Solidworks Enterprise PDM

Solidworks Enterprise PDM

Solidworks Enterprise PDM

(OP)
I'm new to using EPDM in Solid works. I'm trying to check in a group of files. I have one drawing with 10 sheets. These sheets are linked to assemblies, sub-assemblies and configurations for several of the standard components. I tried to use ctrl. Q and rebuild for each assy, drawing sheet etc...   

Problem:
After opening all of the files together rebuilding and using ctrl. Q some of the files are still showing "The file is not rebuilt" in the checked in state (please see attached file). Somebody please help with this problem. I have tried re assembling my components only to have another sub-assembly or file show errors. If you can help thank you in advance for your wisdom.

Is this a normal problem or is something wrong with my modeling practices?
Is it ok to leave files in this state when checked into the vault?
Note: These errors do not show up in the files, assemblies or drawings when they are open.

RE: Solidworks Enterprise PDM

I suspect this might have something to do with the way solidworks looks for file references, but I can tell you 100% that your reseller will probably have a fix for you much faster if you just ask them. That is why your company pays them, and every reseller I've dealt with so far has had great tech support.
