Part-Procedure Relation Imports - ION Manual

Overview

The Part-Procedure Relations importer links parts to procedures, one CSV row per (part, procedure) pair. The part is identified by part_number + revision, the procedure by procedure_title + procedure_version, and the only data field is the required flag. Re-imports are idempotent: if the link already exists, its required flag is updated to match the CSV; otherwise a new link is created.

Columns

Column Required Description
part_number Yes Part number. Matched case-insensitively.
revision No Part revision. If omitted and the part has exactly one revision, that revision is used; multiple revisions produce an ambiguity error asking you to specify one.
procedure_title Yes Title of the procedure.
procedure_version Yes Procedure version. Must be a positive integer.
required No Whether the procedure is required for the part. Boolean field (see accepted values). Defaults to false.

Each (part, procedure) pair can appear only once per file. Duplicate rows are rejected. Procedure titles aren’t globally unique, so a (procedure_title, procedure_version) pair that matches more than one procedure produces an ambiguity error rather than guessing.

This importer does not support custom attributes. Any column outside the list above causes a validation error.
