Using the AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook in Existing Databases

Version 2020 of XFMEA/RCM++ added support for the AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook released in 2019. In particular, two new profiles have been added that have all of the relevant fields enabled and use names that correspond to the terminology used in the standard.

If you are working with a database that was created in a previous version of the software and would like to have the new profiles available for use in that database, you can import the profiles "DFMEA: AIAG & VDA-1" and "PFMEA: AIAG & VDA-1" from the default library file that is installed with Version 2020 in the ReliaSoft folder under My Documents on your computer (e.g., C:\Users\username\My Documents\ReliaSoft\Common\Library.lb20).
