CS204358 The "Affected Object" collector collects non latest iteration of Parts linked to the affected Document in Windchill PDMLink 10.2

WC Gurus,

What have any of you done regarding this issue?https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS204358&source=minisearch

In 10.1 the collector gets only the latest WTPart, in 10.2 all versions of the wtpart are collected. This is not good.

Has anoyone put this up as an Idea? I'm unable to locate one.

Hi Vaughn

May be it is the normal behaviour.  As CAD or Doc links to the Part are mainly "describe links" (ie between a specific Version of CAD to a specific Version of Part)

for me the collector should collect the Part Version effectively linked.  which is may be not the latest if you remove the link on the latest Part. Or if you Revise the Doc "alone" (it breaks the describe link in this case, cause it is the Part who own the link) ...

regards

Greg,

I agree, it is probably better to clarify: the linked
version should be collected... not all versions.

The normal behavior up to 10.2 was to collect only the
linked version, not all versions which it now does in 10.2.
