Hello,
I want to create a new document type to store analysis results. There will be several different kinds of files, some native to the various analyses software, some will be Excel or Word documents, others might be a surface, iges or step file. The fileswill be associated to a particular version of a CAD part and/or assembly. Icreated an 'Analysis Document' under Reference documents, but it is not showing up on the drop down in my workspace - although I have checked the access and it seems to be correct.
So, I have multiple questions:
1) Is a single analysis document type sufficient? Separate document types seems to be overkill, as the docs will have to be downloaded to be opened anyway. What about having the users zip them all up and storing the zip file??
2) What is the trick to making a new doc type show up in the workspace drop down?
3) 'Reference' document or 'Describes' to keep it linked to specific revisions?Although the results will always carry forward until a major design change is made...
4) Is the best approach to have the engineers doing the analysis create the WTPart in order to associate the documents? Wehave notgenerated WTParts in the past.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me figure this out! [Windchill 9.1 M060].
