Workflow

Assigning and Naming

For any new or revised components:

  1. Add them to the MSXV Master BOM

  2. Assign a part number (the next available one in the BOM) and add a descriptive name

  3. Name the CAD properly: Part No. Part_Name (e.g. XV-BAT1000 Crossbar_Jig)

  4. Keep updated (active/inactive and in progress/released)

For example: if making a jigging component for the enclosure, a properly named part would be: XV-BAT1000 Crossbar_Jig. After assigning the part no. and name in the master BOM, the CAD would also be under the same name. If any major revisions are made, a new part number is assigned and Rev_# is added to the part name, like XV-BAT1010 Crossbar_Jig_Rev_2.

Slack Etiquette

Good practices to follow to make sure our Slack stays clean and readable:

  1. Post in public channels > limit group chats, DMs, and private channels as much as possible

  2. POST POST POST - keep a consistent communication across channels

  3. Reply in thread to keep organization

  4. Send replies in thread to the channel if it is important

  5. Keep each message/thread to one topic > this makes convos easy to read

  6. Add edits/updated to the thread

  7. Don’t @/channel unless absolutely necessary
