Is it possible to specify the EPM sub-type in WC 10.1 using an OIR? With a multi org WC installation there will be a different EPM doc types for each org. So if a user from org A creates a Pro/E model it is assigned the EPM sub type for org A. PTC documentation states to use the paramemter UPLOAD_SOFT_TYPE to specify the sub type. This will be difficult because a few orgs import a lot of new CAD data from design partners.

What is the reason for using different sub types? Different:

- Attributes?

- Lifecycle?

- Permissions?

- Other?

I have a ticket with PTC to detect this very thing. Right now I am told it's possible but I have not been presented a solution. It will require a custom OIR Java algorithm though. Page 142 of the Specialized Admin Guide.

Hello Patrick,

have you got any custom OIR Java algorithm from PTC please? I would like to have a different soft type on one product. Thank you
