Question

Import or Load Part Instances

Hi all,

 

I have the Part Configuration object. I have to load / bulk create 100’s of Part Instances with Serial Nos, by giving the serial nos and basic info in an excel sheet or .csv sheet.

Is this possible? We are in Windchill 12.1.

Alternatively, is it possible to create a new WRS domain for Part Instance and define some custom PUT/POST functions in it?

 

Any experience on how this can be achieved.

Best Regards

Hari

What have you tried so far? Have you created a part with an instance and exported it? Have you looked at the loadfile functionality?

Hi Bryan,

 

Import via load file for Part Instance is not supported, refer this articles.

https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS168432

 

Export option for Part Instance is provided from Structure tab , similar to Part Structure export.

Iam thinking if WRS should help here in loading Part Instances.

 

What do you think?

 

Best Regards

Hari

    Hi, looks like the only way to achieve what you are trying to do is extend WRS.

    You can write your own load class and method. Also found this:

    Look at the WTProductInstance2 class.
