Question

We are moving from Windchill 9.1 to Windchill 11 and at the same time we upgrading from WF 5  to CREO 4.

With our new instance of Windchill, there are many restricted parameters which we will need to add to our legacy components.  I know ModelCHECK can check for missing param and allow the user to add it to the model.  However, this is what I want to accomplish with Modelcheck:

1. Check for missing restricted parameters.

2. Allow the user to add the restricted using the same pulldown menu using the Interactive mode

3. Designate the parameters 

 

Advance function, using the same scheme above  except instead of interactive the user can run it in batch mode and select a default value for each restricted parameter.

ModelCHECK can add parameters but there is nothing like restricted parameters. In such case you can use external list file for possible values. Add that list file in respective start file, ModelCHECK will provide you a pull down for possible values on adding parameter. Same can be designated by adding PDM as value.

Hi Mahesh,

 

I'm trying add parameter for the Engineered by like the below format for my start file also added standard engineers list as well. But when I try to run the model check it is asking me to add the engineered by radio button alone not showing the test box and also not giving listed engineers dropdown list. Can you suggest me?

PRT_PARAMETER ENGINEERED_BY STR EQ LIST_ENGINEERS

 

I tried in an other way like at least if I could able to add the parameter manual entry but still there is some issue. 

 PRT_PARAMETER ENGINEERED_BY STR EQ *test*

 PRT_PARAMETER DRAWN_BY STR EQ *test*

PRT_PARAMETER CHECKED_BY STR EQ *test*

PRT_PARAMETER PROJECT MNGR_BY STR EQ *test*

I am not able to add the parameters and suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Naidu

Text file name for Engineers name list needs to be ENGINEERS.txt as you are calling the same in LIST_ENGINEERS.

 

Syntax seems correct just set the value to * not *test*. Possibly that will work. 

PRT_PARAMETER ENGINEERED_BY STR EQ *

 

Also check PARAMCHK in check file, it needs to be Y
