Importing and exporting structures and items

Importing and exporting collaboration contexts using Multi-Site Collaboration

You can use Multi-Site Collaboration to share structures with other sites. If you use it to share collaboration context objects, take the following into consideration:

  • When using saved revision rules, export all revision rules at the original site using plmxml_export –xml_file=file_name –class=revisionrule and use plmxml_import –xml_file=file_name at the importing site before using Multi-Site Collaboration with collaboration or structure context objects. Unsaved or modified revision rules are handled automatically.

  • Export individual structures prior to exporting a collaboration or structure context to get the proper revisions of the objects in the structures.

  • The configuration context does not affect which revisions are exported if you export a BOM with a collaboration or structure context.
