The related drawings can be in the current folder or in a folder elsewhere in the vault. By default, Enterprise PDM checks the entire vault for related drawings. The scope of the search depends on administrative settings.

Referenced as

Specifies how a parent file references a child file: full path, relative path, or file name only. Enterprise PDM looks for references without full path names in the location specified for the parent.

References reported as outside the vault are not added to the vault when you check in the parent file. Place the referenced file in the same folder as the parent file or place it in a vault folder and update the parent file to refer to the referenced file using a fixed path.
