   Version FMEA.Note This command is available only when you use the Release FMEA Structure workflow to release the FMEA structure.

3. In the message box that appears, click OK.A validation message appears when the new version of the FMEA structure is created.

4. Click the History tab to view the new version of the FMEA structure.

All the associated system element, function, and failure representations are also changed to the next version.

A copy of the objects, which is equivalent to the output of a Save As operation, is created for all the actions from the previous version of FMEA in the new version of FMEA with the same status as earlier.

If the previous FMEA is generated from an item structure then the new version of the FMEA is also linked to the source structure and can be aligned.

Inspection Definitions & Requirements are now also linked to the new version of function.

All system element, function, and failure representations are versioned even if they are not in released state.
