-
For drawings owned by the host, ownership can be given by the host to any standalone or connected satellite.
-
For drawings owned by a standalone satellite, ownership can be given by the host to any other standalone or connected satellite or the host itself. For the host to transfer ownership to a drawing from one satellite to another, the host must first transfer ownership back to itself before granting ownership to the other satellite.
-
For drawings owned by a connected satellite, ownership cannot be set by the host.
-
When transferring ownership of a drawing, the corresponding drawing versions are not transferred. Only the current version of the drawing is transferred.
-
When using Workshare in an integrated environment, satellites must transfer drawing ownership back to the host in order for the host to publish the drawings and in order for retrieved documents to have tasks updated within the satellite drawings.
