How to get Non Latest Linked Upstream WTPart via API when the Equivalence Link is not updated

[Rohaan]

I have a scenario where I need to traverse to to the Upstream eBOM part using following API -> wt.fc.PersistenceHelper.manager.navigate(mfg_Part,
wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.UPSTREAM_ROLE, wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.class);

Above API returns QueryResult for all iterations of upstream WTPart which had equivalent link between them and mBOM part. 

However if the user iterates eBOM part but does not update equivalent link manually, I would still need to be able to traverse to previously linked upstream part 

Need assistance with finding link to previous Non -Latest eBOM wtPart to fetch further associated documents from it

QueryResult upstreamResult = wt.fc.PersistenceHelper.manager.navigate(parentPart,

wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.UPSTREAM_ROLE, wt.associativity.EquivalenceLink.class);

LOGGER.debug(">>>>> upstreamResult : " + upstreamResult.size());

while (upstreamResult.hasMoreElements()) {

Object partObj = (WTPart) upstreamResult.nextElement();

upstreamPart = (WTPart) partObj;

LOGGER.debug(">>>>> Upstream Part Iteration :" + upstreamPart.getIdentity()

+ upstreamPart.getIterationDisplayIdentifier());

boolean isLatestUpstreamPart = VersionControlHelper.isLatestIteration(upstreamPart);

LOGGER.debug(">>>>> Is Latest Upstream Part? : " + isLatestUpstreamPart);

if (isLatestUpstreamPart) {

flag = true;

LOGGER.debug(">>> Inside Is LatestUpstreamPart True : " + flag);

descByResult = PersistenceHelper.manager.navigate(upstreamPart,

EPMDescribeLink.DESCRIBED_BY_ROLE, epmDescribeCriteria, true);

} 

IF NOT LATEST  -> Need to fetch previous linked object with Equivalence link

}

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Rohaan 

Thank you for your question. 

Your post appears well documented but has not yet received any response. I am replying to raise awareness. Hopefully, another community member will be able to help.

Also, feel free to add any additional information you think might be relevant. It sometimes helps to have screenshots to better understand what you are trying to do.

Best regards,

I'm not any help but I have been searching for info on how to Collect the Upstream wtPart when users are in the process of Revising a document with Described by links to wtParts.

The OOB behavior is to collect the latest wtpart and that is in the manufacturing downstream view. As far as I can tell, this is also in the Revise window.
