Update (AutoCAD)
This section describes the Update action available from your CAD application, and from Windchill.
In most cases, you work with the latest copies of objects from the server. However, in some cases you can work with objects that are downloaded to your workspace and are not checked out. If changes occur to the object on the Windchill server, the objects in your workspace become out-of-date. When this occurs, you must update the object data in your workspace with the data from your Windchill server. This process is called Update. You also use Update when you have defined a more specific configuration specification for your workspace, and then use Update to ensure that the data in your workspace conforms with the configuration specification of the workspace. Update aligns the versions of objects you have in session with your primary workspace in accordance with your workspace configuration specification. For example, say that a workspace configuration specification is LATEST, and you have version A.2 of an object added to a workspace. In the meantime, a different user has checked out this object and checked in version A.3, Update identifies your object as being out-of-date. It gives you the option of bringing the A.3 (latest) version into the workspace. (A workspace preference allows you to set the defaults used for this action.) Update is always one-directional and begins from the server to replace what is in session in the workspace. The next graphic illustrates the information flow for Update.
Update is available from the Windchill menu in your CAD application, or from three areas in Windchill. To access Update, use one of the following options:
The Windchill menu in your CAD application.
The Windchill workspace File menu.
The update icon on the workspace Object List table toolbar.
* 
If the Out Of Date and Out Of Date With Workspace Configuration columns are displayed in the workspace, each time the workspace is refreshed, Windchill checks the workspace contents for objects that are out-of-date with respect to the workspace configuration specification. Notification is provided when an object goes out-of-date. These columns are not displayed by default, since performing this check on each refresh slows down the workspace refresh.
