Overview

This CSB will make the vital connection between the CSBs and the ProjectWise datasource.

Steps to be follow

1. In ProjectWise Administrator, under WorkSpaces > Managed > Predefined right-click over the Predefined Level and select New > Configuration Block.

2. In the New Configuration Block Properties dialog, enter the name PSCE_Configuration_Root and the description ProStructures CONNECT Edition Configuration Root. Once complete, click Apply.

The dialog title will change to PSCE_Configuration_Root Properties.

Note: In the name section underscore ‘_’ (i.e. PSCE_Configuration_Root) is not mandatory, one can use blank space also (i.e. PSCE Configuration Root).

3. Go to the Configuration tab, click on Plus button and Add the following variable:

Add Variable to the PSCE_Configuration_Root CSB -

Name

_USTN_CONFIGURATION

Description

PSCE PW Configuration (_USTN_CONFIGURATION)

Add Value

Operation Type: '='- Assignment

Value Type:  ProjectWise Folder

Value:  Change value to point to ProjectWise WorkSpace, browse to pw:\\<server name>:<datasource name>\Documents\PSCE_Managed_Configuration\

Locked

YES

The final dialog will look like the below image. Once all good, click on the OK button.

Note: _USTN_CONFIGURATION defines the folder containing the entire Managed Configuration.

Tip: Since Configurations can be version specific, the PSCE_Configuration_Root Properties CSB includes the CE (CONNECT Edition) moniker to designate and differentiate between configuration versions.

In this way, we need to create new Predefined level CSB for ProStructures.

Next Step: Create a new "Global" level CSB called PSCE_Global_Config_Variables.
