When you select a sub-assembly in the Unit Genealogy gadget then select Replace Selection, the gadget searches for the Sub-Assembly Collection activity used in Production to record the selected parent/sub-assembly relationship. When the activity is found, the shop floor operator can identify a suitable replacement sub-assembly.

Important When sub-assembly relationships are created by joining the parent and sub-assembly in v7 then migrating it to FactoryLogix or by using the LoadSubAssembly or ReplaceSubAssembly xTend API methods, the Sub-Assembly Collection activity will not be found. When the activity is not found, the Replace Selection feature in the Unit Genealogy gadget is not enabled and the operator will not be able to identify a replacement sub-assembly. |

When you configure the generic Sub-Assembly Collection activity and it updates the relationship, only the sub-assembly UID will be modified. The original reference (and location, if recorded) value remains unchanged.
Note
All sub-assembly replacements are actionable through the Unit Genealogy gadget in Production, regardless of how the sub-assembly relationship was created originally.
