CAD Document Limitations

Integration with Other Applications > CAD Document Administration > CAD Document Limitations

Effective management of CAD object imports between Windchill servers requires understanding several key limitations and best practices related to replication readiness, object overwriting, and data consistency to ensure successful integration and avoid import failures.

Below are the key limitations to be considered:

• Importing Objects Marked as Locked for Replication into the Workspace

• Incomplete Dissociation of Parts Marked as Ready for Replication but Pending Import

• Importing CAD Objects with their Model Items

• Importing CAD Objects involving Family Tables

• Troubleshooting Using Windchill Method Server Logs

• Usage and Reference Link Conflicts During Partial CAD Object Overwrites

• Warning Messages Triggered by WinDU FTValidator During Family Table Import

• Opening a Partially Imported Family Table in Creo and SolidWorks
