Inventor can't find part from library

I have a common parts library with it's own folder and project. Another project has the library added in its options like this:

When I created an assembly from parts with this library and pushed to GrabCAD, another team member got issues resolving the files when opening the assembly like this:

The library is clearly added to the project, but the "Library" and "Found in Library" fields say the part is not even from the library. The CPL project is set up correctly as a CPL in GrabCAD, and the other user does have all their files up to date and library paths set correctly. Any suggestions?

If you save the assembly with the correct mapping, and the mapping is correct in the project file it will work.

It's really as simple as that.

If the goal is to provide a pack and go that works, I don't understand why you can't just include the files in a folder that it can find?

Can't find what you're looking for? Ask the community or share your knowledge.
