An Engineering Change Notice (ECN) is a formal document used in engineering and manufacturing environments to communicate and authorize changes to a product, design, process, or system after its initial release.
ETRAGE’s Viewer ECNÂ add-on provides a user-friendly interface to display ECN details: change description, affected components, implementation steps, approval status, and related documents (e.g., drawings, BOMs). It helps stakeholders across departments visualize and understand the scope of a change without needing to dig through complex systems or paper files.
FEATURES:
- Document Display: View the ECN form, including text, tables, affected objects, and resulting objects like CAD drawings and parts.
- Status Tracking: See where the ECN is in the approval or implementation process.
- Search Functionality: Quickly find specific ECNs by number. Direct access to ECN list table.
BENEFITS:
- Expands visibility outside Windchill.
- Reducing errors by ensuring everyone works from the latest version.
- Enhances traceability with a clear audit trail of changes.
