Enabling As Stored Configurations (Creo Elements/Direct Modeling)
As Stored configurations are defined at checkin. When more than one CAD document or a drawing CAD document is checked in from the workspace, an As Stored configuration can be created. The As Stored configuration is a snapshot of the workspace at the time of check-in.
You can use the As Stored configuration to:
Reload the workspace in the same way each time the iteration is modified, whether working directly with, or referencing the checked-in iteration.
Retrieve an assembly using it’s As Stored configuration.

By default, Create As Stored is set to Yes in theWindchill Preference Management utility.
As Stored configurations are particularly useful when working with drawings and assemblies. It allows you to retrieve an assembly or drawing using the same related components that it was stored with at the time it was checked into Windchill. Otherwise, the latest versions of all related parts, possibly modified independently of the parent, are retrieved. This enables you to get back to a known configuration of a drawing or assembly.
Baselines also record specific configurations of versions or iterations. However, a baseline is a more formal method of capturing a configuration. It is a conscious decision to create an object that captures a specific configuration of components rather than just as they were stored at check in. Often, the As Stored configuration is used to generate a baseline at a later date. For example, it may be used to create a baseline of a set of drawings or assemblies that need to be reviewed at a design review. You would use As Stored since Latest may pick up some later versions of the underlying parts that have not been detailed in the drawing yet or some that may cause an assembly to fail regeneration.
* 
As Stored only considers data in the workspace at the time of check in. For example, if you are checking in an assembly which has 10 components and only 5 of those components are present in the workspace, then your As Stored configuration contains only those 5 parts. The other 5 parts are retrieved according to Latest configuration.

The Create As Stored preference is available in the Operation category of the Windchill Preference Management utility.
