To Resolve a Component Placement Retrieval Failure
When a component cannot be placed because references are missing, you can do the following.
No Resolve Mode
1. Select the component in the Model Tree and click . The Component Placement tab opens.
2. Define the placement references and click .
Resolve Mode
The RESOLVE FEAT menu, and the Failure Diagnostics window appear.
Click Quick Fix > Find Component to open the File Open browser. Browse your directories to locate the missing component. Select and open the missing component. You can locate multiple missing components in this way.
Click Quick Fix > Freeze. The system then places the component (non-parametrically) in its last known placement. You can redefine it or change it later.
Click Quick Fix > Redefine. Use the Model Tree to redefine the location of the component.
Click Quick Fix > Suppress or Quick Fix > Delete to suppress or delete the failed component.
Use commands in the FIX MODEL menu, which is a subset of the ASSEMBLY menu.
 
The commands in the QUICK FIX menu apply only to the failed component. To suppress, redefine, or delete another component in the assembly, use the commands in the FIX MODEL menu.
After recovering from an error, save the new version of the assembly before exiting.
