Has a PTC support provided any solution?

Thanks in advanced

Quite a while late but there's now a support article on this: CS343227 

We had this come up this morning and the issue was that userA had created some CAD and WTParts. The CAD was checked in but the WTParts were not and stayed as new in the user workspace. 

Then a different user had an assembly that used the CAD parts. On checkin (with Auto Associate turned on), check in failed with the same error. 

 

I found the offending parts by adding to workspace the CAD assembly and collecting all the WTParts. Two WTParts showed up on the collector page that were new. 

I deleted those two from userA and then everything worked fine. Definitely a rare occurance.

Hello,

I found very rare situation which can generate the error,

 

If the user create new WTPart in the workspace link this part with CAD part.

This part is added to the assembly which exist in the Commonspace

Then the Build structure (during checkin ASM) failed because WTPart exist only in the Workspace

 

Best Regards

Hello,

 

Yes, in our situation, user had to find and checkin all sub wtparts in the assembly.

From the CAD perspective it was not clear for user. 

Administrator had to help to find the wtparts to check in, because the sub wtparts where created only in the workspace of different user.

CAD model was already in the Commonspace without WTpart.

 

I hope it could help. 

If you have more questions about the solution contact me.

But this doesn't seem OOTB behavior of Windchill. What caused this issue are very standard actions that user do to perform CAD operations. Did you raise a PTC ticket for this.? seems like a bug in new version starting WC 11.1. We have been finding few issues since the new subscription based license came in WC.
