Creating a Generate Derived Output Task

To create a generate derived output task:

  1. In SOLIDWORKS, click Tools > SOLIDWORKS Applications > SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler.
  2. Click Generate Derived Output on the sidebar, or click Tasks > Generate Derived Output.
  3. In the Task title dialog box, enter a title for the task.
  4. Specify the Derived Output:
    • DWG file
    • DXF file
    • PDF
    • STEP AP203
    • STEP AP214
    You can have the task include STEP AP203 or AP214 derived objects attached to SOLIDWORKS assemblies. The STEP format is not available for the Design with SOLIDWORKS app in on-premises installations. AP203 defines the geometry, topology, and configuration management data of solid models for mechanical parts and assemblies. This file type does not manage colors and layers. AP214 has everything that an AP203 file includes, but adds colors, layers, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, and design intent.
  5. Select a Collaborative Space.
  6. Specify the Maturity state.
  7. Specify an Owner for the collaborative space.
  8. For Task user, enter your 3DEXPERIENCE Username and Password, only if you are using the Design with SOLIDWORKS app.
