Inserting an Existing Reference

You can insert an existing reference in the Requirement, Functional, Logical or Physical category of the tree.

Important:
  • The Requirement category of the tree is read-only. You can insert an existing reference, but you cannot edit it from the Functional & Logical Design app.
  • The command can be used on a functional/logical port and on a flow/type, but it cannot be used on an implement relation nor a functional connection/logical connection.

  1. From the Edition section of the action bar, click Insert Existing Reference .

    Note: The Insert Existing command is also available from the context menu of an object or a category node (Requirement, Functional, Logical, Physical) to initiate a root model. The name of the command is different depending on the selected object

    A message appears asking you to either:

    • Select an object in the tree or in the work area. A Filter symbol appears under your pointer to let you select the object in the session.
    • Run a query using the Search field. The Search Results panel lets you select the existing object. For more about the search functionality, see the 3DEXPERIENCE Native Apps user's guide.

  2. Browse to select the object you want to insert, and then click OK.
