Multiple users working on an assembly in WF2

Discussion in 'Pro/Engineer & Creo Elements/Pro' started by solid3ddesigns, Jan 18, 2005.

  1. Is it possible for more than one user to work on an assembly at the
    same time without PDM link or intra link etc etc. Any advice or work
    arounds would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,
    HB

    Not that I know of. You could try breaking it into functional subassemnlies
    & making individual designers responsible for them

    This has been discussed to death. Yes it can be done using search paths and
    making absolutely sure that nobody works on the same items at the same time
    but rather, in some kind of orchastrated sequence. From experience I can
    tell you that you shouldn't even attempt it. You will fail at some point
    and boy will you be in trouble then.

    I still haven't tried it but you might see if pro/collborate (which is free
    for current customers) will work for you. This is what PTC says it will do:
