How to show Life Cycle States in a drop down in Create part jsp page

[Rajesh_A]

Hi,

I would like to know how to show all Life Cycle States of a specific Life Cycle template in a drop down in Create Part jsp file.

So that the User can select the desired Life Cycle state from drop down while creating Part.

I have an idea to use DataUtility through customization.

But still looking for best solution to achieve this through Configuration.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry for this.

This defeats the purpose the lifecycle.
Getting to a state thru a process is everything for the business.

You are absolutely right Mr.Lockwood.

But here the requirement is something different. Customer is expecting lots of Life Cycle States which equals to like "In Work".

So please let me know if you have any solution for the same. Thanks.

Probably only choice is load from file (CSV >> XML) using the LoadFromFile framework (Windchill shell). Can load at any desired state.

As per requirement, the user should get the option to select the LC state in Create Part wizard page.
