Creating Generation using no revision

You can create an object generation for a PLM item using the Create Generation option. The No Revision Change functionality is applicable if the status of the object is set to Released.

  1. Access PLM Item (pdpdm1600m000) session.
    Note: To create No revision of objects for documents and folders, you must use these sessions respectively:
    • Document (pdpdm2600m000)
    • Folder (pdpdm3600m000)
  2. Check-in the PLM Item. The Status is set to Released.
  3. Select Actions > No Revision Change > Freeze Generation. The generation number increments by 1.
    Note: 
    • The Frozen field value is set to No.
    • Only specific data can be modified. The data that can be modified is controlled by the Entities (pdsnp0500m000) session.
  4. Update the required fields.
  5. Select Actions > No Revision Change > Freeze Generation. The application freezes the changes for this generation. The value of the Frozen field is set to Yes.
    Note: The application freezes the changes for this Generation and a snapshot is taken.
