A confirmation message is displayed and the CAGE Code node is created in the information structure.
Create the CAGE Code-based Information Control Number (ICN)
You can create an ICN by selecting a pre-defined template or by using a local graphic file.
To create a new CAGE Code-based Information Control Number (ICN) illustration and add it to the information structure:
1. Open the required S1000D information structure, and navigate to its Structure tab.
2. Select the node in the information structure for which you want to create an illustration..

You can only add illustrations at the CAGE Based Entities level of the SNS.

The Insert New Illustration dialog box opens.
For more information, see Insert New Illustration Dialog Box.
4. Select the required language from the Authoring Language pull-down list.
5. Select a template in the Template drop down list (optional).
The list displays the illustration templates defined for the current product. Each template provides a defined page size for the graphic type, a primary content file, a blank secondary content file (if applicable), and instructions to the illustrator.
Templates to support the use of Creo Illustrate (.c3di) or Servigistics Arbortext IsoDraw (.iso) graphics as the basis for an illustration are available.
If you select a Creo Illustrate or Servigistics Arbortext IsoDraw template, a primary content file and a blank secondary content file of the type and page size associated with the template will be uploaded automatically.
For example, a Creo Illustrate template will provide a .c3di file as the primary content and a .pvz file as the secondary content.

If you want to create the ICN using a specific graphic file, leave Select a Template in the Template drop down list.
6. If you want to create the ICN by selecting a specific graphic file, you can select a Primary Content Source for your illustration.
You have two options:
◦ Choose Local File, then browse your desktop for the file to be used.
◦ Choose Windchill Illustration, then use Windchill’s Find Illustration feature to locate the graphic in your Windchill repository.
If you want to use a Creo Illustrate (.c3di) or Servigistics Arbortext IsoDraw (.iso) graphic as the primary source, you must select the Windchill Illustration option.
