Create and Interact with Objects from Windchill Home Page

Create and Interact with Objects from Windchill Home Page

Currently, users cannot create or interact with objects easily from the Windchill Home Page. Please add the regular set of Windchill 'Actions' commands to the Updates section of the Home Page - see images below.

Benefits:

  • The Home Page becomes a hub for users to create new objects (Documents, Problem Report, Change Request, Change Notice, Promotion Request, etc). No extra searching/navigating required.
  • Improved usability for users - Use the 'Updates' section to find your recently checked in CAD/objects and then create a new Change Notice/Promotion Request. No extra searching/navigating required.

For any new objects users will have to first pick the Context - just like they have to do when creating objects from the Search Results page. This should be easy to PTC to implement since most of the code/icons already exist elsewhere in Windchill.
