You must choose from the list of standard simulation categories in which the reference will be created—Product, Content, Specification, Internal Data, Results, or Validated Data. Custom categories are not supported. When the user selects a file, a new reference document is created in the selected simulation category. The user can select (or drag) from their local file system or from other 3DEXPERIENCE apps, such as 3DSearch.
