Keeping Designs Current
Working with appropriate versions of objects is essential. In any collaborative environment, it is important to know that you are working on the appropriate version of your design, as design work may be shared among different teams. By default, your workspace preferences specify that you work with the latest versions of design files. Alternatively, you can set custom preferences to ensure that a particular configuration is specified. Status symbols in your workspace listing table indicate whether a current object version meets your specifications. For more information on object status, see About Object Status.
Explicit commands available in the workspace allow you to update your files if a new iteration becomes available in the commonspace.
What is involved?
Update—Brings workspace files current with latest iterations available on server.
Synchronize—Freshens workspace files with latest information from the server (for example, attribute modifications done by you in a standalone Windchill session).
For more information on updating and synchronizing workspace objects, see Keeping Workspace Objects Up-to-Date.
