Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I remove virtual assets in the RCM/FMEA?
In APM version 4.3.0, the ability to add "virtual assets" (RCM FMEA Asset) within an Analysis is removed. In 4.3.0 and latest versions, the concept of virtual assets using the RCM FMEA Asset family is now limited to the Template functionality. Hence, you can only add real assets that exist in the database via the Asset Hierarchy to an RCM or FMEA Analysis.
- Can I create a URL directly to the Failure Mode or Failure Effect levels in the RCM/FMEA?
There is no option to create a URL directly to the Failure Mode or Failure Effect levels in the RCM/FMEA. The only option is to create URLs to the analysis or the template. For more information on the URLs, see the Available FMEA URLs section of the document.
