General Option
This option includes the following properties:
- Synchronize All Files During “Save”
- If this check box is selected, PLM checks whether the file header is consistent with the data in stored in PLM. Clearing this check box can save time during the save process.
- Ignore Items
- If this check box is selected, there will be no actions related to items from the integration.
- Disable BOM Creation/Modification during "Save"
- If this check box is selected, there will be no actions related to BOMs (bills of material) from the integration.
- Show synchronize message during "Save"
- If this check box is selected, the PLM integration for Creo will display the synchronization dialog box during save operations.
- Show Top Down Load report
- If this check box is selected, the PLM integration for Creo enables the user to open the report related to the operation.
- Enable Selective Checkout
- Use this property to enable or disable the option to operate selective check-out from the PLM integration for Creo integration.
- Automatically set resolve filename to New
-
When you save a new file to PLM and the integration identifies that a file with the same name already exists, the Resolve Filename dialog box is displayed.
This functionality allows the users to save the file with the same names to different projects without responding to the Resolve Filename option.
When you set this new preference with the combination of preference File Name Uniqueness” = false, the integration process checks that a file with this name doesn’t exist in the current project, and assumes that the file saved to PLM is the new one. In this case the integration creates a new PLM document without displaying the Resolve Filename dialog.
