The Fusion Manage Extension is an inbuilt tool that enables you to manage the change and release of data,
00:09
giving you more control and visibility over data revisions.
00:13
This is particularly useful if you have multiple design collaborators,
00:18
have a need for change history audits, or need to easily establish changes during productions.
00:24
The Manage Extension provides a formal release process,
00:28
facilitates the management of Fusion design and drawing revisions,
00:32
enables collaborators toformally request a design change, regardless of their location,
00:37
and creates unique part numbers are created to differentiate designs.
00:42
To purchase the Manage Extension, on the Application bar, click Extensions to access the available options.
00:50
Here, you can also find a local partner to purchase it from and get support with the setup process.
00:57
With a project open, on the Design workspace toolbar, click the Manage tab.
01:03
Here, you see 7 tools organized into 4 groups.
01:07
Starting with the Assign group, the Assign Item Number tool is an automated and unique number generator
01:14
used at the component or drawing level.
01:16
After a number is generated, a record is created within your Fusion Manage site,
01:21
and is associated to the respective component or drawing.
01:25
In the Release group, the Quick Release tool is used to release a component without a workflow or approval.
01:31
Note that any internal components cannot be quick released, but top-level and referenced external components can.
01:38
The Release with Change Order tool is a digitized, formal, and standard release to production process,
01:45
to help with traceability and compliance for certification purposes.
01:49
In the BOM group, the Bill of Materials tool provides a structured and tabulated view of your assembly structure.
01:56
It shows all relevant property data available for each component and its position in your design assembly.
02:03
In the Process Management group, click Dashboard to open the Fusion Manage Dashboard in your default web browser.
02:10
The Dashboard is a central area for your Fusion Manage information, such as charts and outstanding work.
02:17
The Details tool opens Fusion Manage in your browser, taking you to the Details page for the currently-selected document or component.
02:25
If an item has not been assigned to your selection yet, clicking Details opens the Fusion Manage Designs workspace,
02:32
where you see a list of all your items.
02:35
Finally, Change Orders works like the Details tool, but for change orders instead of items.
02:41
You now understand how the Fusion Manage Extension makes it easy for you and your team
02:46
to view and revise changes through the design process, all the way to production.
