Does revision of a wtpart can update the new revision reference in all its product structures?

Consider two  scenarios,

1. A wtpart with number 0001, A.1 is used in 7 different product structures.

By revising that wtpart to B.1 , will the new revision B.1 get updated in 7 different product structures as well?

How to achieve this?

 

2. A 2D drawing with A.1 revision is referenced(associated) by 15 wtparts. by revising drawing to B.1, will this latest revision updated on its associated wtparts also?

How to achieve this.

 

Thanks in advance.

1. No (but you will see the new revision of the part in those product structures when viewing "latest" BOM)

2. No, unless you include and revise the associated wtparts along with the drawing.

    Thanks for the reply  jbailey.

    Is this the same behavior in latest WC 12 also?

    Yes it is.

    If you need to update parent assembly you need to collect it in a revise wizard or change process.

    There is function collect parent

    Then collect CAD Documents and drawings

     

    sure you will need to update the parent assemblies with drawings.
