State-based Revision Sequences by Life Cycle State
The versioning schemes for Windchill PDMLink are identified based on the object type through object initialization rules.
For a specific object type, such as a part or document subtype, each object type can use a specific versioning scheme referenced by a scheme name.
These versioning schemes are then identified in an XML file. For example, the out-of-the-box XML file loaded with Windchill PDMLink is:
StateBasedVersioning.xml
This file contains the sequences and seeds (for example, NUMERIC and MILSTD).
 |
It is recommended to start with the same List-based or State-based scheme currently used. See Downloading the XML File or Creating the XML File for additional information.

To change versioning schemes, use the steps to load an updated XML file described in in the Windchill Help Center.

For information on setting up the state-based versioning scheme that corresponds with the Version Series drop-down list that is available for each state, see Administering the Versioning of Parts, Documents, and CAD Documents.
