Abstract
A method for loading an assembly for a CAx client includes determining referenced part IDs referenced by the assembly and for each referenced part ID, determining a latest applied command of saved checkpoints for each part file of a referenced part ID. The method further includes determining any unapplied commands for each referenced part ID, loading the part file for each referenced part ID with the latest applied command to the CAx client, and applying the unapplied commands sequentially by command number. A computer program product such as a computer readable medium and a computer system corresponding to the above method are also disclosed herein.
