BOM Notes not possible to disable copyover

[vitorbarboza]

Version Windchill 13. Disable the copyover from BOM Notes when the user executes a New Branch action to extend a BOM from one manufacturing site to another. After disabling propertie BOM Notes are still copying to new branch.

Acording to PTC article https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS406143?&as=1 there is technical limitation for the BOM Notes update in Windchill 13.

Version Windchill 13.0.2.4. Disable the copyover from BOM Notes when the user executes a New Branch action to extend a BOM from one manufacturing site to another. After disabling propertie BOM Notes are still copying to new branch.

Steps to reproduce: Create a BOM, associate BOM Notes, open in BOM Transformer and execute the action New Branch . The BOM Notes should not be copied over.

Adjusts that have been made to try to solve it according to the article CS404913 https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS404913,

After updating the property mentioned in the article, we still encountered issues with the BOM notes being copied:

com.ptc.windchill.mpml.copyOver.mapsb.newBranch.create.wt.part.WTPart
by removing the following from: F:\ptc\Windchill_13.0\Windchill\codebase\com\ptc\windchill\mpml\xconfs\mpmlink.properties.xconf

<AddToProperty name="com.ptc.windchill.mpml.copyOver.mapsb.newBranch.create.wt.part.WTPart" value="WCTYPE|wt.part.WTPart~MBA|note@WCTYPE|wt.note.NoteHolderNoteLink"/>

upon executing a new branch, the BOM Notes are still being copied from one Branch to another.

How to stop copying over BOM Notes on BOM Transformer in Windchill 13?

I opened ticket to PTC, but they replied with article https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS406143?&as=1 saying there is technical limitation for the BOM Notes update in Windchill 13.

enable logger com.ptc.windchill.associativity.copyover.CopyOverPropertiesParser to trace , reproduce the use case and check for wt.note.NoteHolderNoteLink

Hello,

I have enabled the logger com.ptc.windchill.associativity.copyover.CopyOverPropertiesParser and reproduce the steps. However there is no one reference to wt.note.NoteHolderNoteLink. See example of the output in attach.
