View and manage your assignments

In Creo, NX, Teamcenter, and Windchill, the assignments panel in the lower half of the MI Materials Gateway window shows the Granta MI materials that are currently assigned.

Tip: In Creo and NX, you can view the full assembly or work part in the assignments panel by clicking MI Materials Gateway in the application toolbar or ribbon.
  • To see more information about an assignment, right-click and select View datasheet.
    This displays information from the Granta MI database.
  • To update a version-controlled assignment, right-click and select Update.
  • To remove an assignment, right-click and select Remove > Material.
    This deletes the Granta material from the part or body (as applicable) in your CAD or PLM application.
  • To copy and paste assignments from one part to another (when assigning to parts), or from one body to another (when assigning to bodies), use the right-click menu.

If an assignment is marked as missing , this means that it can no longer be found in your Granta MI database (for example, because it has been deleted or withdrawn). Where possible, its name is shown to help you find a suitable replacement.
