Insert resources into Process Simulate

You can locate a single resource or multiple resources and insert the resources into Process Simulate.

Note

You must use Process Simulate 14.1.1 or later to select and insert multiple resources into a study at once. If you use an earlier version of Process Simulate, you can select and insert a single resource at a time into a study.

Procedure

1. From the Process Simulate ribbon, choose View tab → Screen Layout group → Viewers → Resource Search.

2. Search for resources.

In the Resource Search, you can view items or item revisions. However, Process Simulate only adds item revisions to a work area.

3. In the right pane of the Resource Search, select a single resource or multiple resources.

   Tip Press and hold Shift to select multiple resources listed next to each other. Press and hold Ctrl and click each resource to select multiple, non-contiguous resources. A checkmark displays next to each selected resource. Click a resource once more to deselect it.

Tip You can also select an item from the results list to see a summary of its Teamcenter attributes and a list of attachments. Click Search Filters to return to the initial view and perform another search.

4. (Optional) To select all resources your search returned, click the Select All tooltip.

   Note The Select All tooltip displays after you select multiple resources.

5. Click Open in Process Simulate .

Note You must switch to the Graphics Viewer so that you can correctly position resources you loaded from Process Simulate.

The Graphics Viewer displays a preview of a single, selected resource. If you select multiple resources, the Graphics Viewer displays the Multiple Objects tooltip when you switch to Process Simulate.
