You can map variables to both predefined properties (such as Title and Author) and custom named properties in Solid Edge files.
The full Solid Edge
application must be installed to manage Solid Edge files,
including adding, checking in, reading, and writing of Solid Edge
properties in Enterprise PDM.
Mapping to Solid Edge Custom Properties provides an example of Solid Edge variable mappings.
