Amend an accepted configuration

Copy accepted inputs into a new revision, re-evaluate and accept the replacement deliberately.

For supervisors

This lesson uses a fictional frame and a person with only the supervisor role. No result here is approved for real manufacture.

Read these instructions on any device. Watch or practise a chapter on a desktop or laptop, with a desktop or mobile application layout. Demonstrations use sample data and simulated scanners.

    Check the original and currently active release before choosing the rules for the new evaluation.

  11. Correct the width

    Correct the width.

    Change the width to 900 millimetres. The old result is not edited.

  12. Evaluate the configuration

Check the current record and your own authority before working with real data. An evaluation result never authorises manufacture.
