How do you link variables in SOLIDWORKS PDM to newly created drawings?

To link variables in SOLIDWORKS PDM (Product Data Management) to newly created drawings:

  • In the SOLIDWORKS PDM administration tool, define the variables you want to use in your drawings.
  • In your SOLIDWORKS drawing, insert the desired variables using the ‘variable’ feature.
  • Ensure the variable names match the ones defined in the SOLIDWORKS PDM administration tool.
  • When a new drawing is created, the variables will automatically be populated with the corresponding data from the SOLIDWORKS PDM system.
