Configuring structure export from Active Workspace to NX
You can configure how structures can be exported from Active Workspace to NX. When you configure, you can permit the Briefcase export and control how long the export notifications and associated Briefcase files are retained.
The administrator must set the following preferences for the site to set up the export to NX feature for Active Workspace:
Set the
allow_bb_bcz_export_importpreference to allow Briefcase export to complete the export NX data operation:<preference name="allow_bb_bcz_export_import" type="Logical" array="false" disabled="false" protectionScope="Site" envEnabled="false"> <preference_description>Allows briefcase export during Export NX Data operation.</preference_description> <context name="Teamcenter"> <value>true</value> </context> </preference>Set the
AWN0NX_NX_UnmanagedSitepreference to define the site to which you want to export the structure:<preference name="AWN0NX_NX_UnmanagedSite" type="String" array="false" disabled="false" protectionScope="Site" envEnabled="false"> <preference_description>Defines the name of unmanaged offline site for Export NX Data.</preference_description> <context name="Teamcenter"> <value></value> </context> </preference>Set the
AWN0NX_ExportNotificationsCleanupDayspreference to specify the maximum duration for which the notification message and associated Briefcase file are retained after an export. Example setting the duration for 15 days:<preference name="AWN0NX_ExportNotificationsCleanupDays" type="Integer" array="false" disabled="false" protectionScope="Site" envEnabled="false"> <preference_description> Specifies the maximum age (in days) for an export notification message and associated briefcase dataset, after which the export notification and associated briefcase datasets is deleted.
