The structure of a multi-CAD document is built using the Teamcenter rich client and Teamcenter’s Structure Manager or Teamcenter Structure Editor. To add a foreign assembly or non-modeled assembly to an existing Solid Edge assembly:
Find the foreign assembly or non-modeled assembly in the Teamcenter rich client.
Select the item revision and copy it to the clip board.
Using either Teamcenter rich client Structure Manager or Solid Edge Structure Editor, paste the item revision into the top level assembly of an open Solid Edge assembly.
Save the structure changes to complete the edit of the Solid Edge assembly.
Open the Solid Edge assembly in Solid Edge.
The placement of driven references in the Solid Edge assembly is based on the Transformation Matrix in the BOM View Revision. Grounded assembly relationships are applied to the driven references. The components can be positioned once the grounded relationship has been removed from the foreign subassembly.
