Important Note for Inventor Connector Customers

Prior to the Connector 10.7 release, the Inventor Connector managed the design family links in Inventor with the Generic as the child: iMember -> iFactory. In the Connector 10.7 release, the Link direction changed. The Factory (Generic) is now the head of the relationship: iFactory -> iMember.

This change affects only the Family Table management using Inventor iFactory and iMembers. There are no changes related to the Inventor Model States. This change in the Inventor Connector has been done to improve the management of iMembers. Customers currently managing the iFactory and iMembers should migrate their database when upgrading from an older version of the Connector to Connector 10.7 or later.

Please contact Connector Support (connector-support@essigplm.com) with any questions or assistance with updating existing Inventor Design Family CAD Structure Relations.

As a reminder, when installing the Connectors for PLM, please run the ConnectorServerConfig.exe utility to update the server to the latest Connector packages. Refer to the Connector Installation Guide for more information.
