BOM Revision Change in 8.03

Yes.

In .311, you can copy all methods from an old Part Rev to the new Part Rev you are working on or, in 403 & 404, you can also copy a selected single method under an old Part Rev to a single selected method you are working on.

Yes, you get the details for any other revision.

It's always been possible as far back as I can remember.

When you are in Engineering Workbench and have the new revision checked
out, right click on the part in the tree and select "get details:from
method/job/quote", then choose the part number and revision level you
want to copy the details from.

Absolutely. You can create a new revision from a previous revision/alt method;
a quote; or a job. This is just as true in 8.03 as it was in 8.0

Carey,

When you "Get Details" you have the option to get from a quote, method
or Job. Method would be ANY revision in the system. To get from a
quote or Job it has to marked as a template (in the Job), or marked
Engineered and Template in the quote to get from a quote.
