You will be prompted to select the file(s) you want to include in this ECO.
👉 Note: Bild will prompt you to add any related child files (e.g., referenced parts or subassemblies) on the next screen
4. Enter ECO Details
Provide the following information for your new ECO:
ECO Title → Give your ECO a clear, descriptive name
ECO Description → Briefly explain what changes are being made and why
Optional:
Click “Add Child Files” if you want to include any referenced child files in the ECO.
5. Create the ECO
Once all required information is filled in, click “Create” to finalize the ECO.
