Version: Windchill 13.0
Use Case: I'm trying to make an attribute to get who created a CAD file back to a CAD parameter.
Description:
I know there's a attribute under preference management>Workgroup Manager Client>Mapping System Attributes and File Properties>Created By Attribute, the problem is that using this mapping the value received on the cad parameter is username (username:organization name), what I need is to only the username, without (username:organization name).
I've tried making an alias attribute using this mapping iterationInfo.creator^wt.org.WTUser~name, it worked but I couldn't pass it back to CAD, I undestand that is a limitation from alias atribute and calculated attribute.
I've also tried to add a value to Mapping Custom System Attributes and File Properties as DESENHISTA:iterationInfo.creator^wt.org.WTUser~name
DESENHISTA:iterationInfo.creator
DESENHISTA:wt.org.WTUser
DESENHISTA:wt.org.WTUser~name
but none of them worked.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Just needed to set Utilities > Preference Management > Display > Display unique user name = NO
I did found a guide on how to do so in Creo within this article - Article - CS72711 - How To Extract Part of the Names from PTC_WM_CREATED_BY and PTC_WM_MODIFIED_BY parameters which will show in the drawing table in Creo Parametric, but my goal is to do the handling in Windchill.
