineering item. Typically, the most recent revisions are still in a design or test phase, another revision may have been taken into production, and older revisions are obsolete. A normal item can only become revision-controlled when it is copied from the Engineering Data Management module.
Revision | A version or revised version of an engineering item (E-item) or a revision-controlled item, that is, an item linked to an E-item. Several revisions of an E-item can exist. Example E-item: Mountain bike E-MB01
Revision | Description | Status
--- | --- | ---
A1 | Draft drawing of bike | Not released
A2 | Drawing of bike | Not released
A3 | Parent E-item of bike MB01 | Released
A4 | Obsolete bike | Canceled
Reference designator | Indicates the location to insert a component on an item, for example, where to mount an electronic component on a Printed Circuit Board. Reference designators are often used in electronics, and can originate from a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) station. Related topics Overview of reference designators
