1) The preference View To Distribution Target Mappings takes a value of the form <View1>:<Number1>,<View2>:<Number2>,...<View n><Number n> where View1, View2, etc. are names of Windchill views and Number1, Number2, etc. are values of the number attribute of distribution targets. For example, the value can be Design:001,Manufacturing:002,Plant1:003. With such a setting in place, a distribution target with number 001 will be automatically assigned to a part created in the Design view, provided the target resides in the same context as the part and has its defaultForContext attribute set to true. See section Validation for auto-assignment for more information on when a target will be considered a candidate for auto-assignment.
2) The automatic assignment of distribution targets happens at the time of publishing the part (this is true for other object types as well).
