Version: Windchill 13.0

 

Use Case: Expand fields of search for PSB action Replace with Existing


Description:

We would like additional search fields for the following PSB action Replace with Existing
We can do this for the Insert Existing; but not Replace with Existing.

 

Based on our research, the following was observed:

 

The Replace With Existing action search window is implemented with a search UI which is tightly coupled with OOTB AdvancedReplacementAddPartAction class, which we we were not able to add custom IBA as search criteria field. 

 

Is there a way around this limitation?

Are you looking to do customization? This appears like it should be moved to that channel if so. @Fadel , not following your image. Appears you have added attributes to your search but did not document how. Appears that you were showing Insert Existing UI. Is your modification documented anywhere?
