Question

Automatic Lock on check in

When I check in a part or assembly to Windchill I want to ensure that the Lock (read only) is automatically reapplied. I've configured our set-up such that all objects are set as read-only when added to a workspace, but once it is unlocked, worked on and then checked in, it remains unlocked. I haven't found the option to "relock" on checkin.

 

Is there such a setting?

Hi, 

 

The lock status should return after the workspace has synchronized. We are using the same process for auto-locking in SolidWorks. It should work the same way for Creo.

Hi,

 

Thanks. Unfortunatelly that doesn't work for Creo. Maybe there's a setting the Windchill config to change this behavior. I'll have to go back digging.

Ah now i understand what you meant.

And PTC has good answer for this question:
