Question

Identifying the User Who Changes Part Status in Windchill ---- LastModief and ModifiedBy problem

I am retrieving the following data from Windchill's PTC.ProdMgmt.GetValidStateTransitions() API:
"Items": [
{
"Value": "INWORK",
"Display": "In Work"
},
{
"Value": "RELEASED",
"Display": "Released"
},
{
"Value": "CANCELLED",
"Display": "Canceled"
}
]
We use these values to indicate the status of a part. If the part is ongoing, it is "In Work"; if it is canceled, it is "Canceled"; and if it is completed, it is "Released". The main problem here is that we cannot find the user who logged into Windchill and selected one of these statuses for the part. When we make such changes, the Modifier API does not show the information of the person who made the change. How can we identify the user who made this change?

Hi,

Can you try checking the tab  History > Lifecycle History or Maturity History?

 

Cheers

Do you know how the user is making the change? Are they using a Set State?

If so, the information should appear as part of the life cycle history
