Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I need users within a specific group to access and initiate workflows.Description: I have created a new product "Parts" and set up the groups and users.I need the user within the new "CAD User Group" to initiate a workflow.The issue is they can not see the Templates option under "Parts".I added both the Workflow Authors and Workflow Administrators groups to the user with no change.I can see if I add the Org Admin group to the user they can see templates, but then they have too much authority.

Hello Everyone,I’m currently facing a challenge in Windchill where I need to terminate a bulk promotion request that has been assigned to a single user. However, I couldn’t find any existing functionality within Windchill that allows termination of such requests.Has anyone come across a similar situation or found a workaround for this?Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,KB

I have a scenario where I need to traverse to to the Upstream eBOM part using following API -> wt.fc.PersistenceHelper.manager.navigate(mfg_Part,wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.UPSTREAM_ROLE, wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.class); Above API returns QueryResult for all iterations of upstream WTPart which had equivalent link between them and mBOM part. However if the user iterates eBOM part but does not update equivalent link manually, I would still need to be able to traverse to previously linked upstream part  Need assistance with finding link to previous Non -Latest eBOM wtPart to fetch further associated documents from it  QueryResult upstreamResult = wt.fc.PersistenceHelper.manager.navigate(parentPart,wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.UPSTREAM_ROLE, wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.class);LOGGER.debug(">>>>> upstreamResult : " + upstreamResult.size());while (upstreamResult.hasMoreElements()) {Object partObj = (WTPart) upstreamRe

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I have managed to find the "com.ptc.windchill.pdmlink.change.server.impl" package on my PC but there is no package that exists in there called "WorkflowProcessHelper". According to the Javadoc that is available via the client, this class exists. It is also called in one of the OOTB workflow robots.Description: I am trying to establish where classes, that I am unable to see on the server but are called in workflow robots, are stored. Can anybody shed light on this?

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I have managed to ensure that users have to provide text in the "Comments" field for all workflow tasks in Windchill. I achieved this using the method detailed under the "Instructions for Windchill PDMLink 10.0 - 12.1" at https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS35488?source=search.Description: The issue with this solution is that the solution applied to all workflow tasks. I would like to be able to only apply this solution to workflow tasks that are generated as a result of them being produced from a certain workflow. The article found at https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS35488?source=search includes a function that is added into the custom.jsfrag file. I was wondering if it would be possible to include text in this function that will result in the result I am looking for. For example, some sort of "If" condition that checks the "Process" attribute value of the workflow task to see if it matches a certain value before apply

Version: Windchill 12.1   Use Case: understand why some documents visible in the Windchill UI are not returned in the OData API response and to identify the required configuration to make both environments consistent. Description:   Hello, We are querying part information and associated documents using the same OData request on two different Windchill environments. In our test environment, all documents are returned correctly with the following request: /Windchill/servlet/odata/ProdMgmt/Parts?$filter=Number eq 'XXXX'& $expand=Versions($filter=State/Value eq 'RELEASED' or State/Value eq 'IMPORTED'; $expand=DescribedBy($expand=DescribedBy($expand=Attachments,Representations)), References($expand=References($expand=Attachments,Representations)), PartDocAssociations($expand=RelatedCADDoc($expand=Attachments,Representations)))   However, in the production environment, some documents that are visible in the Windchill UI under DescribedBy or References do not a

Hi Team,Is there anyone knows how we can create custom OData rest service in Windchill, please share here if anyone have any solutions. Thanks in Advance.

Is there a way to automatically have the ‘Send Email Notification’ checkbox selected by default when creating Ad-Hoc Activities in Windchill? 

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Differentiate between mail notifications coming from each environment so that users don't get confusedDescription: Emails sent by Windchill are not very reliable in terms of, from which environments are coming. Sometimes I see the email of the test server server-test@company.com, sometimes I just receive an email where the FROM(on the email) matches the user's email (the user to whom the email is sent). How can I reliably differentiate all emails coming from the test from the ones coming from the production, since the username does not change, but the URL of the environment changes from env to env, it would be convenient to trace that information somewhere and not rely on the user email. Thanks in advance, 

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: User wants to have attribute that is shared across various views but at the same time Change-Management controllable. Enterprise Data looks like something good for that but I see no way to create it directly through UI, compared to Load File - https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/plus/r12.0.2.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center%2FExpMPM_CreatingObjectsUsingLoader.html%23Description: Hello, according to this URL there is a way to create Enterprise Data using LoadFile (it requires some preferences setup but that's not so important).  https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/plus/r12.0.2.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center%2FExpMPM_CreatingObjectsUsingLoader.html%23 Question now is - is there any OOTB Create wizard for this Enterprise Data, or is it only supposed to be created through load files? 

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: When installing Windchill 13.0.2.3 on RHEL 9.6 how do you get it to run as a service?Description: I have Windchill 13.0.2.3 running on RHEL 9.6 quite successfully as a monolithic server (SQL, Application, HTTP server and SOLR al on one VM) for testing purposes. I can make everything run as foreground application using the commands in this article: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS49725 I've succeeded in getting Apache to run as a service using systemd unit files, but I cannot get either SOLR or Windchill to start. I've written a script for Windchill that opens a Windchill shell and then enters the command 'Windchill start'. When I run that from a command line the method servers start correctly in xterm, but when I use a unit file to run from systemd then it fails to start, even when I run it as the same user, or as root.  Would anyone share the startup script and unit file that they have used to get SOLR & Windchill

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 13.0 and Datecode with CPS 13.0.2.1We are about to upgrade from Creo 11.0.2.0 to Creo 12.4.2 and need to re-configure our Windchill visualisation to use the new version of Creo.I have tried to find out how to do this using the help system and knowledge base, but have been unable to work out how to do it.Please provide step by step instructions to change Creo version used by Windchill Visualisation.

Version: Windchill 13.0   Use Case: Autoassociate preference is turned on and a custom class that extends DefaultAutoAssociatePartFinderCreator implements AutoAssociatePartFinderCreator runs to select the correct subtype based on Product context. Autoassociate created WTParts don't have the particular subtype defaults. Description: I customized the AutoAssociatePartFinderCreator class to look at the product context a CAD document is being checked into and based on the context selects the appropriate subtype of WTPart to auto associate.  This works as expected and the correct WTPart subtype is associated on check in based on context name.    However, the subtype defaults and cascading attribution I set up for that particular subtype doesn't carry over. Instead, it looks as though the WTPart subtype is created based on the default parent WTPart.    When I create a new part in the context, it follows the WTPart subtype attributes and defaults I set up.
