Enabling As Stored Configurations (Creo Elements/Direct Drafting)
The As Stored configuration is created at checkin. When more than one CAD document or a drawing CAD document is checked in from the workspace, the As Stored configuration is created. The As Stored configuration is a snapshot of the workspace at the time of check-in. You can use the As Stored configuration in the following ways:
Reload the workspace the same way as the iteration is modified when the user works with (or references) the checked-in iteration in the future.
Retrieve the assembly using the As Stored configuration.
By default, Create As Stored is set to Yes in Preference Management. Create As Stored specifies to create an As Stored configuration upon checkin.

The Create As Stored preference is available in the Operation category of the Preference Management utility.
As Stored is particularly useful when working with Drawings and Assemblies. It allows the Windchill Workgroup Manager user to retrieve an assembly or drawing using the same related components “as it was stored” with at the point of Check In (as opposed to retrieving Latest versions of all related parts which may have been modified independently of the parent drawing/assemblies during design developments). This is useful to get back to a known configuration of drawing or assembly. Baselines also achieve the same result of recording specific configuration of versions/iterations. However, a baseline is a more formal method of capturing a configuration, which is a conscious decision to create a separate managed object that captures a particular configuration of components rather than just “as they were stored.” Often, As Stored configuration is used to generate a baseline later, for example, to create a baseline of a set of drawings/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 assembly to fail regeneration.
Note that 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.
