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)
Out-of-the-box Numbering Schemes
The loaded numbering schemes for parts, documents, CAD documents, managed baselines, and change objects are simple Oracle sequences that have been loaded into the Windchill database. Each starts at 1 and increments by 1. This means that the numbers for all parts, documents, CAD documents, managed baselines, and change objects are autogenerated according to the numbering scheme that is in place.
Changing Numbering Schemes
To change an out-of-the-box numbering scheme, you can change to a scheme that is defined for you or you can define your own scheme. You can view the rules that are being used for numbering from the Object Initialization Rules table using the Object Initialization Rules Administration utility.
Object initialization rules can be set in context templates or by using the Object Initialization Rules Administration utility from within a specific context.
For details on how to change a numbering scheme, see Changing Numbering Schemes.
For the details on creating context templates, see Context Templates.
