Derived Output Jobs

A background job is created for each 3DEXPERIENCE representation if the derived format conversion is requested for the representation. This job triggers the batch process to generate a derived output for the corresponding part on the first come first serve basis.

Name Format for Derived Output Job

The naming conventions of derived output jobs are below.

  • Derived output job name format: DOJob_ RepName_RepRevision_TimeStamp
  • Derived output job title format:
    • In case of a 3DShape linked to a 3DPart: ReferenceTitle_ReferenceName_ReferenceRevision
    • In case of other representations: RepresentationTitle_RepresentationName_RepresentationRevision

Report Management in Derived Format Converter

In Derived Format Converter, a derived output is generated for the selected CAD object. For every conversion, a conversion report is generated. All the conversion reports that belong to the same job are grouped.

During the conversion process, a folder is created for each job within the CATReport directory. This folder contains all conversion reports generated while the job is processing and the folder is named as DOJob_{Jobname}. The report contains conversion details for all the iterations and error details, if any. The job conversion status is seen in 3DEXPERIENCE in the Background Jobs page. The log column of the Background Jobs page mentions the computer name and path of the folder where the reports are saved.

In case of SLDPRT to linkable CATPart conversion, if the SLDPRT has multiple configurations, conversion reports are generated for each SLDPRT configuration. All the conversion reports are generated in a single job process, and stored in the associated job folder. In the log file, the path for the first configuration is listed.

  • 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA design data, which have the polyhedral feature is not converted to the ExactGeometry linkable derived output.
  • When you convert 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA design data, which has the polyhedral feature data to the ExactGeometry linkable derived output asynchronously, the error message related to polyhedral geometry is added in the DWCConverterReport.err file. This file is generated during the conversion process, in the folder created for the corresponding Derived Output Job within the CATReport directory.
  • The status of the ExactGeometry linkable derived output format is displayed as failed in the derived outputs.
