Using the Replace Command
The Replace action enables you to resolve an incomplete dependency by replacing a missing object with an object from the Windchill database. This action is only available from the information page of an incomplete object.
To replace an incomplete object:
1. From the information page of an incomplete object, select Replace from the actions menu.
The Replace missing dependent<Object name> page appears.
2. Select either Replace with existing file from active workspace or Replace with file from commonspace and enter or browse to (if commonspace file) the file name. Clicking Cancel returns you to the information page without replacing the incomplete object.
3. Click Ok to replace the incomplete object with the selected document.
All the parents of the incomplete object in the workspace are updated to reflect the selected object and the incomplete object is deleted.
* 
If the parents are in a Creo Parametric session, you are prompted to replace the objects in session. To persist the changes after replacing the incomplete object, upload the documents.
