I have created drawing template using OOTB templates and followed the below steps.

1 I have import OOTB template into TC using Managed NX to get TC attributes in master drawing template.

and exported into native.

2 Create Title block and other table as per the requirements.

ex: Imported the part attributes like "DB_PART_NO" (<WRef4*0@DB_PART_NO>) appropriate cells

4 Updated the PAX file in native to test in native whether the template is coming in File New and Insert sheet and its working also.

5 The pax file and newly created templates are imported into TC and set preference too.

6 I am able to consume the new template in Managed NX and the attribute also fetching properly.

Problem statement:

Currently I am migrating Solidworks to NX for Part Assembly & Drawings.

I took one of the migrated drawing and changed the drawing template which I created, since migrated drawing will not have drawing template (File > Import > Part > Navigate the new template).

I have imported the same drawing into TC using managed NX.

If I open the same imported drawing in Managed NX, the values(Item ID, Name & Revision) are not updated which I mapped.

If I edit the cell from title block, I can see the actual value. if I click okay the value did not changed.

If I type space next to the values, then click value its fetching the values.

Please view the avi for reference.

The problem where Attributes values are not getting updated in the Title Block when the drawing is imported in to Teamcenter has been investigated and the following has been found.

File->Import->Part does not support importing part attributes, it just tries to link to existing attributes.

However, the user could try using sheet templates and importing their template part as a sheet template. This functionality does create the part attributes if the attributes do not exist.
