Windchill Workflow Templates - Publish at certain points

Good Morning all,

As you can see from below this is my current promotion request.

At the areas circled in red I would like the workflow to re publish the file (will only ever be .asm .prt or .drw)

The reason being is that the workflow changes the state and on our standard border displays the state.

    Issue was resolved by setting republishonepmdocumentchange = true

     

    xconfmanager -p -t D:\PTC\WC\Windchill\codebase\wvs.properties -s "publish.republishonepmdocumentchange=true"

    you can use below code to publish all promotable.

    public static void publishReleaseDocument(PromotionNotice primaryBusinessObject) throws WTException {

      wt.fc.QueryResult qr = wt.maturity.MaturityHelper.service.getPromotionTargets((PromotionNotice) primaryBusinessObject);

     

      while (qr.hasMoreElements()) {

      RevisionControlled obj = (RevisionControlled) qr.nextElement();

      if (obj.getClass().isAssignableFrom(EPMDocument.class)) {

      QueryResult allIteration = VersionControlHelper.service.allIterationsOf(obj.getMaster());

      ;

      if (allIteration != null && allIteration.hasMoreElements()) {

      Persistable docs = (Persistable) allIteration.nextElement();

      String objRef = ObjectReference.newObjectReference((Persistable) docs).toString();

      ConfigSpec configSpec = new LatestConfigSpec();

      com.ptc.wvs.common.ui.Publisher pub = new com.ptc.wvs.common.ui.Publisher();

      com.ptc.wvs.common.ui.PublisherAction action = new com.ptc.wvs.common.ui.PublisherAction();

      action.addAction(com.ptc.wvs.common.ui.PublisherAction.QUEUEPRIORITY, "H");

      boolean result = pub.doPublish(true, true, objRef, configSpec, configSpec, true, "", "Created By Workflow", com.ptc.wvs.common.ui.Publisher.EPM, null, 0);

      }

      }

      }

      }

    Hope it helps !!!

    Thanks

      Morning  Shreyas Atre and thanks for the speedy reply!

      Just a couple quick questions as I have not edited many workflows before:

      • So this will republish the file in question and pick up the state changes in the viewable?
      • To insert this do I just create a new "Expression" and copy and paste your code in?
      • When I do this and click "Check Syntax" I get 8 errors, is this correct?

      Checking Syntax...

      D:\ptc\WC\Windchill\temp\WfExpression_Administrator.java:33: illegal start of expression

      public static void publishReleaseDocument(PromotionNotice primaryBusinessObject) throws WTException {

      ^

      D:\ptc\WC\Windchill\temp\WfExpression_Administrator.java:33: illegal start of expression

                                                                                                         ^

      8 errors

      Syntax check complete.

      Many thanks,
