How to create a PCF dataset from XpresReview and have that dataset launch 
XpresReview.



Solution

When TCIN loads the UGMaster to XpresReview using "menu > File > Send to 
Package File", there is no capability for XpresReview to save the PCF data 
back to Teamcenter as a PCF dataset under the Item Revision. The creation of the
PCF dataset will have to be created manually using the following steps:

1. In XpresReview, use Save As to save the pcf file to OS.

2. In Teamcenter, under the desired Item Revision, create a new dataset with 
Type set to PCF.

3. Click Import button and browse to select the pcf file from OS that was 
created from step1 above.

4. OK the dataset creation dialog.

5. In Teamcenter, go to Edit > Options..., highlight Dataset under Options folder.

6. Hit the drop down for Dataset Type, and select "PCF".

7. Highlight XpressRev and toggle on "Use MIME Type to Search Application for 
Default Tool".

8. OK the Options dialog.

Double-clicking this PCF dataset will load the dataset from Teamcenter to XpresReview.
