I have a situation where i want to compare my current modified Wt Part Strucuture with an historic as released version. The prombel is that it shows also current as released models that are released between the history version and my current to release version.

 

Example:

I have a Assembly released as follows:

 

 

 

 

Assembly(A.1 - Released)
|-Sub1(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part2(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part3(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part4(A.1 - Released)
|-Sub2(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part5(A.1 - Released)
|-Part1(A.1 - Released)

 

 

 

 

 I have modified the Assembly with as result. Notice that Sub1 is already released for whatever reason

 

 

 

 

Assembly(B.3 - InWork)
|-Sub1(B.2 - Released)
| |-Part2(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part6(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part4(A.1 - Released)
|-Sub2(B.2 - InWork)
| |-Part5(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part7(A.1 - InWork)
|-Part1(B.4 - InWork)
|-Part8(A.1 - InWork)

 

 

 

 

 If i want to compare the part structures the newer released version shows up

 

 

 

 

Assembly(A.1 - Released)
|-Sub1(B.2 - Released)
| |-Part2(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part6(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part4(A.1 - Released)
|-Sub2(A.1 - Released)
| |-Part5(A.1 - Released)
|-Part1(A.1 - Released)

 

 

 

 

Are there any methods to compare to a historic version without a created additional baseline?

Hi @jw_CS 

If you set the As Matured Date Does it help?

    Until know it don't give the 100% result i am hoping for.

    On my test Environment i did it probably a bit to dirty and it don't work out well (both sometimes i see modified parts in blue (changed) on both sides, but also sometimes changes are not visible (stil black / grey text)).

    On the normal environment it looks better. What i at least noticed is that the setted date is important. if set on release date it looks well, but if any other date it is more mixed results.

    Hi @jw_CS 

    The point is that the date is very important

    Also it is very important to know that WTPart does not support as stored configuration. 

    The best thing is to use effectivity configuration but you would have used it.

    Hi,

    As @HelesicPetr  says, the config Spec filter when you compare should be set as "As Matured". Remember to go through some documentation on that. In case your "Released" LC state is with a different name like say, "Released for Production", then you must change some preference (or is it property?).

    This will meet your requirement as you want to compared 2 structure with timeline in mind.

    Keep us updated!

    Cheers
