| Generate Patch (ttpmc1250s000) |  |
| Use this session to generate a patch. The generation of a patch only links a group of solutions to the patch. To link solutions one by one to a patch, you can use the Link Solution to Patch command on the Specific menu of the Solutions (ttpmc1100m000) session. After you link the solutions to a patch, you must define the dependencies of the patch to other patches, and you must validate and export the patch. To carry out these actions, you can use the commands on the Specific menu of the Patches (ttpmc1501m000) session. Note You cannot include solutions that are already part of another patch. Using the Remove Solution from Patch command on the Specific menu of the Solutions (ttpmc1100m000) session, you can remove a solution from a patch.

Fields | Description
Base VRC | A means in PMC to identify products in a unique way. Updates at the distributor side are provided with the base VRC identifier. A base VRC can contain the code of the physical VRC in which the related master product is installed, for example, B61_a, but can also be a code not related to a physical VRC, for example, 7.6_a_tt. At the recipient side, every update VRC is linked to a base VRC identifier. The installation process checks if the base VRC identifier of the update matches with the base VRC identifier of the update VRC. If not, you cannot install the update in that update VRC.
Patch | A unique identification of the patch in a base VRC.
Solution Code | A unique identification of the solution in a base VRC.
Export Date | The date on which the solution was exported.
Export Time | The time at which the solution was exported.
