|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 07/15/2023 | 513774 - Packaging Method/Quantity Changing. The purpose of the change is to align , commanise and make the MLQ and DU global. As a result there is DU change, however the Fit, Form and Function remains the same. The Reason for the change is a corrective action, in that to reduce the incoherence caused between DU and MLQ. The Change is implemented by standardizing the MLQ and DU. | Download | |||
