The out-of-the-box Product Design template includes object initialization rules that set different default life cycle templates and versioning schemes for parts, documents, and CAD documents than what is set out-of-the-box at the site level. This template demonstrates the use of simplified life cycles and state-based versioning. Unless you have overriding business practices that require unique rules, PTC recommends that to use these features, you modify the site object initialization rules and remove them from the Product Design template.
