Family table update reverts parts to generic in assembly

Family table update reverts parts to generic in assembly

I work on a pretty big creo\windchill network.

 

When our "librarian" updates a family table (say, adds a screw) on "the network", I have a "screw" from that family table in my assembly, I update my workspace and update in session, the screw(s) from that family table that I have in my assembly revert to the generic of the family table.

 

The only way to get back the instance I have placed is to close everything that uses that family table, erase not displayed and reopen my assembly. Which sometimes is a pain, with bigger assemblies.

 

This has happened for quite a while now. I am sure it is not this version of Creo or Windchill, it predates the current versions we are using.

 

Maybe there is a setting we have that is not saving family tables correctly?

 

Frustrating.

 

Thanks for any help.
