optOFFForce usage of integrated CAD for execution of tasks involving homogeneous documents, queued from standalone application

Example

Workstation1 (WS1) is the submitter, while Workstation2 (WS2) is the task executer. the user on WS1 schedules the release for a checkedin model and drawing through the standalone client. Since the user has turned ON the option, on WS2 the approval will be performed through the CAD and the drawing template will be properly updated. Otherwise if the option has been left disabled, the approval would have been performed as well on WS2 but data on the template would have resulted not up to date.

optOFFCheck for missing reference before queuing tasks

This option perform a preliminar check in order to avoid to queue and execute tasks of checkin/approve that involve assemblies with missing parts
With this enabled, when queuing a new task, the Task Manager engine performs a search among the references of involved records of a task before queuing it, in order to search for missing ones.
If some is found, an alert message is shown and the task is no queued:
