NX nxtocgmdirect translator to generate pdfs not attaching to item revision

Summary


Details

Installed the NXtocgmdirect translator via tem and configured per dispatcher_server_translation_ref.pdf. 
I can translate an NX drawing to cgm no problem. The cgm is attached as a child of the NX dataset with a relationship.


Next (per GTAC knowledge base) I changed the nxtocgmdirect.bat file from: 
"%UGII_BASE_DIR%\Ugmanager\export_ugdwgimages.exe" -u -p -g -all -text=text %* 
to 
"%UGII_BASE_DIR%\Ugmanager\export_ugdwgimages.exe" -u -p -g -all -text=text -pdf %*


After translation, I get the cgm attached as before (as expected) but I do NOT get the PDF attached to the item revision. I DO get a pdf created and stored in the database matching the drawing name etc. 


How do I change the relationship that it has created? 



Solution

This is an NX preference, not Teamcenter. 
This is located at File>Utilities>Customer Defaults>Gateway>PDF Export. 
You can change Dataset Type, Named Reference Type, and Relation.
