Currently there is an understanding that a trace/link between two data objects can be created through a drag and drop. Is there any other functionality within the tool that uses this drag/drop? (other than standard windows functions like moving files or attachments)

Within the Requirements Management module, whenimporting requirements into a project, will PTC do text compare againstexisting requirements within the project to determine duplicity? What aboutcomparing Unique IDs for the requirements? What methods of reconciliation isavailable in the case of duplicity?

Can I edit image files within Integrity?

How does Source Integrity indentify that a member has been modified and can be checked-in?   As per my understanding this happens when: * the contents of the members have been updated/changed; * the member file's modification date has been changed.    Please let me know if my understanding is correct? I am trying to understand how the source integrity decides when to update a member’s revision with default policies in place. 

In Integrity presentation templates I insert an image URL to an image on the server (correct location). The image displays correctly. Later I come back to edit the template, and broken-link icon displays in place of image. Integrity will not allow to save template unless broken-link icons are deleted and new image links created. This has happened to me many times!! Very frustrating. Especially since the archaic grid interface practically requires you to use transparent images to control column-widths.How do you get around this issue? When will the bug be fixed? (I think I reported it a few months ago...can't remember).

Is there a guide or any other references that could help explain the functional differences between Integrity's web and thick client intrefaces?This would be for version 10.7

Hi,Is there any API function to write data on local file.Ex: I want to write 'Hello Word' in the file located on my machine through Script.

I have a project that was moved into another project using Integrity client.  After the move,  our auto merge scripts have been failing whenever it tries to merge those members from the old project.  Usually the error says something like "it doesn't belong in the project variant" and the change package doesn't get propagated which results on continuous errors. Is there a way around this ?

Hi,I want to write a Python-Program for monitoring the PTC Integrity server. Since i haven't found a way to read the gc.out file directlyI settled for using <im diag --diag=metrics --target=server> but I am a little confused regrading the returned information. For each part of the Heap there is a "current" and "peak" value: is this current in use/ currently available and is peak the total storage or the peak of the used storage in the past? I am also interested in knowing if the multiple values for the "average response time" were takenjust for this command/result or were they collected over a longer period and so only the last value gives information about thecurrent state?I hope that someone has already some experience with this kind of output and can help. Thanks!!

Is there a way to export reports in Integrity, Just copying the report seems to work for some of the reports which use normal recipes. But when we use relationship recipes a simple copy of report may lead to incorrect structure. Is integration of Excel with Integrity is the only option?. Please let me know if there are any other alternatives?.

Hi @all,my users want to see which calendarweek it is, if they set a special date in an integrity-item. Since the built-in functionality to get the calendarweek (weekofyear) from a date doesnt work as it should do for ISO-8601 i tortured my brain for an alternative, and (with help of my colleagues) here it is:floor((DayOfYear(<datefield>)+(mod(-5+(-DayOfWeek(<datefield>)),7)+2))/7)+1There are some weird things in this formula, especially the modulo-part with its positive/negative signs, but without this or with a more simple notation it doesnt work (at least here). Another small drawback: In years with a short first week the first days are in week 52 or 53 from the last year. Above formula doesnt calculate the year, and these first week is labeled as week 0.How to use: put the formula into the computation area of an integer field, thats it.Maybe its useful for someone else, and maybe someone can show me a better way to get ISO-calendarweeks in Integrity.cheers, Jens

Dear Community,Within an hierarchical tree of Items we want to make sure, that we do not have any target date conflicts.There we want to show the user when the target date of a parent item is in danger due to a later target date on a sublevel.Calculation it, and showing wether there is a conflict or not is not the issue. But in order to make it more handy we would like to give the user a hyperlink to the item that is causing the timing conflict. Is there any chance to computate/calculate a field, that shows the result as a hyperlink to one/multiple Items?The problem I currently have is, that Longtext fields (capable of Hperlinks in general) do not allow Computations.Any suggestion for possible solutions is highly appreciated.To help understand the situation here a quick example:Level 1: Target Date: 09/15/2015Level 2: Target Date: 09/13/2015Level 3: Target Date: 10/01/2015I would like to show the user a warning on level 1&2 with a link to the item on Level 3.Thanks for your help.Be

Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong? I have installed the server and collector on a Windows server without any problems, but when I come to install the agent for monitoring the integrity server on a Linux machine, it always fails:Log file:java.lang.NullPointerException    at com.ptc.windchill.psm.agents.configration.IntegrityConfiguration.install(IntegrityConfiguration.java:252)    at com.ptc.windchill.psm.ia.IAInstaller.install(IAInstaller.java:120)    at com.zerog.ia.installer.actions.CustomAction.installSelf(Unknown Source)    at com.zerog.ia.installer.InstallablePiece.install(Unknown Source)    at com.zerog.ia.installer.InstallablePiece.install(Unknown Source)    at com.zerog.ia.installer.GhostDirectory.install(Unknown Source)    at com.zerog.ia.installer.InstallablePiece.install(Unknown Source)    at com.zerog.ia.installer.Installer.install(Unknown So

I have to migrate from clearcase to MKS ( PTC ) with full revision history , could anyone guide me about this ?

As part of our help desk area, we want to display current ticket information charts that update periodically to help the staff see where their (and other) tickets stand. We also want to see which are past SLA, which in SLA Jeopardy by user etc. We have the charts set and and can display them in a browser which we display on a large screen monitor in the help desk area. Each chart is open in its own tab which we cycle through using a browser add-on. The only problem is when the tab reloads (presumably reloading the chart data), it refreshes back to the user's task list. So, instead of getting a fresh chart with new data, we get the current users task list.This seems like something that would be VERY useful in many cases and I'm betting someone else has set this up or might have a solution.Many Thanks

Does anyone have a link to where I can download the latest MS Project Integration for Integrity?

Having just installed the Implementer plugin to RDi 9.1, ALL the "user filters" ever created by a user show up as "lock filters" in the plugin.  In some cases there are scores of them.  Most of them show "empty list" when expanded because the objects were long ago promoted to production.As Implementer administrator, I would like to delete these obsolete "user filters" from within Implementer so the users don't have to clean them up themselves in RDi or Implementer.  However, when I try from WRKFLT.1 (from "Users" menu option #41, then '17' "User Filters" then F9 "All Users", then '4' "Delete", then 'Y' "Reply"), I get no message but the user filter remains.  It appears that I cannot delete another user's filters.Can anyone tell me how to do this?  Or from which database tables need records need to be deleted?

Extended Integrity LM family. Those of you that import document from Microsoft Word to PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager please have a look at the following scenario which is detailed in the attached PowerPoint slides. It has to do with section numbering and how to manage the user driven approach that MS Word takes with the system approach that we've adopted within PTC Integrity LM.Your experience and guidance in the "real world" would be appreciated.d

Not able to find ReqIf import option in PTC Integrity client.   Looking at these links, it looks like it is a separate adapter plugin. http://www.ptc.com/File%20Library/Solutions/By%20Enterprise%20Application/ALM/CS_Continental.pdf http://www.agosense.com/files/webinar_21.6.2012_requirements-exchange-based-on-reqif1.0.1.pdf   Please confirm if it is a separate plugin with additional cost.   --Prasad

Is there a way of creating the Item Type "Tag" in PTC Integrity using CLI?

We recently upgraded from MKS Integrity 2009 SP7 (AIX) to PTC Integrity 10.6 (AIX).  The upgrade was successful.I ran the uninstall per the instructions and all appeared good.  However, when I looked on the server most the 2009 files and directories were still there.  I was wondering what went wrong or can I delete these files and directories.  After the unistall completed it said "Uninstall Completed" "The following items could not be removed" "Unable to remove dectory..."Can I simply delete these files and directories?  The Integrity 10 is installed in a completely different directory.

Hello,Can I do that at resync? From cli or editing the options for this command..I received this kind of error:"[member]:Permission FetchRevision is denied.Please contact your Integrity administrator."Thanks,Ana
