Question

WTPart Source attribute

Does anyone know if there is any special logic in the Source attribute
for Parts? I am sure this is controlled by a resource bundle and is
expandable. I am wondering about other modules like ESI and the
Sourcing modules if they depend on specific values.

For SUMA there are properties that can be modified to add any custom "Source" values to identify what values are Buy or Single Source

com.ptc.windchill.suma.oemPartMultiSource=buy
com.ptc.windchill.suma.oemPartSingleSource=singlesource

We had played around with adding some additional Source Values, and we saw no issues with it. In the end it didn't meet the business need so we removed them.

With ESI, you map they type to the corresponding ERP ID. Since we didn't proceed with adding any additional values, we didn't test the impact to ESI.

Source.make.*.*=1
Source.buy.*.*=2


Hope this helps,
Steve D.
