Version: Windchill 13.1 Use Case: I am experiencing an authentication priority issue after upgrading Windchill from 12.1.2.4 to 13.1.2.0, and I would appreciate advice from anyone who has faced and resolved a similar situation.Description: ■ Previous Environment (12.1.2.4)User information stored in WindchillDSPassword authentication performed via JNDI adapter, using Active Directory■ Current Environment (13.1.2.0)Replaced WindchillDS with OpenDJIntended configuration is the same as before:User information in OpenDJPassword authentication by Active Directory via JNDI adapter■ ProblemWith the same configuration applied in 13.1.2.0, OpenDJ is being used for authentication first, instead of Active Directory.However:The propertiesmapcredentials.admin.adapterswt.federation.org.directoryServicesare identical to the working configuration in 12.1.2.4.If I remove the OpenDJ-related settings from<HTTPServer>/conf/conf.d/30-app-Windchill-Auth.conf,Active Directory authentication works c

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.0.2We intend to extract all relevant information and generate a consolidated file that maps each manufacturer part to its corresponding impacted end part (Commercial Reference Part, i.e., WTPart). Our system currently contains approximately 100,000 manufacturer parts, and this activity will ensure complete traceability and alignment between manufacturer parts and associated WTParts.While the query performs correctly for individual parts, it does not scale effectively for large datasets.When executed for the complete dataset of approximately 45000 manufacturer parts, the query requires more than 12 hours and still does not complete the report generation. The performance degradation makes the current approach impractical for production use or recurring data extraction activities.

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: I want to use the Suggested Value List constraint in PartsLink. From the title, I understand it as a list of values (LOV) that can also be filled with free text if needed—a suggested selection that users can refer to, but with the flexibility to enter their own values. My goal is to assign this to attributes to give users more freedom in some cases, while still providing guidance with a predefined list they can use as a reference.Description: Hello everyone,I have a question regarding Suggested Value Lists in the Parts Link module. When I add this constraint to an attribute, I would expect—based on the name—that I get a selection similar to a Legal Value List, but with the option for users to add new values themselves. That’s how I interpret “Suggested Value List,” but it doesn’t seem to work that way for me. When I set it up in the constraint, I provide a LOV, which I can select from, but I can’t add anything myself.Can anyone explain h

Version: Windchill 12.0   Use Case: Installed CPS 12.0.2.26 Try to Stop Windchill Service (e.g. for backup purposes) Description: When I try to stop Windchill service within "Services" or by running 'sc stop "PTC Windchill"', it would not stop correctly.  In "Services" I get an Error 1053:   'sc stop "PTC Windchill"' just reports "STOP PENDING", but nothing more (no additional error message).   After around 4 minutes, the service finally stops, but I guess, that windows just terminates all corresponding processes after a certain time.   MethodServer.log reports several [Servlet engine stop] wt.system.err - WARNING: The web application [Windchill] appears to have started a thread named [xyz] but has failed to stop it. This is very likely to create a memory leak. Stack trace of thread:   I updated JDK vom 11.0.13 to 11.0.30, but nothing changed.  

Version: Windchill 13.1 Use Case: for a new version of a tool we provide, we want to create a custom page with multiple tabs. currently we used classic simple html / javascript - but we want to upgrade to mvc components to maintain more the "windchill ui look"Description: at first I thought about using a custom wizard.a wizard has in general multiple tabs - but the concept isn't really matching as the tool should have tabs for different manage actions / checks. wizards reflect more a step by step process.I'm looking for a way to build a page like the windchill object detail pages.For tool I'm planning about 5 fixed tabs. each tab would have multiple tables, radios, checkboxes and input fields.Any suggestion how to achieve this?thanks in advance!

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I have noticed it is possible to allocate the same part instance object into multiple different parent part instances.Description: In reality, this would never happen.

Millions of files and there is bound to be some errors. 6 in fact which blocks me removing an old vault.  They are all "public_params.xml" files that show up in the vault but will not move. I ran WTContenVerify and it reports back Business object missing. So I get that I have a valid FVItem but the object its tied to is done, a Derived Image. Some related articles on this topic: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS121641?source=search https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS110809?source=search https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS280885?source=search It sounds like I have to prune the FVItem, Holder2Content, ApplicationData related to these entries. Anyone been down this road before? Tips appreciated. Was hoping there was a WinRU to fix this.

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Searching for the latest document in Windchill Desktop Integration in officeDescription: The DTI feature in MS Office, for us rarely open as a list of documents, so we use the search feature. The standard search setting is though to show all revisions of a document. This clutters the output and easily gets users to chose the non-latest revision.  Where can this preference be set?  

How do I get the folder ID? Right now I am trying to use the Windchill REST Services site where it generates the request and response for you.

Version: Windchill 13.0   Use Case: Using the + sign on multi-valued attributes with enumeration or pick list is an awful UX design. Has anyone built a data utility or interface JSP to populate using drop down checklist or a multi-select check list (like the type manager has). Description: when selecting multiple values for an attribute, there is a + (plus) sign to add another row to pick more values.   All other interfaces in the world (including type selection in the search ) us pull-down checkboxes, or pick list    has anyone already built the customization to do this that can be easily plugged in.  (Hopefully would be universal to handle any attribute)
