Connector for CATIA V5 Access to Content

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform is a collaborative environment for managing your business processes based on defined responsibilities and content lifecycles that provide secure access to content.

This page discusses:

Responsibility

Connector for CATIA V5 uses the 3DEXPERIENCE platform 3DSpace baseline responsibilities that your business administrator assigns to you. The table below describes the level of responsibility for each role.

Responsibility Description
Reader Access Connector for CATIA V5 data in the project.
Contributor Has the same right as a Reader on CATIA V5 data.
Author Produce and manage Design Definition data such as, CATProduct, CATPart, CATDrawing. Has access to X-CAD Design Management's Start Design feature.
Leader
  • Manages Design Resources data such as Template, catalog and material.
  • Has access to X-CAD Design Management's Start Design or Create Design Template command
Owner

Add existing people to the project, modify role of people.

Administrator
  • Access to "ENOVIA Team Environment Administration".
  • Access to X-CAD Design Management's Global Preferences command.

Note: The Owner and Administrator have no specific rights for CATIA V5 Connector.

Your business administrator can configure access rules that change the default behavior.

On premises only: Your business administrator can change the default accesses to commands, content, and collaborative spaces. Companies can also implement customized roles and accesses.

This guide describes the default behavior when describing access to content or commands.

Your access to content or commands is determined by more than your responsibility. The current collaborative space, your organization, the current lifecycle state of the content, the app you are using, and other customizations all affect whether you can access content or commands. You might have access to some content or commands only under certain conditions.

Content Lifecycle

Using Configure My Enovia console, some predefined lifecycle checks for the X-CAD Design Management definition data can be activated to restrict maturity transitions depending on roles for the following object types:

Selected Object Type Designer Central Type Impacted
MCAD Assembly

CATProduct For Team

CATIA Embedded Component For Team

3DXML For Team

MCAD Component

CATPart For Team

CATIA Design Table For Team

IGES For Team

VRML For Team

CATAnalysis For Team

CATAnalysis Computation For Team

CATAnalysis Result For Team

CATProcess For Team

MCAD Drawing CATDrawing For Team
MCAD Representation

CATIA V4 Model For Team

CATShape For Team

CATIA CGR For Team

The following pre defined checks can be independently activated for each transition of the life cycle for any data type:

Rule Description
Unconditional reject The maturity transition is denied whatever the role.
Reject on Creator The maturity transition is denied for Author role.
Reject on Standard Data The maturity transition is denied if the data belongs to a Standard Project whatever the role.
