About Parts and Engineering Central

Whether Library Central/Library Experience is used by itself or with Engineering Central determines how part families and parts are created, and the workflow surrounding parts.

Library Central supports the creation of simple Parts and Part Families from within the application as described in this guide. When Engineering Central is installed, the Engineering Central forms and triggers, along with a comprehensive work process capability, are added. Likewise, using Engineering Central in combination with Library Central/Library Experience expands the Engineering Central product capabilities. An Engineering Central user who also has a Library Central/Library Experience license may organize Part Families into hierarchies and inherit attributes from Part Families higher in the structure.
