Question

Remove Default Routing Option on Promotion Request Approval Process

Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the default selection on the Promotion Request Approval task in Windchill PDMLink?

Our task currently has two options:

Approve

Reject

The Approve option is always initially selected, but we'd like for neither to be initially checked, and force the user to select one.

Does anyone know if this is possible and how to change it?

Thanks in advance

It is controlled by a property in wt.properties, com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.workitem.dataUtilities.setDefaultRoutingEvent. You can set it to false.

    Thanks Binesh.

    I'm assuming that this property will apply for all tasks, and not just Promotion Request Approvals.

    Is this correct?

    That's correct. One workaround if you want to set this to a specific task is, create a default routing option as the first choice and in the transition throw an exception forcing the user to make a choice between the valid choices.
