Item menu
- Create New Member... [administrator only]
- Opens a simple wizard to create a new member of any collection.
- Create New Document...
- Opens a simple wizard that prompts you for basic document attributes, and then opens a new document window. By selecting the owning organization, you constrain the document types, which in turn establish the document's characteristics. By deciding the lifecycle, you may affect the document revision format.
- Create New Part...
- Opens a simple wizard that prompts you for basic part attributes, and then opens a new part window. By selecting the owning organization, you constrain the part types, which in turn establish the part's characteristics. By deciding the lifecycle, you may affect the part revision format.
- Create New Change...
- Once you select the change form, a new change window is opened with that form. By selecting the change form, you establish the change's characteristics.
- Search

- Close

- Save All
- Saves all changes to all modified items, and clears each undo buffer.
- Remove Object
- Removes the active object (the front-most window in the workspace) from the database.
- If the window contains an item with only one unreleased revision, then the entire item is removed. If the item has at least one released or canceled revision as well as a pending revision, then only the pending revision is removed. No other items can reference the item: the item must first be deleted from any higher-level item list (structure, source or affected item on a change form) before it can be removed from the database.
- If the window contains a collection member, the member will be removed only if it is not referenced by another object.
- Exit
- Saves any modifications to all open items, and closes PDXpert.
