Creating a Limited-access Costing Template

You can create a limited-access Costing template to share with other users. You can select limited-access templates in the Costing Task Pane, but you cannot view or edit them in the Costing Template Editor application.

1. To open a Costing template, do one of the following:
   • From the Windows Start menu, click All Programs > SolidWorks version > SolidWorks Tools > Costing Template Editor version.
   • With a part open:
     1. Click Costing (Tools toolbar or the Evaluate tab on the CommandManager) or Tools > Costing.
     2. In the Costing Task Pane, select a template to save, and click Launch Template Editor.
2. In the Costing Template Editor application, in an open template, click Save > Save As Limited Access Copy .
   You might have to click Save As instead of Save .

3. In the Save As dialog box, for File name, enter a name and click Save.

   The template is saved as a protected .zip file.

4. Close the Costing Template Editor application.
