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.
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.
Sending FMEA Functions to the DRBFM
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.
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.
Synchronize the Document Headers
To send the DRBFM header data to the FMEA header, choose DRBFM > Sync > Send Header to FMEA.
Sending DRBFM Record Data to the 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:
The Part/Change to Design or Environment column will not be transferred because data in this column is exclusive to the DRBFM.
The Function column will transfer as function descriptions.
The Concerns Related to Change and Other Concerns columns will transfer as failure descriptions.
The Potential Effects of Concern column will transfer as effect descriptions.
The Potential Cause of Concern and Other Causes columns will transfer as cause descriptions.
The Current Design Controls columns will transfer as control descriptions with the appropriate Control Type (i.e., detection or prevention).
The Detection column will transfer to the first Control Type defined for the project and the Prevention column will transfer to the second Control Type. If the Control Type settings in your project differ, you can adjust them in the project’s interface style so that Detection is first and Prevention second.
If there are two controls per row in the DRBFM worksheet, any associated User Defined field information will transfer to both controls in the FMEA.
The Recommended Action columns (i.e., Recommended Action - Design, Recommended Action - Validation/Test and Recommended Action - Manufacturing/Supplier) will transfer as separate action descriptions.
If there are multiple actions per row, the associated Actions Taken and User Defined field information will transfer to each of those actions in the FMEA.
