I have a scenario,consider I am creating the following objects using Windchill Custom API loader.EPMDocument -xyz.prt, versions A.1,B.1,C.1WTPart - abc, versions A.1,B.1,C.1I use the below static methods to initialize the objects.EPMDocument.newEPMDocument(docNumber, docName, authoringApp, docType, cadName) for epmdocumentWTPart.newWTPart(number,name) for wtpart My question:First, when A.1 instance is created, i believe the API also creates its master object in the background. What happens when i move to B.1 creation, with same API code? will it attempt re-creation of master object (or)override  existing master object during B.1 and C.1?    

Hello everyone,we introduced Windchill a few weeks ago. Now I have to create quite large assemblies, subassemblies, single parts and associated drawings from our migrated data. Some reference parts (phantoms) without linked WTParts are also components of the assembly which I want to copy. If I want to use the  "save as" function, I have two options. When I start from the top assembly and I do the collector I see all the files I needed. This includes also the phantoms. In the "As a Structure with Associated Objects" view, however, I miss the drawings. So I switch to "As a List", but the view is rather confusing because I can't expand and collapse the individual node of the sub assemblies. The second option: If I start from the WTPart,  then I have my CAD structure plus drawings visible under "As a Structure with Associated Objects", but logically the phantoms are missing here because they have no linked WTParts. I would like to have the "Structure with Asso

I would like to find the source of the Audit Trail Journal information that shows in the Windchill interface when clicking the Audit Trail Journal icon in the History section of the Timeline tab of the CAPA quality objects.. I would like to find the source either in Query Builder or the database in order to incorporate the information into another report. But I have been unable to to locate the information either in Query Builder or in the database. Does anyone know how to grab this information to include in custom reports? I am using Windchill  version 11.1 M020-CPS17. 

We are having issues with Calculated links and the flawed logic that PTC has used in how these associations are determined in some use cases.  One example that keeps coming up lately is when two drawings referenced a single CAD model,  so both drawings became "calculated" to the corresponding WTPart.The users decide to move all the technical information to one single drawing,  so they revise everything and disconnect the latest version of one drawing from the model.  The model and desired drawing are checked in and will move forward.  The second drawing should be dropped and no longer considered.   But as you can see in the attachment illustrations,  the non-latest version of the disconnected drawing will remain displayed on the WTPart as calculated.  This makes no sense.I have even gone so far as to create a new 3D model and new WTPart for the disconnected drawing.  That second drawing is linked to the new 3D model and therefore associ

Hello all, Need your help, I created one Action button which will create a new document in windchill. But once the document is created we get success feedback message in OOTB with an hyper like to the info page of newly created document. but I tried all the API which are available but unable to create that hyper link. can any one help me. How to get that hyperlink?

I want to add all parts that are applied by a variant specification to a managed variant baseline. Therefore in the matrix editor, I have to mark all parts that have been selected for the variant specification based on option filter or manually manually to be able to add them to the variant baseline by "update baseline objects". Is there really no way to add/select all parts that apply to the Variant Specification (all parts that have a check in the matrix editor) automatically?? Creating a baseline on the derived variant is much more easer but deriving a variant is a step i do not need. Using Windchill PDM Link 12.1.2.0

Hi 🙂 APE publishing failure with trusted host setup.I am facing issue with APE publishing which keeps failing on with Below error.ERROR IN JOB LOG:[A30500] CMS exception: general failureInvalid login credentials for user wcadmin While publishing APE job I could see there is error entry printed in the APACHE error log each time for authentication "AH01617: user wcadmin: authentication failure for "/Windchill/servlet/WindchillAuthGW/wt.httpgw.HTTPServer/ping/": Password Mismatch". But the other jobs (CREO, CATIA, SIS....)  get published successfully.The weird thing is after sometime the issue will get resolved by itself and APE jobs will publishing successfully and issue again appearing after few days:( Can anyone help me understand why this authentication is failing even when the setup is correct?.

I have created a customized menu using custom action. onclick of this action i want to perform some UI validation so for that i have created a validation service and implementing post select validation in java class. i have made an entry to register action into service.properties and service.properties.xconf as below in service.propties i have addedwt.services/svc/default/com.ptc.core.ui.validation.UIComponentValidator/twx_custom_mashup/null/0=ext.example.rest.validator.MyValidator/duplicate service.properties.xconf change:  <Service context="default" name="com.ptc.core.ui.validation.UIComponentValidator"><Option serviceClass="ext.example.rest.validator.MyValidator"selector="twx_custom_mashup"requestor="null"cardinality="duplicate" /></Service> suggest me if i am doing anything wrong. if its ok its not making a call to validation service. appreciate any help on it in advance.Thanks

Have any of you set up NX Reuse Library in Windchill? This is supported (apparently) and seems to work ok. Documentation is reasonably clear but I'm not sure about this line below here:If the recommended workflow is that the WGM generates a first pass ReuseLibraryFileTypes_vxxxx.xml and then the update preference is set to now, what is the process for updating the XML with data from the server after that? Does the preference need to be toggled or does the library update on it's own by virtue of it being connected to Windchill? 

Hi, I have a list of Serial Numbers that I need to "translate" into Base Part Numbers. Is there a WRS endpoint that takes a serial number or list of serial numbers that returns the base part number?  TIA

Hi Everyone,   I've created a data utility and have called in the Type and Attribute Manager to overwrite the UI for one of the out of the box variables on a custom document type. This works when the variable is referenced in one of the document layout pages, however, the attribute I want to modify also appears in the item identification information section of the document and in various other tables throughout Windchill. From my understanding, the item identification isn't defined in the type and attribute manager, but rather through the display identification service.   Is it possible to create another data utility/service to automatically overwrite this ootb attribute (only in this document type) globally, rather than having to register the data utility to the attribute in the Layout window and creating other services which implement different interfaces, such as the DisplayIdentification interface?   Does anyone have any insights or experience creating a global overw

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.0.0 We are implementing ERP-PLM linkage using Windchill REST API.On the ERP side, EngineeringChangeRequest data is configured as JSON and then executed by calling the endpoint of the Windchill REST API.It operates without problem in Windchill 12.1, but an error occurs in Windchill 12.0.There seems to be an issue where a problem occurs while importing the CSRF Token.Here are the errors that I facedWhen running on HTTP:ECR creation failed: Error: Network response was not okWhen running JavaScript (Node.js)ECR creation failed: {error: {code: 'OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED',message: 'The operation is not supported'}}Anyway, the situation is fine in Windchill 12.x, but the problem continues to occur in Windchill 12.0.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translated the text from Korean to English using google translate Subject - Windchill 12.

Has anyone upgraded from 12.0.2 or prior to WC 12.1.1 or 13.0 and looked at the new process for assigning multiple assignees/reviewers to change tasks? Described in this article (https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS125788?source=search)   I did a rehost upgrade from 12.0.2 to 13.0.1 (to start my WC 13 Upgrade planning), and when reviewing - the "Assignment Method" menu is not present. Opened a case with PTC, however the first tech response was "reinstall Windchill" 😀  

I have a requirement to create EPMDocument's in Windchill using Windchill API's..The native CAD files are stored in a folder drive, for which we have a need to create bulk create EPMDocument objects using API.No as-stored, No family table data.I want to create plain EPMDocument's with minimal System OOTB attributes & few custom IBA's.I want to understand how this objects behave in the system when compared with EPMDocument objects that were created using CAD authoring application.Please note I have only one option to create these objects using API.

Hello,   I have been working as a Windchill Developer for more than 2 years. I struggled a lot in the beginning stage to find solution to some of my queries since many of the answers required some pre-requisite knowledge which I did not possess at the time. I am planning to write some articles on the customization topics with basic details so that people like me at their beginning stage could get all the required details in a single place.   Some of the topics I will be addressing are as follows: i)   Listeners ii)  Adding custom actions and Filters iii) Sending/Receiving data between interfaces. iv) Dashboard designing using model view controller. v)  Custom utility to do data correction.   I will update the list on the go and let me know if any topics can be added to the list by you. It would be a great help for all the developers like us.    Thanks.   Regards, HS

Subtype of WTPart OIR doesn't work when auto-associate to EPMDocument is used during part creation in Windchill PDMLink (12.1.2.0). What could be the reason? Should we change any preferences ?

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.0 and Datecode with CPS M030-CPS14We're attempting to update Alternate usernames in our dev environment by using an infoengine task detailed in CS233456. It appears that case is not updating bulk users but a specific user. I was looking for a way to update multiple users. I created an infoengine group of WTUsers (small subset of all users) and tried using the foreach tag to parse through those users to update their alt username but that hasn't worked. I may be missing something and was wondering if there's anyone that could help with.
