Syncing to a twin station

During planning, you can update objects and attributes in one structure, and then sync the updates from the source to the target structure.

Process Planning for BTO/BTS/CTO performs the following tasks to synchronize between structures:

• Creates missing elements in the target structure.

• Copies attributes from the source line to the target line, including:

  Item—Name, Description

  Item Revision—Name, Description

  Occurrence—Name, Alias, Variant Condition, Find No

• Deletes elements with no links in the target, if your environment is set to delete obsolete twins. Note Contact your Teamcenter administrator to find out if your environment is set to delete obsolete twins.

When objects exist in the source but not the target, Process Planning for BTO/BTS/CTO performs the following tasks to synchronize between structures:

• Creates new objects in the target structure.

• Links new objects in the target to the correct objects in the source.

• If objects in the hierarchy below a source synchronization object are not present in the target, the synchronization process also creates those levels in the target structure.
