Set preferences and environment variables

• IMAN_MEWorkInstruction_relation_primary Lists the object classes that can be pasted into a work instruction using this relation.

• AppInterface_TCPublishingTechnicalPortfolio_default_relation Defines the default relation used when a TCPublishingTechnicalPortfolio dataset is pasted under an intermediate data capture (IDC) while creating technical portfolios.

• AppInterface_TCPublishingTechnicalPortfolio_shown_relations Defines the relations available when pasting a TCPublishingTechnicalPortfolio dataset under an intermediate data capture (IDC) while creating technical portfolios.

• IMAN_PublishingPageAssetContext_relation_primary Defines which Teamcenter objects can be used with a IMAN_PublishingPageAssetContext relation.

• IMAN_TCPublishedPortfolio_relation_primary Defines which Teamcenter objects are used as primary objects with a IMAN_TCPublishedPortfolio relation.

• ItemRevision_TCPublishingPage_default_relation Defines the default relation created when a publishing page is pasted within an item revision.

• _DefaultChildProperties Determines which properties are children of the indicated technical portfolio type. Each type requires its own preference.

• _DefaultChildProperties Determines which properties are children of the indicated publishing page type. Each type requires its own preference.

• IMAN_PortfolioConfiguredPage_relation_primary Defines which Teamcenter objects are used as primary objects with a IMAN_PortfolioConfiguredPage relation.

• IMAN_PortfolioPage_relation_primary Defines which Teamcenter objects are used as primary objects with a IMAN_PortfolioPage relation.

• TechnicalPortfolioRoles Use this preference to define the roles of technical portfolios.

• TechnicalPortfolioTransferMode_IMAN_MEWorkInstruction Defines the transfer mode of the specified technical portfolio. TransferMode objects control the related data exported into a PLM XML document.

• TCPublishing_Default_Alias_File The name of the installed alias file, as described later. Defines the default alias file loaded when a new publishing page is viewed.

• TCPublishing_Aliases.IMAN_MEWorkInstruction The names of the available alias files for work instruction pages. If this preference is not set, the user can choose from any alias file in the database.

• TCPublishing_Activities_Role Defines the role of all publishing page datasets that are attached to activities in Manufacturing Process Planner, for example, IMAN_MEWorkInstructions (the default setting). The role determines the tab name shown in Manufacturing Process Planner and also how portfolios are generated. If you change the relation name defined in this preference, you must define a new closure rule and transfer mode to generate portfolios. You must also add the new role to the TechnicalPortfolioRoles preference.

• TCPublishing_Aliases.Activities Contains the names of the alias file datasets that appear when the user wants to load alias files for activity pages.

You should also ensure that the Dataset_DefaultChildProperties preference for each user contains the following settings:

TC_PublishingPageAssetContext TC_PortfolioPage TC_PortfolioConfiguredPage

These settings allow users to cut and paste publishing pages and portfolios.

The following environment variables are set during installation and you should not normally change their values.

• PUBLISH_PDF_TIMEOUT This environment variable sets a time-out period for stalled PDF conversions. Enter a number of milliseconds after which the conversion is terminated, enter 120000 for 2 minutes. If you require an infinite time-out, set this environment variable to INFINITE.

• PUBLISH_PDF_MAX_JOBS

Defines the maximum number of outstanding PDF conversion jobs that are allowed to run simultaneously. This environment variable is effective only when you publish a portfolio to PDF and select multiple PDFs.

• PUBLISH_PDF_INTERVAL

This environment variable defines the number of milliseconds Teamcenter waits before issuing each subsequent PDF conversion job. Set a value that ensures there are no conflicts between PDF jobs starting simultaneously. Typically, you do not need to change the default value of 1000 (one second). This environment variable is effective only when you publish a portfolio to PDF and select multiple PDFs.
