Version: Windchill 11.2 Use Case: I want to roll back a drawing revision.Description: Using Creo 10.0.8.0.  We created a drawing weeks ago and assigned a number at rev _-. Checked the drawing in but never released it. Engineering decided to change the part number and when I renamed it, the number change was accepted but the rev level seemed to auto-advance to _A without any prompting from me to do so. The only way I can see to get back to rev_- is to delete the drawing and start over. Is there another way to do this? I have this same problem with a couple of other drawings that had been released but not signed off by everyone (so not 'officially' released in my organization) and now there is a part number change required for those drawings that should not necessarily require a revision either. What seems like not so many years ago (to me), this was a drafter level function, pull down tab and you could go backwards if needed.  Any ideas? Thanks.

Version: Windchill 13.0   Use Case: Classification of multiple documents from Desktop Integration Description: Hi everyone, do you know if with Desktop Integration, when you select multiple documents from local and drag them into Windchill, it is possible to assign the classification immediately in the interface? The same behavior that happens for the selection of the softype would be needed, which is rightly always the same for all documents dragged in that operation. At the moment it allows me to assign it only if I do it for one document at a time.     The attribute appears in the column selection but then you don't see it ty,Matteo

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Based on object affected (type, state, attributes) and the selected end state, the change process automates a minimal list of required roles/approvers.Description:  Wondering if this topic has already been covered?I have seen customization that checked that a given set of Roles in the change process were populated based on affected objects (type, state, attributes).I have also seen the use of a questionnaire with cascading additional questionnaire to define the change process path and approvers. 

Reference topic: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Windchill/Limited-access/m-p/582062#M58429   Is it still possible in Windchill 12.0 to change the domain of a folder? When I edit a folder (by right clicking it -> Edit) I don't see the 'Domain' attribute. I'm logged in as a site administrator (but not the default wcadmin if that matters). Or maybe there's some preference/property required?   Here's how the Edit page looks like for me:  

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: Expand fields of search for PSB action Replace with ExistingDescription: We would like additional search fields for the following PSB action Replace with ExistingWe can do this for the Insert Existing; but not Replace with Existing. Based on our research, the following was observed: The Replace With Existing action search window is implemented with a search UI which is tightly coupled with OOTB AdvancedReplacementAddPartAction class, which we we were not able to add custom IBA as search criteria field.  Is there a way around this limitation?

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I have to do a mass update of the "Default Trace Code" attribut that is located on the Part Master.Description: typically use the LodFromFile utility to update attributes on WTParts and WTDocuments. To do this, I first create a CSV file following the format outlined in [Windchill_Home]/loadFiles/csvmapfile.txt. I then convert the CSV file into an XML file using the csv2xml utility.Currently, I need to update the "Default Trace Code" attribute across multiple parts. However, I haven't found any documentation or guidance on how to create a suitable loader for Part Master attributes.

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Mapping of attributes from CAD drawing (Assosiation: Calculated)Description: We have different parameters/attributes defined in the CAD and in the Drawing - The attributes are mapped to the WTpart, but are only synced from the CAD part (as it is associated as Owner). Association: Calculated does not show up on any of the lists of mapping options.  Is it possible to set that the attributes should be mapped from a "Calculated"?Is there another workaround (besides putting all the attributes/parameters in the CAD)? 

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I would like to hear from anyone able to meet data sovereignty requirements for multiple countries working in the same global implementation.Description: For some industries, there can be requirements for certain data to not leave the country. In a global implementation a data sovereignty requirement can apply to more than one country while the Windchill server can only physically exist in one. Meaning certain data from some countries can never be managed using Windchill. Theoretically if an organisation defines "data" as only files (so not including meta-data), by using correctly configured security labels in combination with vaulting rules, data/files always stay in country. I don't want to get into a debate about what "data" really is, that is a discussion for a legal compliance team. I want to hear if anyone is successfully doing this at their organisation, if so are they able to share any challenges they had to overcome to get things imp

After all of these years, PTC has still not aligned the Creation Wizard for Promotion Request and Problem Report / Change Request / Review (Design or Peer).  Does anyone know if PTC have any plans or is there an EASY way to add the Select Participant step to a Change Object or the Add Attachments step to a Promotion Request?  (I am sure it can be done by customization but didn't want to go down that route.) I wanted to use the Peer Review but it is not user friendly for the originator to receive an initial task just to set up the participants when it could easily be part of the object creation wizard as it is in the Promotion Request.  So, I decided to configure my own Peer Review using a Promotion Request instead.  But, now I am reminded that you can't "Add Attachments" to a Promotion Request in the create wizard.  So each option only gets me 90% of the way to what I want.
