1. PDMLink Design Object Numbering
Configuring Numbering of WT Parts created via Pro/Engineer interface
Terminology Used by PTC:
Name, Common Name (in Pro/E)
Name, Number (in PDMLink)
Filename (various)
Also used: CAD Name, PTC_Common_Name???

2. OOTB Behavior Name in Pro to Number of CAD Doc (ok) Common Name in Pro to Name of CAD Doc (ok) Number of Model CAD Doc to Number of Part (with extension) NOT OK Name of Model CAD Doc to Name of Part (ok)
(Filename: prt)
(Filename: drw)

3. Relevant Config File Add True to indicated setting
AutoAssociateDropNumberFileExtension = True

4. Desired Behavior (With use of manual numbering):
Pro/E Name maps to CAD Doc Number, no change
Pro/E Common Name maps to CAD Doc Name, no change
CAD Doc Number of model maps to WTPart Number, no extension
CAD Doc Name of model maps to WTPart Name, no change

5. Configuration for WTPart Numbering from Pro/E Numbering (WTParts created and associated using Pro/E Option) File: cadxhtmlui.ini Key: AutoAssociateDropNumberExtension=true
WTPart Number is same as Number of Model CAD Doc except for .prt (or .asm) extension

6. Rreference: For. prt and
Rreference: For .prt and .asm having same Number: WTPart created only for .asm. requires individual checkin of .prt prior to .asm
WTPart is created for this .asm
No WTPart created for this .prt
