NX/Manager

When you do a saveas from NX into Teamcenter Engineering, a Teamcenter variable comes into play. This is:

DATASET_saveas_pattern=${ItemID}/${RevisionID}

Which in Teamcenter 2005 (10) is stored in the database, found from Portal at: Edit -> Option… ->  Search (tab on bottom)

But what if your UGMASTER, UGPART, UGALTREP or other datasets have different naming conventions? Lets say you add a ‘Drawing’ text into the naming. The Save-As will fail. So to fix this you need to add DATASET specific saveas_pattern. This example is for UGPART datasets:

UGPART_saveas_pattern=${ItemID}-Drawing/${RevisionID}

Think of the DATASET_saveas_pattern as the global rules, and the specific dataset patterns as overrides.
