I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.0.1Does WindchillPDMLink is compatible or has any MCP (Model Context Protocol) that we can use to feed and interact with our Internal AI servers.

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: The link below explains how to make custom attributes available in the criteria of an advanced search. However, I have noticed that I have custom attributes available that I can add to the criteria of an advanced search without following the process detailed in the article. https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/cs180432?_gl=1*cmfofr*_gcl_au*MjAyMjY0MTgwMi4xNzcwNzE2ODM5*_ga*NjYzNjgzODU1LjE3NzA3MTY1MDQ.*_ga_7NMP2MSYPM*czE3NzE0NDE4NjIkbzQwJGcwJHQxNzcxNDQxODcxJGo1MSRsMCRoMA..Description: Can anybody shed light on the circumstances that would require me following the process in the article?

(Running Windchill 11.2.1.17) Hi All, I have come across a rather annoying issue with Policy Administration and the sub-domains. I was messing around with restricting access to certain folders via sub-domains, following exactly what this thread said to do. I created a new role 'Confidential Users' and added people to this role, however, I wanted to rename it, so I deleted it and created a new role under a new name (It didn't give me the option to rename so I did this). Then I went back to the policy administration tab to add/edit the access control rule to use the new role, however, all previous access control rules disappeared, and I cannot add in new ones - the create new policy button is gone, leaving only the edit, delete and list buttons as seen in the image below. So now I have a folder that I cannot delete because I cannot see it due to the sub-domains access control rule, and a sub-domain I cannot add new rules to, thus preventing me from ever seeing th

Could someone tell me how to change the icon of a user-defined type? What about the local types, can I change their icons? Thanks.

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: We have a usecase where there are some child parts in a Product structure. These child parts are having the same classification node and likely the same classification attributes., but these are different part numbers for a business reason. The requirement is that it must be possible to select these parts with same classification , inside a PSB, and bulk edit the classification attributes. These parts are easy to find in the PSB as we use autonaming.Description: I have a custom wizard which has some other steps, and one of the steps is the bulk edit of classification attributes for chosen parts in PSB (having same Class nodes assigned).How to show the edit classification step in my custom wizard (as a wizard step)? 

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.2.1we are not able to activate a new or an existing ditribution target on our systems (DEV and PRD).The article https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS342745 says the issue should be solved on version 12.1.2.1, but we still have the problem.Here are the errors that I facedATTENTION: il file "D:\ptc\windchill12\windchill\codebase\com/ptc/windchill/esi/ESIResponseMetaInfo.xml" non contiene l'elemento informativo sul gruppo con nome logico "DeletedSCCResourceLinks"

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case:1. My client makes use of "Part" objects.2. They have a need to represent instances of these "Parts" as instances in parent objects.3. For example, my customer makes use of "Parent Part 1" and "Parent Part 2". "Child Part 1" is used in both parent parts.4. My customer has a requirement to make use of objects in Windchill to represent the different instances of the child part referenced by the two parent parts.5. These instances should be uniquely identified by serial numbers.6. It is important that the objects being used to represent the child part instances represent the form of the child part at a certain revision.7. It is not acceptable for the objects being used to represent the child part instances to simply represent the part master and not a specific revision of the part. It was previously suggested to me that making use of "Part Configurations" and "Part Instance" objects in Windchill is often not the best way to approach management of

What happened to a post asking about availability of FIDES 2022 model in Windchill Risk and Reliability? It can no longer be accessed. Moreover, when is FIDES 2022 planned for release? Said post had a response that it's preliminary set in roadmap for a release in 2024. Any updates on that?

Hi All, How to get Part request object by Rest api.Thanks   

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I am trying to bulk load part instance and part configuration objects into Windchill and to establish the links between them and the parts they are related to.Description: I was hoping to be able to do this with the REST API but it doesn't look like there are end points available to allow this to be done. Can anybody recommend an alternative approach to achieving the same goal?

I have a Promotion request that uses a conditional Router to route depending on object type.  I have used the one from the KB that works well,  shown below.    try {     wt.fc.QueryResult qr = wt.maturity.MaturityHelper.service.getPromotionTargets((wt.maturity.PromotionNotice)primaryBusinessObject);     while(qr.hasMoreElements())     {         wt.fc.Persistable pers = (wt.fc.Persistable) qr.nextElement();         if (pers.getClass().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("wt.doc.WTDocument"))         {             System.out.println(" ******** It is a WTDocument  ******** ");             result = "route1";         }         else if (pers.getClass()

http://sites.google.com/site/newvillagepdm/useful-sql-scripts/unused-family-tables Without proper maintenance, you PDM system can become a little shop of horrors. Feed me, feed me, feed me!  It should be the job of the system admin to make sure that items are purged and unrelated files cleared from the vaults.  By what about the librarian's role?  Are you using all the models that are in the system? What about large family table libraries of common hardware? I noticed a while back the following behavior, workspace operation times seemed to be affected by the use of large family tables.  To test I created a 16 part assembly, one with no family tables, one with small family tables, and the third with very large family tables. You can see the affect below. Note the log scale. Remember, there are less than 20 objects in the workspace for all of these.  Slowness was on the server side. So, how well am I using these family tables? Am I carrying instances that I nev

I got now al list of all workspaces with their corresponding user and workspace. But i am unable to figure out how i can add the size per workspace to it. I have tried to add `EPMSupporting data` (`EPMSupporting data.Data`)and that looks more like the blobname or so. Any ideas how to do this?
