Hello Team,

 

Could you please help me for below issue.

Creo drawing lifecycle state in title block mismatch with Drawings state in Windchill. But it is taking related CAD part/ASM Windchill state.

 

Thank you

Kumar B

By default Creo is pulling the lifecycle state from the first object (part or assembly) added to the drawing. If you want the drawing lifecycle state, add ':d' to the end of the parameter name. Example: PTC_WM_LIFECYCLE_STATE:d

Can you give more information? Maybe an image or the parameter that it's looking for.

Hi Arnold,

 

The drawing lifecycle state in Windchill should be Processing (newly created drawing). However, when I create a drawing using a CAD Part whose Windchill state is Under Change, the drawing’s title block shows the same lifecycle state as the .prt instead of the drawing’s own state. How can we fix this issue?

 

Thanks

Kumar B
