Transferring Data Between a DRBFM and a FMEA

Data in the DRBFM can be transferred to and from the associated FMEA.

Please note that changes made in the FMEA do not appear automatically in the DRBFM and vice versa.

Sending FMEA Data to the DRBFM

You can synchronize the document headers and/or transfer selected functions from the FMEA to the DRBFM. For example, if you want to use the DRBFM to evaluate the risks that might be introduced by changes to an existing design, you can transfer the specific FMEA functions that might be affected by the change as a starting point for the new DRBFM.

To send the FMEA header data to the DRBFM header, choose DRBFM > Sync > Get Header from FMEA.

 

To transfer selected FMEA functions, choose DRBFM > Sync > Get Functions from FMEA. You can choose functions from the current item only, or from the current item and all of its sub-items.

Sending DRBFM Data to the FMEA

You can synchronize the document headers and/or append selected DRBFM functions (and related records) to the end of the FMEA. For example, if the DRBFM identifies additional risks that may be introduced by changes to an existing design, you can transfer the specific information back to the main FMEA if desired.

To send the DRBFM header data to the FMEA header, choose DRBFM > Sync > Send Header to FMEA.

 

To transfer DRBFM records to the FMEA, choose DRBFM > Sync > Send Functions to FMEA, then select the specific functions to transfer.

 

When sending DRBFM data to the FMEA, the following rules apply:
