Question

Edit or Rename Document Description

Good day Everyone

I would like to find out how i can edit or change the Document description once created in Windchill.

I am able to Rename the Document but I need to also change the description.

Now I have Documents with new or changed names but the description refers to something else. 

This can be confusing.

you will need to check out and edit the doc and later check in back , eventually add description attribute to edit layout

Ok but then I sit with a document on the next Revision for example it is A.3 and when I check it back it is A.4.

I never made any changes to the Document but only want to change the description in Windchill.

There is an option on the primary content to keep what you have and not upload a new file. Scroll below to see the description and make changes. In that case, you are only updating the attributes.
