See the procedure, above, to set your Default Design Responsibility (RDO).
A default Design Responsibility (RDO) is helpful for users who frequently create parts or ECs in a particular project.
The Design Responsibility (RDO) of an EC is determined by the method and location of EC creation.
ECs created from within a project are assigned the project RDO.
ECs created outside the context of a specific project are assigned the default RDO of the creating ENOVIA user.
The RDO of an EC may be changed.
