Hi @DKWc,

This can be achieved by assigning an OIR to the Mathcad object.
If only one object is involved, the Reassign Lifecycle Template action may be used to assign a custom lifecycle.

    Thanks for reply.

    When checkin Mathcad from the interface, it defaults to Dynamic Document. We already have Arbotext intergration.

    Thought a approach for creating a CADdocument template, however in case we cannot choose the .mctx (mathcad template) file.

    how can we default to a sub-type. Frist place where Mathcad should be dynamic/cad?

    Hi @DKWc,

     

    Could you please check whether any OIR is configured for the dynamic document?

    The lifecycle configuration can be controlled through OIR by using a boolean or case branch based on the authoring application.

    Please refer to the article below for more details.
