Associate mapping rules menu option

In addition to saving the template, for which you have defined mapping rules, under a different name, as described in Associating the mapping rules to part files, assemblies, or drawings, you can use the Associate Mapping from the Infor PLM menu to associate mapping rules to files. Note that you can only use this option for files not associated to a mapping template previously by opening the template and saving the file under another name.

To associate a file to a template using the Associate Mapping option, proceed as follows:

  1. In Creo, open the file for which you want to associate mapping rules.
  2. Click Infor PLM, Associate Mapping. The PLM Mapping Tool dialog box is displayed, as shown below.

  3. From the Template list, select a template you created in Creo. The mapping rules for this template are displayed.
  4. Click OK. The mapping is completed when you save to PLM.

    After the mapping rules are associated, you can click Display Mapping from the PLM menu to display the current mapping rules.
