Administration: Migrating Product Graphic Properties and Flexibility Data Model

You can migrate products with graphic properties and flexibility if they are created using a version prior to 3DEXPERIENCE - R2021x FD05 (FP.2108).

Note: When you migrate a product to the current release, the migration process automatically converts:
  • The graphic properties that are defined for the product only.
  • The flexibility that is defined for the product and its children.
    Note: Since flexibility and repositionable information must be specified on each level, the complete assembly is migrated.
Tips:
  • By default, when opening a product with legacy product graphic properties, a warning message is displayed. For more information about this warning preference, see General.
  • The Product Graphic Properties Status B.I. indicates the product graphic properties, and contains a command to migrate a selection of products. For more information about this B.I. command, see Product Graphic Properties.

Before you begin: Administrators must:
  • Upgrade the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform server installation.
  • Migrate the database to 3DEXPERIENCE - R2021x FD05 (FP.2108) or higher.
  • Install the 3DEXPERIENCE Product Structure Design client app.
