Parts List and Drawing are independently revisable documents.  That is, the
PL can advance without forcing a drawing change unless it influences the
graphics or notes.

In our Space business, assemblies are identified by the PL number and there
may be several different assemblies (variations) of a base part number being
built.  The PL number and revision letter defines the assembly.  Each PL is
uniquely identified by a different "dash" number but all refer to the same
drawing (base number).  Being able to  revise any one of the assemblies
(defined by the PL number) independently without affecting the others is
highly desirable.  This is how we do it.  This is basically how the CM
control has to be structured for all our Mil-=Spec work.  We only
change/revise a document if there is actually a change on it; not to keep up
with PL changes.  The cost of documentation change and control is high
enough without forcing needless revisions.

Your scenario (Rev: B) & (Rev C) are correct.
If you decide to make a new variation, then a new PN 1234567-2 would be
released at Rev. A, not at Rev. C

Subject: [TN] Assembly Documentation Question

The company I work for is going thru some documentation change discussions.
Below are the documents that are revisable. (The parts list contains all the
IC's, cap, res. etc. and documents.) The feedback I'm getting is the the
parts list and the assembly drawing should ALWAYS be the same revision
(becasue thats the way its always been).
Everywhere I've every worked, these are independent documents.

Here are my scenerio case: (All documentation released at Rev. A)

Scenerio (Rev: B): A  part number change, of a 1K, 5%  resistor to a 1K, 1%
resistor.
In this case, the part list and schematic would change, but it has no effect
on the assembly (because no part number or value is on the assembly
drawing).

PL1234567-1             Rev:    B       Parts List
        AW1234567       Rev:    A       Assy Dwg
        DS1234567       Rev:    A       Drill Dwg
        PC1234567       Rev:    A       Artwork
        PA1234567       Rev:    B       Schematic

Scenerio (Rev: C): The length of the screw holding the stiffener bar is
changed from 3/8 in. to 1/2 in.
The change is to the parts list only, the assembly drawing stays the same.
(no 3D view or side view)

PL1234567-1             Rev:    C       Parts List
        AW1234567       Rev:    A       Assy Dwg
        DS1234567       Rev:    A       Drill Dwg
        PC1234567       Rev:    A       Artwork
        PA1234567       Rev:    B       Schematic


The current discussion and question is;
-Can the parts list be independently revisible, from the assembly drawing?
-What do most of the assembly houses usually like?


Thanks for any response to this question.
