Cleaning Windchill workspace does not remove objects from AE 6.1 workspace

[kregimbald]

Since upgrading from AE 6.0 to AE 6.1 we have noticed that when cleaning the Windchill workspace the objects are not removed from the AE 6.1 browser workspace. The objects remain listed under the workspace name. We have to go into the browser and select "clean workspace". It appears that the both Windchill workspaces and AE 6.1 are no longer in sync. If The users do not clean the AE 6.1 workspace, they receive the following message when they try to check out an object. "The currently active workspace contains an out of date version of the document that you requested to open. Do you want to open the out-of-date version in the workspace?" Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a solution?

The "best practice" we have observed is to clean the workspace from Arbortext Editor and not Windchill. The issue is resolved. If someone knows why the displays are not in sync, please let me know.
