PartVersion
Note: There is a newer version of this specification see VEC 2.1.0
The PartVersion is one of the two anchors for PDM information in the VEC. All technical information about a PartVersion is contained in one or more documents. These describing elements are normally referencing to the PartVersion.

Attributes
| Name | Type | Mult. | Description | Owning Classifier |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| abbreviation | LocalizedString | 0..* | Room for a short name of the Item. In case of a document the attribute is wanted to contain its title. |
ItemVersion |
| description | AbstractLocalizedString | 0..* | Room for additional, human readable information about the ItemVersion. e.g. Buchsengehäuse 26-polig |
ItemVersion |
| companyName | String | 1 | Defines the publishing company of the ItemVersion. The companyName is part of the main identifier of an ItemVersion together with the corresponding number (partNumber or documentNumber) and version (partVersion or documentVersion). |
ItemVersion |
| processingInstruction | Instruction | 0..* | Processing instructions for the application of the part or the document. |
ItemVersion |
| partNumber | String | 1 | The partNumber is the major identifier of a PartVersion. The format is user defined and respectively company specific. Over all VEC-documents a PartVersion-instance can be trusted to be identical if the combination of partNumber, partVersion and companyName is identical. |
PartVersion |
| partVersion | String | 1 | The partVersion specifies the version index of a part (see also partNumber). |
PartVersion |
| primaryPartType | PrimaryPartType | 1 | The primary type of the part defines the type of the part (e.g. ConnectorHousing, Fixing, etc.) Since the VEC supports dual use parts (e.g. Fixing & WireProtection) the primary part type is necessary to define which specification associated to part is the primary character of the part. Therefore all primary part types correspond to a PartOrUsageRelatedSpecification (e.g. ConnectorHousing –> ConnectorHousingSpecification). |
PartVersion |
| isPreferredPart | String | 0..1 | Flags a part as “preferred” by the means of being a preferred part out of a group of parts with identical technical properties. The preferred part should be used, if the other properties of a couple of parts do not allow a distinct decision. (see KBLFRM-311) |
PartVersion |
| preferredUseCase | String | 0..1 | Defines the function for which the part was initially designed. (e.g. "Grommet for Hatch", "…passenger compartment",…) This is an important information for searching and selecting parts in the context of KOMP. |
PartVersion |
| aliasId | AliasIdentification | 0..* | Room to specify additional identifiers for the PartVersion. This field must not be used for alternative PartNumbers. It is intended for identifiers others than PartNumbers, such as human readable identifiers printed on the part e.g. a number of fuse or a relay. Therefore it does not have to be strictly unique. |
