Assigning ownership to objects

You can change the ownership of objects you import into the database by using an Owner column. The first entry in this column after the title row (that is, the root entry) defines the global owner and group. If you leave any of the subsequent owner cells empty, the object's ownership is changed to the root owner and root group. In the following example, this is Person 1 belonging to the Mfg group.

Tip

Make the Owning user column visible in Teamcenter to verify that the owner is imported correctly.
