Bind linked data
To bind linked data, a dataset with a .txt file imported into it must exist. In addition, you must be able to open this .txt file in an associated text editor.
Procedure
Detach the Work Instructions tab.
In the detached tab, click .
Teamcenter creates a placeholder for the link on the work instruction page.
- Save the work instruction.
You must always save a work instruction once to create the dataset before you can populate an asset.
- Right-click the placeholder and choose Bind.
Teamcenter displays the Bind Link Placeholder dialog box.
From the Transfer Modes list, select the ExportGraphic transfer mode.
From the Aliases list, select LinkedDataset.
In the Attachment tab of the Teamcenter window, select the text dataset and click Populate.
Teamcenter displays the link on the work instructions page.
