View a session in other applications

View a session in other applications You can a session and its associated structures in other applications like Teamcenter lifecycle visualization, NX, or CATIA so that you can leverage saved filters and configurations for 3D visualization, design modifications. To easily retrieve a structure that you are currently working with, you save it within a session. The session also retains any filters and configurations applied to the structure. You can view a saved session and update the structure in applications such as Teamcenter lifecycle visualization, NX, or CATIA. When you make changes to a session, and then open the unsaved session in other applications such as Lifecycle Visualization, NX, or CATIA, the changes must be saved or discarded before opening the structure in the other application. You can save or discard the unsaved changes. Procedure Search for a session that you want to view. Click Open to open the session. To work with the 3D data associated with the structure, open the session in Teamcenter lifecycle visualization by clicking Open > Open in Visualization. Before opening the session in Teamcenter lifecycle visualization, you must first replay and save the session in Active Workspace. To make design modifications to the engineering BOM structure, open the session in CATIA or NX by clicking Open > Open in CATIA or Open in NX. The aligned design BOM is opened in the selected application. Engineering BOM Management ─ Usage, 2606 Unpublished work. © 2026 Siemens
