Types of tracking requests

The Application Interface Viewer allows you to track three types of requests:

• Synchronization request This is associated with a single data export transaction.

• Publish request This is associated with a single data import transaction.

• Notify request This informs the Teamcenter and external application users of the success or failure of the transaction.

The import or export of data may take significant time, depending on the size of the structure. Each request transitions through several states and you can monitor these states to determine the status of the request. The possible request states are:

State	Request status
New	The request is created but not yet processed.
Processing	PLM XML data creation is in progress, or a PLM XML file import has begun.
Pending	Processing is complete and communication of the synchronization request is in progress, or the synchronization request is complete, but the Publish request is not processed.
Communicating	Teamcenter and the external application are exchanging data.
Completed	Processing of the transaction request is complete but not necessarily successful.
Rejected	The transaction request is rejected. Teamcenter maintains the history of requests, unless you explicitly delete them.
