If an Excel file already exists and is managed in Teamcenter under an Item ID, how to then create a link from the existing managed Excel file to a managed Solid Edge Embedded Client [SEEC] file?

In SEEC launch Cache Assistant:

In the Cache Assistant dialog select Download:

In the Download File dialog change the Files of type field to All documents (*.*):

Search for or locate the Item ID that contains the managed Excel file. 

The Excel dataset is displayed in the Download File dialog: 

Select the Excel dataset and select Open.  The managed Excel file is downloaded into the Solid Edge cache:

 
In the Cache Assistant select the Excel file, right-click -> Open:

The managed file is opened in Excel. 

In the opened Excel file select the cell value you want to link into a Solid Edge variable and right-click -> Copy:

In SEEC with the Solid Edge file opened that you want to link to the Excel file select Tools -> Variables:

In the Variable Table select the value you want linked to the Excel value. 

Right-click -> Paste Link:

The Formula field should be updated to show the link to the managed Excel file, Sheet and Cell in the Solid Edge cache:

Close Excel.

Close the Variable Table.

Save the Solid Edge file.

Either Upload or Close the Solid Edge file.

Depending you may be prompted to also Upload the Excel dataset as well:

The link has now been created between  the managed Solid Edge and Excel objects:

Now the link exists, SEEC will bring down to cache the linked Excel file whenever the Solid Edge files is opened.
