3.3 Managing standard tables
Purpose
The administration of data in standard tables is part of the standard functionality of COMOS.
Standard tables are used for the following reasons in the PipeSpec Designer:
●
It facilitates or forces the selection of certain attribute values.
● To administer parameters and their characteristics.
You can find more information on this topic in the "COMOS Platform Administration" manual,
keyword "Administration of standard tables".
Database
The standard tables that are necessary for work with PipeSpec Designer can be found under
the following nodes.
● Standard-dependent standard tables:
"Standard tables > Y10 > M20 > Y30 > A10 System standard depending tables"
● Standard-independent standard tables:
"Standard tables > Y10 > M23 PipeSpec Designer"

Definition of parameters (Page 17)
3.3.1 Parameters dependent upon on the system of standards
Some parameters must comply with the following regulations for the configuration of a pipe
part:
● The values listed for selection shall always be determined by the system of standards.
● If, on the "Attributes > Part description" tab in the "Y00A00038 NSys" attribute, the user
changes the system of standards to pipe parts in the pipe part catalog, there is an automatic
switch to the standard tables of the corresponding system of standards.
To meet this requirement, two attributes must be managed:
● The "Y00T00060.Y00A00038 NSys" attribute:
It defines which system of standards applies.
● The dependent attribute:
Its values vary within the framework specified by the system of standards.
