Question

How can I see which Creo Parameter maps to which WT Attribute (owner link)?

Hi,

we would like to populate Attributes in WINDCHILL Parts  by using creo Parameters. Some attribute mappings I retrieved by Trail-and-Error, but for others I did not succeed.

So my question is if it is possible to get a list from the system about those mappings? Or how can I find it? Thank you.

Best regards

Norbert

Same named global attributes are driven from CAD to WTPart upon check or build. Unless you have a preference set in EPMBuild Preferences.Do you have your attributes appear correctly on the CAD document?

Thanks for your answer.

Unfortunately, when I open in WINDCHILL  -- "QUICK LINKS"--> "MY SETTINGS" --> "PREFERENCES" I cannot see any "EPMBuild Preferences List" . Maybe because of my limited permissions?  I would like to work more effectively with "Owner Link"

For example: The Parameter "MATL" in creo maps to "MATERIAL SPECIFICATION" in WINDCHILL.

And I wonder which CAD (creo) Attribute drives e.g. "COATING SPECIFICATION SUPPLEMENTS" in WINDCHILL.

I would appreciate if I was able to get a list about those mappings.

Best regards

Norbert
