## 18.4. Updating Workbench Projects in EKM

If a project requires updating, this will be indicated visually in the Project Schematic view. The following icons are displayed next to cells that need refreshing or updating:

Update Required Refresh Required

When you are updating a project that contains a cell where refresh is required, the Refresh operation is performed and then the Update operation is performed.

Refer to Understanding Cell States in the ANSYS Workbench User's Guide for more details.

The project schematic in the sample project archive presented in Figure 18.1: Sample Workbench Project Report indicates that refresh is required for the Results cell of the Fluid Flow (CFX) system.

For information about starting a Workbench project update in EKM, see Running a Workbench Project Update.

When you display the Workbench project report after the project update is completed, you will see that the status of the cell in the Project Schematic that previously required refreshing is now up-to-date, as shown in the example below.

You can also verify that the Output parameter for the Current design point has been updated in the Design Points and Outline of All Parameters tables in the Workbench project report. This is shown below for the sample project.
