I am trying to create a package and add the required contents into it but wasn't sure whether the referenced objects such as ICNs or DMCs automatically included with the package for a selected DMC. Any inputs on this is greatly appreciated.

Please translate TLAs. What is an ICN or a DMC?

ICN stands for Illustration Control Number. It's most often referenced within a DMC, Data Module Code,

I am fairly new to Windchill.  Our company creates ICNs and DMCs on Windchill for digital publishing. For a particular publishing, I want to include only the ICNs and DMCs that are required. So for a specific publishing, I created a PMC and added the necessary landing pages or DMCs to it.

On the package, I  added the PMC as the content of the package. The landing pages themselves contain the referenced DMCs and those referenced DMCs would contain DMCs or ICNs that are referenced by them.  Why question is would I need to manually add the referenced DMCs to the package or are automatically add to the package once the PMC is added?

 

OR is there something that I can do on the Packages action in the Set Preference utility to make that happen?
