How to remove blank space in Target State for resulting object in WC12

[BA_10670508]

Hi ,

In WC12 for every resulting object the default target state is blank How we can able to remove that or Is there any way to disable it?

You want it to say "Change" as the default?

Hi @avillanueva ,

Yes I want change as default target state.

Check your lifecycle state for those resulting items. Make sure that "Change" has a state checked for it. You will have to update lifecycles for existing items to pick this up.

@avillanueva  But In WC12 the default target state is blank so How can we remove that

[avillanueva]

I do not think that this is default so to speak. You need to setup your lifecycles to have that checked to tell it what state you want to move to when objected are completed by a Change Notice. Defaults targets are Change and Obsolescence.  In mine, I do not use Obsolescence so since there is only 1, it always defaults to "Change" which is mapped to Released.

Hi @avillanueva ,

Yes it is mapped properly I have enabled Released state from Change but still the default is blank only.

Please check - https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS370326.

Any other option I can do?

If this is truly a bug, then looks like only recourse is to update to CPS 9. Looks recently updated too. Have you raised with Tech Support to see if there is a workaround or special condition that causes this?

What do you have for this preference? Showing mine:

Also, just asking, did you modify the lifecycle to adjust what "Change" transition maps to? If so, existing objects would need to have their lifecycles reset to pick it up.

Yes it is set to "Yes" for me as well

Hi @BA_10670508 

Have you tried to set a type and attribute default value?

Hi @HelesicPetr , 

After configuring the default value in change record, still the blank value is auto selected in release target state. 

@BA_10670508 @avillanueva - Can you please suggest if you got any solution on the same. 

Thanks and Best Regards
