Hi, What is Defer Drop Member option? If I select this option I still see the file but striked out. If I want this for all Users or enable this bydefault, how do I do this?   Thanks

Hi, I am new to integrity and need some help as we are moving from Clearcase to Integrity. Is there any option to recover the deleted file from Sandbox? In clearcase, if we delete a file, it will automatically create another version. So if we needed to go back to previous file, we can retrieve it from previous version. But in Integrity if we do Drop Member, it is deleting the file completely.    If I want to remove any specific file from Sandbox, do I need to create a new version without that specific file instead of deleting it? How do I create a new version with specific files? Thanks in advance..

My problem is, that I'd like to create some queries that contain a list of items with a range of values in a specific field, which is a pick field. I could specify this by selecting all desired values in that. But if the pick list gets extended the queries will need manual updates every time the list changes - if the value matches the range. The definition of a specific query for the field and then using it as a sub-query for the other queries would reduce the manual work, but I'd still depend on the information, that the field had changed and a manual update of a query.   Example: The pick list field could be 'release' with values [v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, v1.2.1, v2.0, v2.1, v2.2, v2.4, v2.5, v3.0, ...]. Now I'd like to filter all items for release v1.x.y. When I now select all the relevant releases. If 'v1.3' would be added I'll have to modify the list in the filter.   Is  there a way to specify '(field["release"] contains "v1."' or maybe some RegEx 'field["release"]="v1\..*

Hello,We need some advice on creating the field.We want to create a new field that is possible to add new value (like a pick list) and add additional information of that value.We found the most similar fields among the existing fields. They are "Parameter" and "Parameter Values" field used for parameter functions.(We do not need the parameter function itself, We need a field where we can set the value in a similar way to setting the parameter.)but, we could not find a special setting, they were only created "Long Text" type.For example, we will use that(or these) field for branch control.1. Define all branch name.2. Select branch that need to change.3. Enter whether the change is completed for each branch.Is there any help about this question?

I have to admin and support some hundred installed clients and what I really miss is a way to publish a "complete" default configuration for the client gui.   I do know how to configure a viewset and all it's option: - menu content (which command is visible (on Toolbar ) or not ) - view behavior (floating or "inline" position) - content of context menu's in views ... But all these setting do only apply for the viewset's "inline" views.   I have no idea how to define the default settings for a floating view, especially things like: - a default filter for the project history view - the content of the context menu in a sandbox view - the command available in the menu of an Item detail view ....   Any ideas ?

After setting everything correctly as written in the documents and opening the Matlab and LM client as admin, when I try to synchronize my simulink model with Integrity LM, I get the following error: DEBUG: Integrity Lifecycle Manager Solution Type is required. and when I again click 'synchronize Model', then following error appears: DEBUG: MKS157416: MKS157416 No valid types for prefix "model.mathworks" and type property "model.mathworks.type" set to true.Command cancelled by user. Could any expert help me on this issue?

Hello, Context : Integrity provides us standard reports like "Document Content". I'm interested by this report, because it is user friendly : clear, displayed section in order to show all level of requirement and titles, etc...   Expected : to have a compliance matrix. I have create 2 field : "Compliance Status", a pick List field, and "Compliance Comments" (a text field). It's an official document that we need to transmit to our client, or internal services... I want to do a copy of "Document Content" report in order to create a new report with the same format but with additional fields: - 2 fields : "Compliance Status" and "Compliance Comments" - "ID" or "Item ID (Web Link)" - "Category".   Question : The problem is that this copy of standard report is not modifiable for the content. Impossible to add new fields in the display of the report... I can copy this report but not modify it in order to display additional field. There is no solution for a customization of this

Hello,   Is there a way (without using customization or trigger) to have a Duplicate check for Contents before creation. The idea is to NOT ALLOW the creation of contents with SAME NAME within a Integrity Document.   Duplicate Detection seems to be disabled for Document & Contents. Why?     Thanks for reading my post.

Hello PTC community! Here my problem: Context : We use a field to limit edition on document in Signature phase. This field allows modification on the properties of the document and in the content of the document only with a change order. In this field we use a Computation Definition : (State=Unspecified) or (State!="Signature") or ("Valid Change Order")    Purpose : give right modification to Administrator group or administrator user in signature phase, despite this field.   Why : a user left the projet or the society while his document was in Signature phase... And impossible to change the assigned user field. My solution for the moment is to returning the document in previous phase with administration rights, change the assigned User and to launch again the signature. And I lost all the signature of my signatories... unhappy users...   How modifying computation Definition in order to allow administrator to edit document? Thanks a lot for your reply ! Eudes

How to Export Rich Text like Tables, Images in Excel Export?   With the help of customize Excel Export, I am able to export my data from Integrity to MS-Excel but the issue I am Facing is not able to Export Rich Text.   Can anyone who worked in customize parser could help me?

Need the ability to extract Change Package Status for Implementer type so that  I can test the status of the Item's change package to see if it is allowed to be change to the next state. I need to be able to test each and every Change Package ID to test the status if it's value is not "In Prod" then prevent the state from being change to the next state. See the screen shot of the change package tab in this case the rule would prevent the issues state being changed to the next level.   Change Packages tab view  

Hi all,   we've made an update from 10.7 to 11.0 in the last week, and now users are complaining about the readability of charts. Charts configured to be displayed as bar graphs now include a white line which seems to show a pseudo-3D-look (as the bars should be shown as nice cylinders or such thing). But if you have many bars in a chart, and on top this chart is displayed in a dashbord, the charts a quite difficult to read, because one third of each bar is simply white, no matter which color you chose for the bar.      Who the **** came up with this idea without making it configurable? Or is there anywhere an option to have flat bars without blinking shiny reflections? And if you change anything in the old client, why not changing some really important things?   Thanks, Jens

IM Dynamic Group functionality basically defines and affects the IM Project and access control definition to all Items created within that project. How about listing all the dynamic groups at Project creation/update wizard itself so that correspending Project Adminstrator can update the information & memebership of relevant project at same place.   I feel this way we can also define the Project permission (Project access scope) based on the dynamic group membership. Currently, Project Permission (tab) allows only STATIC GROUP which I feel is not ideal. Sometimes, you really want to expose Project & Project data to only to specific bunch of users and not entire static group members.   Pl comment with your suggestions/opinions on this.   You can follow the same idea I had posted on PTC Community in below link: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Integrity-Ideas/Inclusion-of-IM-Dynamic-Group-functionality-into-IM-Project/idi-p/491439/jump-to/first-unread-message &nbsp

Hi all,   just came back from Stuttgart from the PTC Forum and wondered how others perceived this event regarding Integrity. For me it was very interesting (to say not shocking) to see how small the event became and how little there was to see about Integrity.   It was already very clear in the last few years that IOT and PLM had the main focus, but this time there was nothing left to Integrity. Could it be believed that integrity may no longer be so important? Of course, direct conversations always try to refute this impression, but I am sceptical...   kind regards, Jens

Hi all, Integrity 11.1 Configuration Management. Is there a way to find the list of all the CM projects where a member is contained ? I need to search for file name (e.g. Frontload.sql) and get the list of all the CM projects where the member is contained. Many thanks Martina

Hello everyone, I meet some difficulties with limited access to project and documents. In our configuration we define 3 groups with specifics rights : - Creator for editing and assigned user of document. - Reviewer for Review Pending phase. - Signatory for Signature phase. In each group, there are many users. Now, I want to create a project visible by only few users. So the logic is different, I don't care of group, I want to allow access to documents of this project to only few users. But Integrity allows me to limited access only with available groups. So if I want to give access to User A with Creator role, I shall give access to the whole Creator group. So all users of Creator group have access...   How I can use Integrity with real societal concern, confidentiality of project, etc... That's very important for the future of implementation tool in the society. Without this functionnality that's will be very problematic Eudes

In Workflow & Documents, Is there a way to restricting Editability / Relevance of Standard Fields like Shared Category.   The requirement is to allow the setting of Category value only in draft state. Once it moves from Draft state, no one should be able to change the category value.   The Editability & Relevance tab is not visible for standard fields as well on the 'Override of Fields' on the Type. I tried playing with constraints too but it did not helped.   One way I can think of is calling a trigger to abort when someone changes category value. But I want to avoid customization. Appreciate any help.

How to customize Import Gateway parser? Currently when we import a word document in Integrity, all data import in text field. Is there any way to change this pattern, extract data from ms-word and import in some other field other than text?

Hi,   after renaming a subproject via the "Move Subprojects Wizard" a sandbox creation of the renamed subproject with the current project configuration is not possible   Example: 1) Moving  /Testing/Testing2/project.pj to /Testing/Testinng2/project.pj   2) Create sandbox via GUI and the Create Sanbox Wizard after selecting the renamed subproject in the project view     Preselected Projectname: /Testing/Testinng2/project.pj Current configuration: Mainline   we get the Error:  MKS125211: The project file /Testing/Testing2/project.pj is not registered with the current server.   However: With changing the project configuration to Normal (mainline) the sanbox creation is possible. Sandbox creation with CLI (si createsandbox --project=/Testing/Testinng2/project.pj D:\Test) is also possible.   Question: Is this a Bug in the Sandbox Creation Wizard?   Integrity LifeCycle Manager 11.1.0.961   Thanks in advance

Hello,The is.properties file contains a section called "Integrity help redirection"I am wondering if this can be used for a custom Help website that is customized to our Integrity Solution, and how.

Hello, I like to create a message box from a rule-based event. Trying to use command "window.alert" I always get error 'not defined'. Using lookupbean I fail cause I find a message only for package siEnvironmentBean, which does work for IM.   Does anyone have an idea that works? My script example: function abort(s){    eb.abortScript(s, true);}var eb = bsf.lookupBean("siEnvironmentBean");main(){abort("Attention!  \You copied Content.  \Please check whether copied content is still correct!");};   Happy for all hints, Klaus

For example in older Integrity version the command below worked correct  but failed in Intergrity version 11.1 because of missing local project .pj.   Projectpath=/Projects/Library/LibPart1/project.pj Sandboxpath=C:\Library\LibPart1   working path cmd-line C:\Library\LibPart1   si viewproject --hostname=... --port=... --nolock --batch --yes -S c:\Library\LibPart1\project.pj c:\Library\LibPart1\*.*   if Sandbox location is the same as project location it worked, otherwise not.   For new versions since 11.1 worked only on sam pathes this si viewproject --hostname=... --port=... --nolock --batch --yes c:\Library\LibPart1\*.*   error Message: Checking out...*** MKS125408: c:\..*.* is not a valid member name.   Can anyone show me a solution how i can checkout the files in the sandboxfolder in version 11.1?   I hope to get help here   Thank you   ingo

We are soon to set up Integrity lifecycle manager with our PDMLink 11.0 system, and what curious how others and configured their systems. Standalone server,processing power, memory, disk space requirements are main interests. We are also still using RequirementsLink and not sure how we are going to convert/integrate. Any help is most appreciated. Also, which of the releases are reasonably stable. Should we go to the latest(11.2 I believe). Thanks again!

Hi...We would like to allow our users to delete items while applying the governance that we've coded within the tool. The "delete item" ACL provides access to users for deleting items, but it is not granular enough to apply the contextual rules that we need applied.Is there a way to hook a trigger/script up to the delete-item processing? We are looking for functionality that is similar to edit-item and scripts where we can setup a trigger and within a script add the custom-logic that we need. In our case, if the governance rules do not allow for a deletion, the script would simply abort with a message describing why the delete is not allowed.Please let me know how we can accomplish this functionality.Kind regards,-Seanedits: corrections for grammar and typos.

I have a computed date field (date only, not timestamp) that uses the function firstTimeEntryDate() to find the earliest time entry on an item.The output looks like this: Jan 13, 2014 GMT+00:00I want to get rid of the useless "GMT" information.My first instinct is to try to parse the date and reformat it, so I end up with something that looks like this:timestamp( concat( Substring( MonthOfYearName( firstTimeEntryDate() ) , 1 , 3 ) , Text( " " ) , ToText( getDay( firstTimeEntryDate() ) ) , Text( ", " ) , ToText( getYear( firstTimeEntryDate() ) ) ))This doesn't work because "The Timestamp() function takes a single argument which must be a string in the format java.text.SimpleDateFormat".I know I can do the parsing into a text field, but I want a date.Does anybody have a solution to format a computed date field, or more specifically remove the GMT information?
