# Manage Resource Parts

:lock: Resource.**Edit**
:lock: Resource.**Show**

## Overview

This operation is used to manage all the Resource Parts associated to a specific **Resource**.

## Setup

No setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

## Preconditions

* The **Resource** exists and is Active.
* The **Resource** has the Defines Resource Parts property enabled.
* If the Parts are Inserted or Replaced, the **Product** of the Resource Part must have the Part Type set to Repairable and the Part Quantity must be `1`.

## Sequence of Steps

### Step 1

1. Select an appropriate **Resource**, navigate to the **Parts** section, select the **Manage** button and then choose **Parts** from the dropdown list.
2. Add or remove Parts as needed using the :material-plus: button to add or :material-trash-can: to remove. You can also edit each Part directly.
3. For each Part, provide:

    * Product - choose a Product of Type Parts.
    * Quantity - choose a quantity. It must be equal or higher than `0`, exactly `1` if the Part Type is Repairable, and discrete if the Part Product is marked as discrete.
    * Designator (optional) - if specified, the combination of Product and Designator must be unique within the Resource.

    !!! warning
        The Designator is used to identify the location of duplicated Resource Parts. When a Resource Part Product has duplicates, a Designator must be defined for all associated Resource Parts of that Product.

        The Designator may only include letters, digits, underscores (`_`), dashes (`-`), and dots (`.`).

4. Optionally, enter a Comment.  
5. Select **Update** to complete the operation.
