Hello,The standard behavior in case of existing equivalent link when parts are modified are:Iteration or revision of the downstream part automatically create an equivalent link to the Upstream version. Iteration or revision of the upstream part do not create an equivalent link from the existing Downstream version.For one of the downstream view of the view hierarchy (2 levels, one upstream, multiples downstream):It is possible to reverse the behaviour between Upstream and Downstream ? It is possible to disactivate the automatic equivalent link creation when modifying the downstream Part ?Can behavior be set differently if the Part are iterated or revised ?Can behavior be set with other Branch attributes like BOM Type in case of the upstream and downstream are with the same view ? The idea is to give flexibility with accuracy and clarity in the management of the maturity between System team, Design team, Engineering team.Ideally for this view in Downstream, Equivalent link is auto-create

How to save the QML report which have custom input jsp page.Unable to save make the report redundant for Data Monitor

Sampling pages within the Tech Pack should be unique to each sample type, displaying only the attributes relevant to the selected sample. Pages should be presented in the correct approval sequence, with visual assets displayed alongside each sample stage (including marked up images as well as original images). This provides clear guidance and context for the factory, improving understanding and reducing errors throughout the sampling process.

How to Change the OOTB Attribute Display Name? Tried with Type and Attribute Manager by changing the localize master text but it doesn't reflect. Also put a required constraint it doesn't refelct.

windchill 13.0.2 Hi All,We have a requirement to perform a one-time export of WTDocuments along with their primary and secondary content for all revisions.Currently, our utility takes an input date and identifies the closest/relevant WTDocument revision based on that date, then downloads the primary and secondary content associated with that revision.For the new one-time export approach, we are considering exporting:All WTDocuments All revisions of each WTDocument Primary content for each revision Secondary content/attachments for each revisionHowever, since each WTDocument can have multiple revisions and associated content, exporting the content for all revisions could result in a very large volume of data.What is the recommended approach in Windchill for handling this type of bulk export?Is there any standard or recommended API, utility, or approach for efficiently exporting primary and secondary content across all revisions of WTDocuments?Also, are there any recommended strategies t

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.26 While performing a system health check in Windchill PDMLink 12.0 using WinDU, we came across findings reported by the DetectPLMFormatEnumAndMSRInfoLayout task. The findings are related to the ESI_RESPONSE_FORMAT_PLM local enumeration constraint for the Distributed Process Target and the Model Structure Report Attributes layout for the ESI Target. We ran the recommended ESIPLMFormatEnumAndMSRInfoLayoutRepairTask, but the findings are still appearing when we rerun the detection task. Could you help us understand why these findings are persisting and suggest how we can resolve them?

When busy with some administrative task today i noticed that under  <My Organisation> > Utilities > Participant Administration I have the Option Create Organisation.When creating such sub organisation(<My Organisation / My Sub Organisation>) and a bit fiddling around with it I noticed the followingI can add users to it but the Users Domain / Cabinet is still <My Organisation> and not <My organisation / My Sub Organisation> I don't see my suborganisation in the Organisations list (Browse > Organisations) If a user belongs to <My Organisation / My Sub Organisation>, where is no administrative Level, So the user can only be administrator of <My Organisation>. But then it don’t have andministrative any rights. (no acces to Organisation, can’t create contexts, etc)So what is the usecase of creating suborganisations?

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 13.1 and Datecode with CPS 13.1.0.0 Requirement: For custom part type "CBB Part", ONLY its Creator should maintain team members (add/remove). Tried independently (both failed): Approach A - Policy Administration: Granted "Full Control" to dynamic role "Creator" in /Default/PDM and /System domains. Approach B - Lifecycle Template: Granted "Full Control" to the "Owner" role directly in the lifecycle template. Current Issue: Only the Administrator account can see the "Add/Remove Member" options. The Creator cannot see these options on the Team page. Questions: What is the standard configuration to achieve this? Are we missing a preference (e.g., Access Permission Configuration (PDM)) or facing domain priority issues? What is the correct domain and permission setup?

We allow users to add and remove participants from a workflow task.  I can catch empty roles in the future, but how do you catch the current task if a user removes all participants in the current role they are an approver?  Right now when you remove the last user, it hides the ability to add new users and just processes the task as if you Completed Task.

I have used Windchill PDMLink since version 3 and the “New Folder” (Next Gen UI) is terrible.What is PTC trying to look like?Not only would this require all existing work instruction and users guides to be updated, it’s just not a good layout. 

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 13.1 and Datecode with CPS 13.1.2.0 Why Workgroup Manager is needed for Solidworks? As observed Creo don't need the WGM any longer. Impact is with WGM it takes a lot of time, without WGM it is significantly faster for big assemblies. If we can have a quick call with PDMLink and CAD integration team to answer the follow up question it will be great. This is not urgent.

 We are currently running Windchill 12.0.2.25 and are planning a migration to Windchill+ 13.1.3, so we are looking for an approach that will work well in both environments.We have a requirement to rank Manufacturer Parts (MPNs) associated with OEM parts as follows:Rank 1 = Approved for Primary Build BOM Rank 2 = Approved for Secondary Build BOM Blank = No restriction; can be used in either buildThe challenge is that the ranking is assembly-specific, not a property of the Manufacturer Part itself.For example:Assembly-AMPN-A = Rank 1 MPN-B = Rank 2Assembly-BMPN-A = Rank 2 MPN-B = Rank 1Because of this:The rank cannot reside on the Manufacturer Part, since the same MPN may have different rankings depending on the assembly where it is used. I don't believe it belongs on the OEM-to-Manufacturer Part (AML) relationship either, since that relationship is global and would not vary by assembly context. Alternate/Substitute Parts do not appear to fit this use case because the requirement is tied

Workflow Task Variable does not render the string value as URL.From our java code, we are returning a string which is a url. This is URL is being displayed in the value of the variable Intarsys URL. This was clickable URL and was working in Windchill 12. After upgrading to Windchill 13, the string value in the UI is no more hyperlink(not clickable)I have tried changing the global variable inside workflow to java.net.URL. But in this case, the task itself is not getting generated. How to render the URL so that it is clickable. As in, it should open in a new window. 

I am using Windchill Risk and Reliability Enterprise Edition (Formerly Relex) Release 11.1 We’re planning to migrate our Windchill 11.1 database, currently hosted on a Windows Server 2016 VM with SQL Server 2014 Express, to a clean Windows Server 2025 VM running Windchill 13.1 and SQL Server 2025 Express.The Windchill 13.1 conversion wizard does not recognize the imported database. Could you point us to documentation or recommended steps for completing this migration? Alternatively, rather than migrating a database to a new machine, can we simply export the projects? If so, what would we lose by only exporting our projects/files?
