Update an asset

Procedure

1. Open the page dataset in a publishing page viewer anywhere in Teamcenter.

2. Select the asset and choose Edit → Update Asset from the page viewer menu.The new contents of the asset are displayed, along with a triangle indicating that the display shows new (and so far unaccepted) data.

3. Switch between displaying the old and the new data by choosing Show Original Data and Show New Data from the asset's shortcut menu. The asset is in an uncommitted state. You cannot update the asset again or repopulate it while it is in this state.

4. Accept or reject the change by choosing Accept New Data or Accept Original Data from the asset’s shortcut menu. All of the assets on a page can be updated at once using the publishing page Edit → Update Technical Illustration menu. Other Edit menus let you toggle the display and accept or reject the changes for all of the assets on the page at once.

   Note You cannot update data in the database (other than the publishing page itself) by updating an asset. Assets can only display what is already in the database. To update a 3D asset, you must first update the snapshot dataset in the assembly viewer.
