What is/where is the setting to stop creating WT Parts?  Tired of cleaning this garbage out of the database.....

Thx!

If you go to preferences, you will be able to change the auto associate related preferences to no

• Auto Associate upon Check In >> no
• Create Associate New Part >> never

You can also setup an ACL to deny create writes on wtparts for the users as well.

Thank you,

Hey Binesh.  The "Create" setting does not seem to exist for me.  I'm on Windchill PDMLink 10.1, M040.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

It is under operations > Auto Associate

Thank you

I found:

Operation

     Checkin Operation

          Auto Associate upon Check In

Is that the one?

Mine is set to "No" and I don't get the WT Parts.  Our other location is getting them (they've made almost 600!), and want to stop making them.  I don't know what their setting is yet.

Thanks!

You may have to have to set this preference in Site > Utilities > Preference and Lock it so that it will be applicable for every users

Thank you
