Viewing Intended Product Units

This task shows you how to view a build's intended product units or the product builds into which the build is expected to be installed. Product builds are end-item builds. When a product build is connected to a build, it becomes an intended product unit. Typically lower level builds are installed into higher level product builds. Product Planners, Manufacture Planners, Product Managers, and System Engineers can maintain the intended product units for a build.

Before you begin: Access the Properties page for a build. For details, see Viewing Build Properties.
