I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.0.0Unable to access windchill UI through browser or file explorer. It seems like within our windchill server, the service "Windchill PDMLink" automatically stops. If I start the service, it just goes back to stop. Attempted to start the service through command prompt as well as through Task Manager but it continues to switch to stopped.Here are the errors that I faced within windchill UI:Login Authorization FailedThe server could not verify that you are authorized to access this document. The credentials you provided are either invalid (for example, you entered the wrong password) or your password has expired. Alternately, your browser may be unable to provide the credentials that are required for authorization. Contact your organization�s administrator for more specific information about this error.

Hi @MikeLockwood, I have the same query in windchill 12.0.2. I want to link WTPart and WTDocument using described by and referenced by pattern. I saw the document you attached and I am wondering if same type of official document exists for Windchill 12. I tried to find if but I can't. It will be really helpful if you have any clue about this.  Thank you in advance for your time and support.   Reference topic: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Windchill/link-between-WTPart-and-WTDoc-for-15-000-files-as-quot-described/m-p/702276#M63254 

Version: Windchill 11.1 Use Case: I would like to add custom designated Global parameters to the search results window.Description: I am creating custom searches for CAD Documents that I want to share with the users and I need the search results windows to be able to display custom designated global parameters. For example, I want to be able to search by our PROJECT parameter, but to find the correct parts within the search results, I need to be able to display other designated global parameters such as Title1, Title2.  The only columns I can add are system parameters as shown below.Any suggestions?  

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: I’m configuring the Guest role in Windchill, but I’m encountering an issue: the Guest role cannot view or create workspaces.Here’s the situation:* The Guest role is set up with read-only access to released objects.* Despite configuring access control to allow Read and Download permissions on object types like WTPart     and EPMDocument, the workspace option is still unavailable for users with this role.* We have also configured lifecycle states to ensure the Guest role has Read access to the Released state. Question:What specific permissions or additional configurations are required to enable workspace visibility and creation for the Guest role? Any insights or guidance on how to set this up effectively would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

We have created FVA field "Test Suite document short Title" and added in Testcases type and we configured the same field in query. For some test cases its showing the Test suite document short title and for some its not showing. Please find the below screenshot for reference .       Thanks and Regards, Chandan Prasad    

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I want to run the Siemens NX part_utility command on everything in my workspace.Description: I want to run the Siemens NX part_utility command on everything in my workspace, specifically "part_utility -managed_mode=no -d -cleanup".  This will do a part cleanup on every .prt file in the workspace directory.  It won't run in the PTC Places folder, since it's not a real directory, but navigating to the actual .wfs folder will allow the utility to run.  The problem is, Windchill doesn't see the files as modified, to allow me to check them in, even though the file date/time has been updated. What is the proper way to run these utilities on Windchill data in the workspace?  or do I have to export all of the data out, run the utility, and then import it all back into workspace?

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.0.0I would like to move multiple documents at once. Is it possible to do this from a browser, loadFromFile, or a spreadsheet?Each document I want to move can be identified based on its unique value, so it is difficult to batch move documents from the browser.複数のドキュメントを一括で移動したいのですが、ブラウザまたはloadFromFileや、スプレッドシートから一括移動は可能でしょうか。移動したいドキュメントはそれぞれユニークな値を元に特定ができるので、ブラウザから絞り込んで一括で移動ということが難しいです。

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: I am working in a Java workflow Expression robot, on an EPMDocument. My end result is I need to create new translation packages based on what that document had been translated into in past versions and iterations. I have the Starting Document, and all version, and I have the target translation package. How can I get the actual TranslationLink object, and get the language attribute, or how can I get the language of the translated package?Description: I tried querying for the Translation link like this, but  windchill indicates that source is not an attribute of TranslationLink. wt.query.QuerySpec qs = new wt.query.QuerySpec(com.ptc.arbortext.windchill.translation.TranslationLink.class); qs.appendWhere(new wt.query.SearchCondition(com.ptc.arbortext.windchill.translation.TranslationLink.class, com.ptc.arbortext.windchill.translation.TranslationLink.SOURCE_ROLE,wt.query.SearchCondition.EQUAL, epmDoc.getIdentity())); wt.fc.Quer

Hi. I am wondering what the best policy is when it comes to name, file name and number? For reference we use a separate Bill of Material application nor do we put BOMs on drawings.   As of late I have begun putting a "-" on name simply to make copy/pasting parts and assembles a tiny bit quicker. But I am wondering if it is necessary to add the file extension part to file name/new number? See attachment.   Does it make any difference? What are your policies and guidelines at your workplace? All feedback welcome.   We are using Creo 7.0 and Windchill 11.1 Thanks!  

Based on the current REST API I was able to upload primary content following some examples using the uploadstage1action and uploadstage3action. However, my use case is to provide an integration that allows to update the primary content. Clearly this can be done easily via the web UI.There is no obvious method using the REST API. Using the example on a document which already has primary content the uploadstage3action fails with indication that a document cannot have more than 1 primary content.There are no methods to delete the current primary content, nor to update (PUT/PATCH methods).This seems like a very normal use case for an integration, and I'm wondering what I'm missing here.I'm testing with windchill 12, WRS Document Management Domain, API Version 5

@satre-2 Hi Shreyas,Reference Topic - https://community.ptc.com/t5/Windchill/Check-for-Checked-Out-objects-in-the-Affected-Data-section-on-a/m-p/118248#M13997Do you have a similar example for release target rule? I am looking to setup Release Target rule in a Change Notice workflow similar to Checkout Rule you shared in the above post. 

Currently, the system’s Audit Report function records user login information based on user login sessions. Since the default session duration is 30 minutes, any re-login within this 30-minute window (even if on a different device or browser) will not be recorded in the Audit. • There is currently no configuration option to record every single login attempt in the Audit. • To improve this feature, it would be helpful if each login attempt could be recorded or if there could be an option for customers to choose between recording every login attempt or ignoring re-logins within a 30-minute window.
