A Project Deliverable is a mega filter that enables you to combine a part or assembly filter with a project area to automatically create package deliverables. A Deliverable Definition is created at the Company level and associates a Deliverable with a Filter.
The first step in creating a project deliverable is to create company level Deliverable Definition under Admin > Company > Deliverable Definition. All projects will use Deliverable Definitions which is where you define your part or assembly filter and standardize the abbreviation used for numbering packages.
