Adding a Transition Profile

The Add Transition Profile component enables you to create a new transition profile that maps parametric items to reference items. The profile can then be used to transition a parametric cost estimate to a detail-item cost estimate.

You can access the Add Transition Profile component by selecting Add from the Actions menu on the Transition Profile Overview component header, or by selecting Add New from the Actions menu on the Transition Profile Summary component header.

You can view or enter information in these fields:

In order to save a new transition profile, you must enter a valid value in the Parametric Item field. Click in the field and begin typing, or press Enter to display a list of available parametric items. When you select a parametric item, the system automatically displays the appropriate values in the Unit System and Unit of Measure fields. You can also choose to enter an obsolete date, if needed.

When you are finished, click the Save button. The system displays the new transition profile on the Transition Profile Summary and displays a message to confirm that your changes were saved. See Maintaining a Transition Profile for more information.
