Analysis Results in Product Data Management
When you run Creo Simulate in native mode and you are working online, you can use Run > Vault Results on the Analyses and Design Studies dialog box to save the entire results directory including a snapshot of the Creo Parametric model, to a compressed results file in the PDM workspace. The compressed results file has the file extension .mrs. This option is only available when an analysis is complete and the model is checked in.
You can export the compressed results file to a local directory.
Windchill also creates a derived link from the results file to the last checked in version of the model. The link is for bookkeeping and search purposes only and does not result in simultaneous downloads of the referenced model. The link only indicates that a particular version of the results were created with a particular version of the model. If any user changes the model downstream and vaults a new set of results, the results will reference a new version of the model.
The following figure shows how you can have a model with different versions and run and save analyses for different versions of the model.
* 
The derived link of the results document will point to the latest checked in version of the model irrespective of which version was used to create the results document.
The compressed results directory is listed in the workspace with the Creo Simulate results icon .
