Question

I see that you can add it to the table view, but would like it to be a search criteria. We are changing lifecycle templates, and want to filter out objects that we've already changed.

I couldn't find a way to do this from search. Need to use a query builder report.

Hello


You can use a Info*Engine Task or the Windchill Java API to search for the life cycle template of an object.

Yes,but the end goal is to use the actions from the search results table to "Reassign Lifecycle Template" and info*enginer or java api, it would get more complex than it needs to be.


Dave DeMay pointed me in the right direction i think


<wt_home>\codebase\com\ptc\windchill\enterprise\search\server\ t


there are serveral properties files one SearchableAttributes.properties and another SearchableAttributesByType.properties


so to the SearchableAttributes.xconf file i added a property


<property name="lifeCycleTemplate.name" default="MBA|state.lifeCycleId^WCTYPE|wt.lifecycle.LifeCycleTemplate~MBA|name"/">


and to the SearchableAttributesByType.xconf i modified a property


<property name="advancedSearch.wt.part.WTPart" default="rohs_consumer,rohs_infrastructure,rohs_server,jig_a,jig_b,reach_svhc_candidate,reach_svhc_authorization,reach_svhc_restricted,reach_svhc_suspect,gadsl_and_imds_app_prohibited,elv_automotive,thePersistInfo.createStamp,iterationInfo.creator,defaultUnit,lock.locker,search_name,search_number,ownership.owner,source,state.state,partType,thePersistInfo.modifyStamp,iterationInfo.modifier,view.id,organization.id,oemPreference,endItem,versionInfo.identifier.versionId,iterationInfo.identifier.iterationId,lifeCycle.id"/">


xconfmanager -p

PTC Tech Support has the attached tool to batch reassign lifecycle
template for a given type.
The tool was written for 9.0, so use it at your own risk and verify it on
a test environment
