IMDS users have the possibility to identify supplier MDS updates when the supplier MDS is used within the user company’s MDSs. This feature lists supplier updated MDSs and names the specific owned or published MDSs which reference an older version of the supplier updated MDS. This operates similar to a "where-used" analysis, except IMDS automatically generates this content and it is displayed immediately when a user enters this screen and executes this search (default: search for all new supplier entries).
In the update screen, the user may search for specific IDs or names of parts, or filter the list for the MDS type (own/published/accepted). The search result is limited to 500 entries
