Workspace Lock and Unlock for PTC Windchill WorkgroupManager CAD Applications

[PatrickChin]

Based on this document on Page 149 https://www.ptc.com/view?im_dbkey=156302, I believe the enhancement should include locks for reuse CAD files based on:

• context/container
• roles
• states

like ACLs.

Most customers have:

• standard libraries
• purchase component libraries
• customer AML/AVL files

the opposite can be said, the ACLs should also have the permission to unlock.  Thus, similar to the conflict window, only some items that the user has access to their respective container, the user can unlock the item to have the ability to continue to modify locally.

We are seeing OOTB behavior of ProE where some configurations can only do so much:
