Solved: The value for MASS_GR cannot be changed

tperry · ‎Dec 10, 2015

A user is receiving the following error. "The value for MASS_GR cannot be changed". The material properties have the correct units and agree with the standards we apply. Any thoughts of what could be the issue? Thanks CREO2 m120 ~ Windchill 10 m20

Tim,

Parameter Mass_GR is relation based.

Try updating mass properties using File > Prepare > Change Mass properties > Generate report and try Save and upload.

This is all about Creo, not sure about Windchill as Windchill is out of my expertise.

Hi,

- He is checking-out the drawing and part from Windchill.

- Delete the model from the .prt file

- Append a step into the same .prt file

- Assign new material from a library

- Model check, to assign missing tolerance, and various notes.

- Save and upload

o Failed upload: “The value for MASS_GR cannot be changed” shows at this point

Note:

- We have made sure the material properties agree with standard before and after error. (Millimeter kilogram second)

- The material library is our standard and has been viewed for proper units, in the event units was recently changed.

- Even “save and upload” as checked-out, with no changes results in the same upload error.

Hopefully this offers some good information , and I appreciate your help.

Kind regards,

Tim

Tim,

Is it in all of the files or data specific? Can you upload a sample file to look?
