I have found myself with a bit of a problem. Although toolboxcontains many fasteners there can be many parts that are differentby specification but not form ie 1/4-20 hex hed bolt x 1 inch longgreat no throw in material, grade, and even plating or coating. Sothe decision makers (who do not use the software) decided that allparts should stand on there own, fine no big deal but hear is theproblem

if I use toolbox to generate the model (saving time) then I savethe part as a copy and remove all other configurations I cant seamto break the link where PDM works identifies the part as a Tool boxreference so I cant check it into the vault

Any insight would be greatSolidworksSolidworks Pdm enterprise Pdm
