Administering the Numbering of Parts, Documents, CAD Documents, Managed Baselines, and Change Objects

Basic Administration > Administering Windchill > Contexts – Distributed and Hierarchical Administration > Administering the Numbering of Parts, Documents, CAD Documents, Managed Baselines, and Change Objects

Numbering schemes control how numbers are generated for parts, documents, CAD documents, managed baselines, and change objects. Each object class has its own numbering scheme.

For all Windchill solutions, a rules load file sets the initial numbering rules for documents, CAD documents, parts, and change objects. These rules affect the following:

• Documents, CAD documents, parts, managed baselines, and change objects created from within a product, library, organization, or site context (if Windchill PDMLink is installed)

Autonumbering must be turned on for the Dynamic Document subtype and its subtypes. See Configuring Products or Libraries for Dynamic Documents.

• Documents, CAD documents, and parts created from within a project, organization, or site context (if Windchill ProjectLink is installed)
