Project-aware saved search
A search that is defined to search for documents, where the starting point of the search is the project in which the search itself is saved. When you copy a project-aware saved search to another project, the search path of the new saved search is updated to reflect the project it was copied to.

Project type
Project types are similar to environments, except that project types can only be assigned to projects. Project types are created in ProjectWise Administrator, and contain custom project properties. Once a project type is created in ProjectWise Administrator and assigned to a project in ProjectWise Explorer, users can open the Project Properties dialog and enter values for those custom project properties on the Properties tab.

ProjectWise Distribution Service
The portion of ProjectWise that lets you identify a group of documents, have them rendered using ProjectWise InterPlot Server, and then send the rendered documents to another folder, another datasource, or if you have the proper connectors, to another document management system. You can choose to send copies of the original documents along with the rendered copies to the target location, or you can choose to skip the rendering and simply use ProjectWise Distribution Service as a way to copy documents from one place to another.

You can use the ProjectWise Integration Server's Indexing Service, or you can install a devoted ProjectWise Indexing Service on another computer to off-load work from the main Integration Server. ProjectWise Indexing Service cannot be installed on a computer on which ProjectWise Integration Server is already installed.
