You also have the option to save the following: Sharing: Preserves any sheet sharing that you've set up. (Unchecked by default) Automated Workflow & Alert Options: Retains any associated Automation rules with the saved copy of the sheet. (Checked by default.) Workflow recipients and Automation Permission Settings: Retains permission settings for the rules. (Unchecked
by default) If a rule for the new sheet has no valid recipients (that is, if no one will be able to receive notifications based either on the permission settings or on the approved domain sharing list for the account) the sheet owner will receive this message in email: An Automation rule on your sheet has become invalid. This sheet’s permissions settings are currently preventing recipients from getting notifications. To modify rule permission

Using Workspace Save As The workspace Save As action allows you to save copies of objects in the workspace as new objects. These newly created objects are not committed to the commonspace until you perform a checkin. Your copies can be modified, evaluated, and discarded before checkin, to avoid unwanted or redundant database iterations. Workspace Save As also allows you to update and unset attributes that may differ from the original objects, as well as update a dependency from an existing parent object to the newly duplicated object, letting you replace an old component with a newly duplicated component without involving the authoring application. In addition, circular dependencies can be detected and managed. Following are some general considerations for Save As (parts related—Windchill PDMLink or Windchill ProjectLink only). • If CAD documents and their associated parts are copied together, the new objects have the same types of associations as the originals. • If a CAD document is copied without its associated parts, the new CAD document does not have any associations to parts. • If a part is copied without its associated CAD documents, the new part does not have associations to any CAD document. If the server side preference, > > is set to Yes, then the new Part will stay related to the already associated CAD Documents. • For Creo family table objects: ◦ If an instance alone is copied without its generic, then a new instance is added to the family table. ◦ If the generic alone is copied, then a new standalone part is added. ◦ If the generic and some of its instances are copied then a new family table is added. • For family table objects: Replace content functionality is possible when a family table generic with same number of instances exists in Windchill. • Save as using Update Parents action for a child having family table is now supported. This is possible only when the child is added as a column in the family table of the parent. For other authoring applications, all Family Table objects must be copied together
Workspace Save As is available from the workspace File menu, the workspace information page actions list, and the workspace Structure tab toolbar. The Save As page has the following two steps: 1. Collect Objects to Copy 2. Update Parents You can navigate to a subsequent step by clicking Next. Navigate to a preceding step by clicking Back or clicking the gray box corresponding to a previously completed step. Collect Objects to Copy When Save As is initiated, the first step of the Workspace Save As page appears with the objects you selected and any required dependents listed in the Save As table. Current Settings information is listed above the table. The Configuration menu allows you to change the current table columns and add additional attributes that you may want to edit during Save As. For more information on basic table use, sorting, using and customizing views, and finding strings in the table listing, see Using Tables and Customizing Table Views.
Below the menu bar is the tool bar for the Save As table. You can use the action icons on the left side of the tool bar to: • collect additional related objects. • remove selected objects from the table. • exclude or include objects from the action while leaving them listed in the table. These collection tools are common to many Windchill action pages and are described in the topic Collecting in Advanced Mode.
To the right of the collection tools are the action icons for specifying how the new objects for selected objects in the Save As table are saved. These actions are described in the following table.

4. Select one or more objects and click the Set New Name icon 5. By default, objects in the Save As table are indicated in the Action status column to be saved as new objects (
6. By default, new objects take the organization ID of the original context. You can change the Organization ID by selecting one or more objects and clicking the set Org ID icon 7. By default, newly saved-as objects are stored in the same location as the original. You can set a different location by selecting one or more objects and clicking the set location icon 8.

Click Next to continue to the Update Parents step. —or— Click Finish to commit the Save As action without updating parent objects. Update Parents The Update Parents step allows you to update a dependency from a parent object so that a newly saved-as object can be the child of an existing parent. For each object being copied, valid parents are determined. If the parent is in the workspace and is not being copied, then the parent is valid. When you click Next in the Collect Objects To Copy step, the system presents the Update Parents step. This step lists parents of the objects set to be saved as new objects in the Parents List table. By default, all parents are set to reuse their original members.
To update parents: 1. For any parent listed and eligible for update, decide if you want it to remain the parent of the newly saved as objects. 2. In the toolbar of the Parents List are action icons that control how a selected parent object is handled during a Save As action.The controls are described in the following table.
◦ You can specify that a new parent object be created for the new structure by selecting the listed parent and clicking the replace parent icon 3. Click Finish to commit the Save As action. The objects are processed and the new objects are listed in the workspace.
