10.1 M030 - Adding Additional Disposition Columns

All,

Has anyone had to add additional (new) disposition types (columns) to the AffectedActivityData link?
I have been requested to add two additional disposition columns to the affected items table.
I have looked up this customization in the guide, but thought I'd ask if anyone has done this before, and if they have a condensed how-to on doing it (especially on extending the default table builder classes and other files that need changes).

Mike

I haven't looked at this, but it doesn't appear difficult (reviewing what
others posted earlier) versus other GUI customization. I think what makes
sense is for a someone like me to develop a generic UI that's configurable.
Ergo.configure a property file and resource bundles to add additional. It
doesn't appear like this can be summarized down for less technical folks
though.



This isn't in 10.2 w/o customization? Seems like a point where R&D goes "we
need to make a schedule", drop functionality, but quickly document how to
manually add more columns etc., etc..

Simon,
Yep, that is exactly what we need to do.
Can you offer us any pointers (help) on what/how you guys added the new disposition columns?

All,
Attached is a ZIP file with a working customization for adding 2 disposition columns to the change task and change notice affected items tables.
Contained in the zip file is a word document with the installation directions.
If anyone has any improvements on this, please let me know so I can incorporate it into the code.

Many thanks goes to Stéphane Mainente from PTC tech support, for providing direction and much of the code.
