Engineering BOM Management provides a Create CAD Model/Create CAD Drawing functionality that can be used to create templates. Engineering BOM Management uses the Common Document Model (detailed in the Collaboration and Approvals Administration Guide) to create 2 objects of the same type, 1 with the name the user specifies and an autonumbered object. The user-named object should be used as the template. The autonumbered object does not contain any files and can be deleted so that it does not show in the list of templates. The autonumbered object should not be used for the Start Design process. X-CAD Design Management uses a different method for creating templates that should be used. Your organization should choose either Engineering BOM Management's or X-CAD Design Management's method for creating templates and consistently use that method. | |||||||
