How to add IBA in mPSE

Hi Kumarappan,

I hope you have found resolution by this time. But still sharing some guideline so other community members get benefited of it.

Please find below steps to achieve this:

1. Open D:\ptc\Windchill_10.2\Windchill\codebase\config\logicrepository\xml\explorer\customization\CustAssociativeBOMExplorerMain.xml file in Notepad Editor

2. Add below entry for one IBA:

<ExplorerElementGroup>

<LogicContext application="ptc.mpm.ProductStructureExplorer" dataType="wt.part.WTPart"/>

<Table id="ptc.wnc.exp.PartUsesLinkTabTable" selectionMode="multi-non-contiguous" displayMode="edit">

<CellDefinition id="color" displayModeOverride="view">

<AttributeDefinition attributeId="color" />

      </CellDefinition>

</Table>

</ExplorerElementGroup>

3. If you have another attribute to add to MPSE, then add another block as below:

<ExplorerElementGroup>

<LogicContext application="ptc.mpm.ProductStructureExplorer" dataType="wt.part.WTPart"/>

<Table id="ptc.wnc.exp.PartUsesLinkTabTable" selectionMode="multi-non-contiguous" displayMode="edit">  

<CellDefinition id="EnumValue" displayModeOverride="view">

<AttributeDefinition attributeId="EnumValue" />

</CellDefinition>

</Table>

</ExplorerElementGroup>

4. Save the file

5. Open MPSE

6. Go to file -> Preferences

7. Reset below highlighted entries:

8. Stop Windchill Method Server

9. Clear Tomcat & Info*Engine cache

10. Restart Windchill Method Server

11. Now you will see two newly added IBA will get displayed in MPSE with correct values.

Feel free to reply if you have any difficulty implementing this.
