Reconnecting Links and Relations Manually

You can reconnect links and relations manually.

Important:

  • You can reconnect PLM components with another of the same type: a 3D shape with another 3D shape, a product with another product, etc.

  • When you reconnect a PLM component which contains published elements:


    • You can reconnect publication by publication, or select the new PLM component product to reconnect all publications with the same names at once.

    • If the same published names are found in the new PLM component, these names are taken into account, to reconnect links, otherwise published names not found still linked with the previous PLM component.


Before you begin: Open an existing product containing 3D shapes with links and relations between them.
