Increase the WTPart Name size

Hi everybody!


The Part name in the ERP software allows up to 80 characters, butWindchillallows only 60 chars.


I need to increase the size of this attribute, but it's blocked in the Type and Attribute Management.


How can I configure this attribute to receive80 characters?


Thanks in advance.

Hello!


Just to register the solution, I've accessed the link below and followed the steps.

It has worked perfectly.

Hi again!


Correcting my last statement, I had success changing the Part namesizein my "test environment".


When I tryed to implement it in my "production environment", it didn't work.


The difference between them, I think, is that in the production server I already had the properties file created and the ant command executed before this procedure.

Does anyone have an idea of what can I do?

Hi everybody!


After a time of absence, I need to return to this issue.


I've found the WTPartMaster table and I can edit the limit for the name field, but I still have some doubts:


As I couldn't change this using the proper command, what are the impacts of changing the size directly in SQL Management Studio?


Is this table the only one I need to edit?


Thanks!
