Hello all,

We are now starting (finally) to use part families in our environment. Previously this was not possible because of legacy data.

I am now running in to the following "issue".
It is recommended to NOT have your partfamily "parent" as a usable member in the family.
Therefor we have created a template file to act as the parent.
However, in our heavily customized Teamcenter environment, we would like this "template" to be of a different item type than the rest of the part family members (to prevent sending to downstream systems).
I haven't found a way or settiing in Teamcenter or NX to tell the partfamily members to be created as a different item type.

Is this possible actually?
