Hi, we need to copy a large WTParts structure including associated Creo View representations and related IBAs, between prod to a test system. The user inter face based solutions crash due to the dire size of the structure. Which are the possibilities to extract the structure in Windchill backend, which should resolve into an XML load file + Creo View files on disk, which we can then import into the target system? On top of this, in the extracted XML we have the need to make small adjustments, for example add a prefix to the numbers, and small things. Therefore we need some kind of XML that we can modify. /Gustav
I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.1 and Datecode with CPS M020-CPS16Is it possible to create a STEP file using CADWorker?Additionally, when converting, is it possible to retrieve specific attributes from the CAD data and use the retrieved values as the file name?
When I tried to import Entities.twx file in Y server which contains newly created 6 entities, it throwed following error. Invalid request: java.lang.Exception: Import Failed: Unable to update data shape: Could not find DataShape [XX-DS] in the model index. After seeing the error while importing , I attempted to create datashape directly in Y server. But It showed ‘The name of the entity is not unique.’. But I couldnt find this datashape entity in Y server also. We restarted Apache and database services, still same error is occurring.

There is a PDF file related to a CAD document, but this PDF file is corrupted. Since there is no API available, we cannot update the file with the correct version. Therefore, how can I find this PDF file in the SQL database via the EPM document? If I want to find and fix the file, which table should I use? Could you help me with this?
Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Is it possible to doa zoom in or out in a drawing thumbnail? My client is saying he could do it in previous version of Windchill.Description: My client is getting persistent about Drawings thumbnails and zoom in/out pan. He keeps saying that he could zoom in/out in the thumbnail of a drawing previously. But i cant find any information about this neither test.A 3D object you can spin, zoom in out in the thumbnails, no problem there, but with drawings cant do it.
Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: (1) Manually update option set-related information based on BOM information defined in other systems. However, this is not a realistic answer considering the frequency and accuracy of data updates. (2) Implement by customization by Info*Engine. However, it is necessary to use unsupported option set related classes. Since classes related to option sets are not supported, there is a possibility that the functionality will be removed when Windchill is updated. TMC(Toyota Morter Corp.) is in the process of implementing Windchill BOM (EBOM/MBOM/BOP) for production use in April 2025. Currently, TMC designers are using "TMC's own system" to perform tasks equivalent to "defining BOM information. The TMC designers are currently using "TMC's own system" to perform tasks equivalent to "defining BOM information. In the future, TMC plans to use Windchill to define BOM information. However, due to the business process changes involved, this is not expected to
I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 10.2 and Datecode with CPS M030-CPS22This is simple business requirement, can be tested or implemented on any latest Windchill version.Step 1: user is part of Problem Report Author(PRA) for PR objectStep2 : If PR state is Open, then only allow PRA user to show add particpant icon for CA1 role in Members table.Step3: If other then Open state, disable/hide the add participant for CA1 role.For this i have written a validator is current user is part of PRA role, if so, then check for state of the object.But stuck at a point, how can i check and hide the add participant action for CA1 role.Is it possible thru Validator? or DataUtility? For now, wrote a validator code as below:if (wTObject instanceof PalmaProblemReport) {WTPrincipal principal = SessionHelper.getPrincipal();ContainerTeamManaged container = (ContainerTeamManaged) ((PalmaProblemReport) wTObject).getContainer(); WTRoleHolder2 t = TeamHelper.service.getTeam((TeamManaged) wTObject);Ve
I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.4we have been contacted by Java stating this: A Java SE Universal Subscription is now required to receive non-public Java SE updates and security patches for 3rd party Java-based applications and in-house developed production environments.1) Is the version of Java used for the foundation of Windchill a secure version?2) which release version of Windchill, CREO and Illustrate are required for us to be compliant to Java?
I think I’m missing something. Can you help?During a change process my affected objects are set to Under Review with a Pending Change icon (red triangle). At that state, no one can edit the object.During the rework/clarify loops I use the Refine phase and Review phase of the LifeCycle to move the state during that phase.At the moment I am moving the object to “In Work” at Refine but the problem is that now the objects are open for users to modify not just the assignee of the task. I see there is a Roles and Access Control tab for the Under Review phase that looks like you can grant Ad Hoc access to those roles (Assignee and Reviewer).But when I have Refine stay at Under Review, the Assignee can’t edit the objects even with the ‘special powers’…What am I missing? Do I need another State that is used just for Refine to move into and then a policy that locks edits in that state.
I was creating a new user, which at the same time something crashed our method servers. The user was created with a domain, but not the organization. We are running a one Organization install. Now I cannot edit the user as Add Participants will only search the organization, nor can I add him as new as he already exists (I can see the user from a Windchill Report).How do I either : Edit the user? Either correct the organization or the domain to unaffiliated?Delete the user and start a fresh user.
I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.1 and Datecode with CPS M020Hi team,On production Server, Work package 0065680 – tech pubs task 55013 – The conflict says that "PL00000922, Allwin / Regal Helical Gearmotors, A.7 (Service)-Associated Parts List object is not added to Resulting Objects table."But, even after adding the relevant parts in the Resulting Objects of Change Task, the conflict is NOt getting resolved.The business is stuck due to this. Request you to act on this as soon as possible
A new downstream branch/part always starts with the first symbol in the versioning scheme (in our case A), regardless of the version of the upstream part. The equivalent link points to the exact upstream version, but this link is not well visible. Also, it is quite confusing for our users to have a separate version for the mPart. Additionally, we publish the mPart information to the MRP system which requires the exact ePart version. Therefore, we manually synchronize the downstream version with the upstream part version. This means that if the upstream part version is D, we also revise the downstream version to version D and so on. However, this is quite time-consuming and error-prone, especially with large assemblies. Windchill does not offer any functionality to keep the version synchromized.How do you handle this? If you have a separate version, how do you ensure that the upstream part version is clearly visible in the manufacturing department ? Thank you very much!

Customer has the following requeriments:- Windows Server updates are scheduled and applied automatically on weekends- Updates must be installed without stopping Windchill services. If Windows Server requires a restart after installation, it will be done also autmatically Do you have any experience with this scenario?Is there any best practice or recomendation from PTC saying that Windchill servicies must be stopped before a Windows update installation? Thanks in advance!Maite
Hello everyone, I'm seeking assistance with uploading a local Creo assembly to Windchill 13.0. Despite my efforts, I haven't been successful in completing the upload process. Here's what I've tried so far:I attempted to upload the assembly as a simple document through Site -> Folders. However, this method does not recognize it as a part or an assembly, nor does it identify the child parts. Based on the documentation, it appears that I may need to upload the assembly as a product rather than as a document in my site folder. However, I'm not entirely sure about the correct procedure for this.Could someone please provide guidance on the proper steps to upload a Creo assembly to Windchill so that it is recognized correctly as an assembly with its child parts?Thank you in advance for your assistance!
