Hallo everybody,
I'm new to the community, and new to Teamcenter, so first of all, I want to thank in advance all those who will answer to my first post, and the whole community, for accepting my registration.
I'd like to submit some questions about column configuration, in a custom perspective which is based on Manufacturing Process Planner.
I think my customer will ask me to configure a set of column configuration for this perspective, which has different views (PlantBOP, EBOM, BodyBOM and so on), so a different sub-set for each view.
The problem is, that maybe, the customer will ask me for a "default" set of column configuration, based on GROUP level, and for several sets of column configuration, based on ROLE level.
So I tested the following:
The outcome of my tests, in my opinion, is that either I made a completely wrong set of operation, or the preferences on GROUP level will override the settings on ROLE level. So whatever I may set, on ROLE level, will never be visible, as the column configuration preferences can be set only on SITE, GROUP and USER level.
Could somebody please explain me how it works, if I made something wrong, or anyway, what is feasible, and which is the best solution for a stable process, to generate/export/import a set of saved column configurations?
Thank you again for all the answers.

Thank you for your answer Randy,
sorry, but actually I cannot reach the document you linked.
So, you say that it's possible to export a column configuration, and load it on Role level.
But if I set the preferences on Role level, those (eventually) on Group level would be overridden,
or should I be able to see both configurations at the same time?
After my tests, my impressions were that, (speaking about column configuration) any preference set on User, Group and Site level, would override the preference set on Role level.
And in another post of this forum, always speaking about column configuration, only preferences on Site, Group and User level have been mentioned, but no preference on Role level... Now I'm a bit confused...
P.S. could you please tell me if, in your opinion and for your experience, what I did is correct or not??

The Teamcenter documentation requires a webkey to access it. Attached is a quick reference that describes preferences. You should get a webkey created so that you can view Tc Help.

Thank you Randy,
I already have this document.
Ok, if nobody can tell me something more specific, I will ty to have a better look
at the manual, and find a solution for that... ;-)
