Structure Management on Active Workspace ─ Usage

Export and import structures along with worksets

You can export and import structures along with worksets to and from other Teamcenter sites.

A workset is a context collector for other structures. If your organization has very large structures with a multitude of occurrences, these occurrences can be collated within a workset to do a what-if analysis. But when you send the workset to another site by using a Multi-Site environment or a Briefcase, you might not want to export such a large number of occurrences along with the workset. Therefore, while exporting, the Include entire BOM option is not enabled by default. Consequently, the TCXML-based Multi-Site functionality works to share workset and related objects but not the product item or item revisions or their content.

Worksets also support site-consolidation activities through the TCXML-based Multi-Site functionality.

To export and import structures along with worksets, you can use:

  • Briefcase files
  • Multi-Site Collaboration
  • PLM XML
