MPMLink Setup
Preference
The Manage Illustrations with Creo Illustrate preference under MPMLink Common Preferences > Process Plan Browser needs to be enabled within the Preference Management Utility on your Windchill MPMLink server. By default, the value for the preference is set to No. Set the value to Yes.
Publishing Rule File
To properly manage WVS configurations on your Windchill MPMLink server, you need to add a publishing rule file for MPMLink objects that includes a domain value specific to your site. A sample publishing rule file can be found at: /opt/wnc/MpmLink/ProcessPlanBrowser/src_web/config/actions/MPMSamplePublishingRule.xml, and is shown in the following figure with a sample domain value highlighted.
* 
You must edit the sample publishing rule xml document, change the domain value to the specific domain value for your site, and then save the file to a different location (your desktop) for later use. An error is displayed if the domain values do not match.
Your specific domain value can be referenced in the Type and Attribute Management utility on your server by selecting Dynamic Document in the Manage Types panel, as shown in the following figure (sample domain value highlighted in blue).
To add a publishing rule file for MPMLink objects:
1. As an administrator on your Windchill MPMLink server, from the Navigator pane, select Site > Utilities > Visualization Configuration Administration.
The Creo View Configurations for Site window opens.
