When you save the source and destination documents in Word, the structural changes are committed to Teamcenter.

When you commit the changes to Teamcenter for the destination structure in Word, the object that you cut from the source document and pasted to the destination document is:

• Added to the destination document in Word.
• Added to the destination structure in Teamcenter as a reference copy.

When you commit the changes to Teamcenter for the source structure in Word, the object that you cut from the structure is:

• Removed from the source document in Word.
• Removed from the source structure in Teamcenter.

Example

As shown in the source example, the Req1/A requirement is cut and pasted from the Spec1/A specification in the source structure to the Spec2/B specification under the Req3/A requirement in the destination structure. When you save the Word document and commit the changes to Teamcenter, Req1/A is copied by reference to Spec2/B under Req3/A in the resultant destination structure. The Req1/A and the Req11/A child requirements are removed from the resultant source structure.

Because this example shows the source and destination structures as being precise structures in Teamcenter, Req3/A in the destination structure references Req1/A. If the source and destination structures were imprecise structures in Teamcenter, Req3 in the destination structure would reference Req1.
