If Windchill MPMLink is installed and the preference Publish Common Enterprise Data Information has been turned on, then version information from Windchill does not come from the part. Instead, it comes from the associated Enterprise Data.
The attribute Distribution Targets (in the elements Destination and TargetID that appear in the ESI response) identifies the distribution target in which the part should be created or changed.
Windchill PDMLink passes the Part Date Effectivity in the format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.
When using the object-centric mode of publishing a part, with the distribution target attribute Publish Related Documents when Publishing a Part set to Yes, documents associated to the part are published as well.
