When creating the Manufacturer Part in the system, user is allowed to enter the Part number and the Manufacturer name. Assume the user has entered Part number as A and Manufacturer as M1 and has saved the data. And the system shows a Manufacturer Part A with Manufacturer as M1. When the user tries to create another Manufacturer Part with number A and Manufacturer M1, system should ideally restrict user to do so as it is a data duplication. But currently ARAS PLM system allows it.
How do i restrict it? I am looking to write a custom method to be called on the save form event. But I do not find such an event? How to implement this?

There's no need to write code to do this. Just edit the Manufacturer Part ItemType and turn on the Unique flag on both the item_number and manufacturer properties. This will create a unique constraint on the combination of these properties.
