This capability would add tremendous value for multiple use cases. We would also request adding the same link type column capability in the CAD structure browser. One use case that is very prevalent for us is having Part data and CAD data migrated into a combined Windchill environment from separate source systems. We attempt to create applicable associations during migration, but have unavoidable gaps. If you’ve built a CAD assembly it would be extremely helpful in the CAD structure browser to show both the associated Parts (current capability) and the link type (not currently available) to evaluate whether the associations exist to support synchronization of the CAD structure to the Part structure. The proposed capability would add even more value if it is available both from a "top-down" Part structure and "bottom-up" CAD structure view.

@PTCModerator  why ist that idea archived? It would absolutely make sense to find fast the correct CAD-Document in the part structure.
