Synchronizing a DVP&R with a DFMEA

You can choose to transfer data automatically from the FMEA each time that you create a DVP&R analysis. In this case, the logic is set in the interface style that has been defined for the project. You can also manually sync at any time. In this case, the logic is set in the Synchronization Options window.

Please note that the data is transferred, not linked. Changes made in the FMEA do not appear automatically in the DVP&R and vice versa. The synchronization functionality is intended to provide you with a starting point for the DVP&R by transferring relevant data from the FMEA. You can then make any necessary modifications and additions to the DVP&R.

The following data from the analysis can be transferred to the header or worksheet area in the DVP&R.

Model Year(s)/Program(s)	Model Year/Program (Header tab)
