Partslink import csv/xml with Global Enumerations already created in Windchill?

[MarianaSousa]

Hello colleagues of Partslink,

Does anyone have imported a csv/xml of Partslinks attributes massively with a global enumeration already created in Windchill? 

What do you write the specific collumn?

Is it the internal name of the Enumeration created? I would assume yes.

Thanks!!

Hi,

We use xml file for importing the classification and PTC recommends this as the best practice

Its been some time. I think I did an initial load this way but at far as the enumeration, its either the internal name or logical name. Make them both the same and you should have no issue.

EnumeratedList

Enumerated value list. You can provide a local or global enumerated value list. Local enumeration constraints use the following format: LOCAL##<sort type>##<internal name>##<display_name>~~<internal_name>##<display_name> where: • <sort_type>—The sort type value is Automatic_Sort or Manual_Sort. • <internal name>##<display name>—Identify the internal name and display name of the enumeration entry. • ~~ —Use two tilde characters to separate multiple entries. For example: LOCAL##Manual_Sort##red1##Light Red~~red2##Dark Red~~green1##Light Green Global enumeration constraints use the following format: GLOBAL##<enumeration>##<parent enumeration>##<organization>##<organizer name>##/<domain> where: • <enumeration>—The internal name of the enumeration. • <parent enumeration>—If the enumeration is a sub-enumeration, specify the internal name of its parent enumeration. If the enumeration does not have a parent enumeration, leave this field blank. • <organization>—The Owning Organization value for the enumeration. • <organizer name>—The internal name of the organizer that holds the enumeration. • /<domain>—The Domain value for the enumeration. For example: GLOBAL##Countries##LocaleCodes##Site##Org_Locales##/System GLOBAL##LocaleCodes####Site##Org_Locales##/System
