To Check Out and add to Workspace, to Check In to server

In the Creo folder browser go to Windchill Cabinets

Navigate to your Project Folder

RMB on your file (.prt or .asm) and choose  

If you have selected a file with associated files – an .asm or .prt which references to other files – then those files will also be automatically added to the workspace so the assembly or associated part files can be regenerated BUT they will not be checked out and therefore cannot be edited, they will simply be read only.

Make sure you select all the required files needed for your work if you intend editing them.

Tick the ‘Open initially selected object(s) in Creo‘ (at the bottom of the window above) option to immediately open in Creo

These files will now open in Creo and have now been added to your Workspace

Whilst files are Checked out by you they can be viewed by other people in their session of Creo but cannot be edited

 

Check In after editing

To allow other people to edit files they must be Checked In to the server.  Files can be Checked In but remain in your Workspace for viewing.

RMB on the file name in the model tree

Check in > Auto

 

Add to Workspace without Checking out

Use the Add to Workspace option to allow files to be viewed but still accessible to other people for editing.

 

Not Checked Out Error

 

If a file is in your Workspace but it has not been Checked Out you will get the above error if you try and modify it.
