* 
This action is available only for products or libraries.
Add to > Add to Hot Links
Add a link for each selected row to the Hot Links folder in your My Notebook table. For more information, see Notebooks.
Add to > Add to Managed Collection

Add to > Add to Package
Add the object to a package. You can add to an existing package or create a new package containing the selected object. For more information, see Packages.
Add to > Add to Project

Sharing allows an object located in a product or library to appear in a project. For more information, see Exchanging Data Between Contexts.
Add to > Add to Workspace
Add the selected object to a specified workspace. For more information, see Workspace Page Functionality.
Check In
Open a checkin window for an object that you have checked out.
The checkin operation saves the modifications you have made to the object in the system and also iterates the object. For example, from A.1 to A.2. For more information, see Checking In an Object.
Check Out
Checks out the object to you, locking it to prevent modification by others. You can then undo the checkout or check in the modifications you have made to the object. For more information, see Checking Out an Object
Check Out and Download
Reserve the document and also save a copy of the file to your default file path folder. This copy is separate from the local version that is automatically created when you open a Windchill document.
* 
If you open Windchill in a browser to download the document, then selecting Check Out and Download only checks out the document. The local version is already saved to your default file path.
Check Out and Edit
Reserve the document and open the Edit window, where you can edit certain Windchill attributes.
Check out to workspace
Collect and configure an entire set of objects for checkout to a workspace. For more information, see Checking Out Objects from the Workspace.
