SOLIDWORKS PDM Jun 29, 2026

SOLIDWORKS PDM can help users quickly understand the status of files using warning icons. In the PDM add-in, these icons appear right next to the file name, each providing different information. In Figure 1, notice that part 10000506 has a yellow exclamation point and a red clock. This is PDM indicating that the assembly is referencing a version of 10000506 that's older than the latest version stored in the vault.
