Checkout Parent

Add UsageLinks

Checkin Parent

Hello @AA_9841156 

The point is that the method check-out the Parent for you if it is not check-out. then also does Check-In.

If you need to crate more links, with just one check-out/in then you have to check-out the parent by yourself

In the end of the link creation check-in the parent

// condiftion if object is checkout
UtilWorkInProgress.isCheckedOut((Workable) parrentWTPart); 


// example how to checkout and create a link
List<WTPart> checkOutWTPs = new ArrayList<>();
CheckoutLink checkoutLink = UtilWTPart.checkOutObject(parrentWTPart, "check-out", errors);
parrentWTPart = (WTPart) checkoutLink.getWorkingCopy();
checkOutWTPs.add(parrentWTPart);
linkWTP = WTPartUsageLink.newWTPartUsageLink(parrentWTPart, childWTPart.getMaster());
if (linkWTP != null)
{
	Quantity qy = Quantity.newQuantity();
	qy.setAmount(Double.valueOf(1.0));

	qy.setUnit(QuantityUnit.EA);
	linkWTP.setQuantity(qy);

	//save....
	linkWTP = (WTPartUsageLink) PersistenceHelper.manager.store(linkWTP);
}


// do not forget check-in the parent
