Question

Windchill, Column Display, Parameters, HELP!!!!!!!

OK, Can someone please point me in the direction, or steps, or wherever i need to go, in order to get the display in Windchill, (commonspace, and workspace) to display a model parameter in the columns.    currently it shows number, name, version, state, file name. "Name" is the ptc_common_name

I know how to create custom columns, and change the columns, and organize all of that. 

I however, want to replace the "Name" columm, with a "description" column.  The description is located in the model parameters under "DESCRIPTION"  

 

The reason i dont want to use NAME (ptc_common_name) is because our BOM reports are pulling descriptions from the model parameters, and if that particular parameter isnt filled in, it shows blank in the BOM report.

 

(maybe there is a way to have the bom report pull ptc_common_name and it would be easier)

I think you are asking about customized views in Windchill. Please follow below article.
