Catalogue governance

Govern item control attributes, immutable item revisions, Assembly BOMs, typed specifications and managed serialized-instance definitions without creating stock.

Screen orientation

Who can use it

Catalogue, BOM, specification and managed-instance permissions apply with classification scope. Independent decisions remain server-enforced.

How the screen is arranged

Select a catalogue identity to inspect stock context and revision history, prepare controls, govern a BOM/specification or register managed-instance lifecycle evidence.

Field reference

The entries below describe the current screen controls and read-only values. They do not relax server-side validation, site scope, classification handling or required independence in a governed decision.

Actions and effects

Prepare catalogue controls

When to use: For a draft item definition.
What it does: Updates the draft control contract; it creates no quantity.

Create / review item revision

When to use: When an approved definition changes.
What it does: Preserves the old revision and governs a separately addressable successor.

Create / release BOM

When to use: After exact parent/component revisions are selected.
What it does: Releases design structure only; Product Engineering must perform the later PLM handoff.

Register instance / lifecycle event

When to use: For managed definition evidence.
What it does: Creates managed-instance context without receiving, moving or issuing stock.

Lists and states

  • Immutable item-revision register: sequence, business code, state, checksum and actors distinguish draft/current/superseded definitions.
  • BOM and serialized-instance registers: show retained definition versions and lifecycle evidence, not physical balances.

Authority boundary

Catalogue governance owns definitions. It does not create stock, physical custody, receipt, inspection, EBOM/MBOM handoff, maintenance execution or ledger movements.
