Remove Suffix from all parts

I was able to add suffix to all parts using "set new name" in windchill. I've attached screenshots below.

My question is how would I go about if i had to remove the new suffix from the name and go back to only the base number?

 

Thanks

Have you tried the "reverse" of your original change pattern? Like this:

*_suff.* --> *.*

Are the base numbers the same?

Are the suffix numbers the same?

 

An example of your part naming would help.

The base numbers will be different but the suffix are the same.

 

for example 123456_suff  >>> 123456

                    245365_suff >>> 245365

 

so different base numbers that i want to keep but knock off the same suffix at the end.

 

Thanks hope this helps
