Sister project tutorial

This tutorial is organized into four sections:

• Introduction to sister projects

• Managing sister projects

• Central concepts and key terms

• Frequently asked questions

Important: We strongly advice contacting Cadmatic Customer Support before starting your first sister project. The topic is complex, and making wrong choices in the early stages of a project could potentially lead to issues that are difficult to resolve later on. There are many ways to implement sister project management in practice, and Cadmatic personnel can guide you in finding what would work best in your environment.

While reading this tutorial, take particular note of the following:

• Setting up the projects and libraries. For details, refer to the Sister projects and COS section.

• Understanding the role of the sister project model query.

• Understanding the repeatable process of a sister project update.

• Knowing when to unlink model objects and documents in the target project. See unlinking, unlinked object.
