Windchill

How can we automatically create a large EBOM from a large MCAD assembly . Please note the MCAD assembly is created in the Creo.

Hi, Can anyone recommend a simple monitoring utility to check the response time and availability of various Windchill status URL's with an ability to email Admin's when there are outages of the various sub-systems? Apache check:      https://servername/Windchill\wtcore\test\staticAnon.htmlTomcat check:      https://servername/Windchill\wtcore\test\dynAnon.jspWindchill check:   https://servername/Windchill/servlet/ProwtGW Does anyone have anything like this already or willing to suggest a suitable (simple script) monitoring utility? ThanksGary

Hello,I am calculating using Time Difference (days) how long an Activity has been open or was open before completion. I have nested it inside the Decode function in order to account for the 2 scenarios of Actual Finish being Null or populated with a completion date. The user is unable to accurately sort the result of the Decode because it handles it like a string and does not put them in chronological order. So I have nested the Decode inside the To Number function. This allows the numbers to be sorted properly. The numbers bring back along of decimal places so I wanted to restrict that to 2 decimal places and tried encasing the entire thing inside the Round function. When I add the Decode function inside the To Number function I get the error “Attributes of data type string are not valid for this function”. Does anyone know why that error would be produced? The To Number outside of the Decode functions correctly and sorts correctly as a number. But when I try the entire thing inside t

Dears,I wrote a customized User Picker according to the Demo, it is working fine under the Creat and Edit modes, but it can't show the selected property value, I think I should need to write some code under the getDataValue method for the ComponentMode.VIEW, how can I make writing this part of the code to be able to display it on the VIEW under getDataValue method. Thank you.   @Override public Object getDataValue(String component_id, Object object, ModelContext mc) throws WTException { String attributeId = component_id; Object obj = null; GUIComponentArray guiArray = new GUIComponentArray(); if (ComponentMode.CREATE.equals(mode) || ComponentMode.EDIT.equals(mode)) { obj = super.getDataValue(attributeId, object, mc); if (obj instanceof PickerInputComponent) { PickerInputComponent pickerComponent = (PickerInputComponent) obj; guiArray.addGUIComponent(pickerComponent); } } else if (ComponentMode.VIEW.equals(mode)) { //TODO } return obj; }&nbsp

Dear all, Would it be possible to use sequenced tasks within the Change Request process. Making a proposed solution and a impact analysis during the CR often needs the input of multiple departments. It would be a nice feature to use tasks to manage. The structured tasks available in the CN process looks perfect for this job but what is the route to get this also available in the CR? Lots of programming / customization?  Are there other parties who have this implemented? Best regards,Dennis Varkevisser  

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.2.4We are wanting to monitor and send alerts for all Windchill Queues. We would prefer sending queue information by streaming logs to Datadog. Perhaps there are Linux command line options? We can see that this information, monitoring and alerts are in Mbeans from 'windchill wt.util.jmx.SMJconsole', but email seems to be the only alert mechanism. Again...We prefer to use Datadog and we want some form of streaming logs that we can send all windchill queue data to Datadog.

i wanted to render the part info page URL in the esi metarespone file tag , but their is a customization guide for erp Connector i applied the logic it is not working as expected.

How can we select the approver group based on the attribute value in the workflow?

I am using Windchill PartsLink Release 11.2 and Datecode with CPS 11.2.1.10I have created attributes in Partslink as O-ringID, while entering the attributes value if user enter single digit then I want two decimal digit after that user input in autonaming rule. for ex- user enter 5 then it should be 5.00 in Autonaming rule like (O-ringID_5.00) and if user enter 5.15 something like that, then it should be as it is.Here are the errors that I facedI have created attributes in Partslink as O-ringID, while entering the attributes value if user enter single digit then I want two decimal digit after that user input in autonaming rule. for ex- user enter 5 then it should be 5.00 in Autonaming rule like (O-ringID_5.00) and if user enter 5.15 something like that, then it should be as it is.

Using WGM 12.1.2.1 and SolidWorks 2021 Here is the scenario: I have a part that is not released and has a sldprt and slddrw describing it.  I add just the sldprt to my workspace (clean).  Check it out, open it in SW, modify it and save it. Workspace says its checked out and modified.  All is good. Now select to add the slddrw with Dependents set to 'required' to my workspace.  When it says what to do with the file I have open (and checked out) I selected 'Do Not Close'. Now the workspace says the sldprt (again that I have checked out) is out-of-date and won't let me check in my work.  Version and iteration of the part are the same in my workspace and in WC.  This has to be a bug?  Least version of WGM and SW2019 did not behave like this!  This is reproducible on multiple files for us.  HELP!  I've never seen a file in a workspace marked as checked out AND out of date.  Brad

Hi!  My org is starting to use windchill as a PLM tool and I am storing some FEM and CFD reports as "Reference Document" type on the PLM.  I want to link this reports to the WT parts that were used in the simulation so that there is easier traceability on what was modeled in the simulation rather than having to open the report and look up information. In my previous experience with a different PLM, we had a section to link a released part with another object through a "references" or "engineering references" section. Is it possible in Windchill to do something similar? To link this reference document to a WT part without creating a new revision of the part?  Thanks!

Hi Guys,When we create a new part in type and attributes we get a com.ptc right i want to know the difference between of with com. ptc vs direct name. Refer the screenshotRegards,Aj 

I am creating a custom action for a report based on Time period selected in first step, using this to create report for specific time in second step. I have created multiple JSPs based on time selection to show user. But I can see all steps in wizard steps are not getting dynamically hidden.Custom Actions :<objecttype name="object" class="wt.fc.Persistable">        <action name="Dashboard"><command url="Dashboard.jsp" windowType="popup" class="DashboardProcessor" method="execute"/>        </action> <action name="Dashboard_Step0" afterVK="CheckDashBoardReportTimePeriod" ><label>Select Time Period</label>          <command url="Dashboard_Step0.jsp" windowType="popup" />        </action> <action name="Dashboard_Step1" preloadWizardPage="false"><label>Product Registration Transactions</label>         

A user does not have access of modify identity to a part, how to override this access that user can edit part. Through the code.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.1 and Datecode with CPS M020-CPS24Cad workers are getting failed automatically. could you please help us to resolve the issue.if possible, please schedule the call to investigate and reproduce the issue.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.2 and Datecode with CPS 11.2.1.6We have a requirement for our customer SAC. The customer wants to restrict editing of the field work-complete when the work-complete field is already 100% (work complete field of Plan Activity under project Management) We have written java code in which a adapter class extends ServiceEventListenerAdapter and the logic is written under notifyVetoableEvent. We have written xconf file which is registered under site.xconf and wt.properties file. Also restarted the server to test it. It is not working. Please suggest us if we are missing anything

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.0.2Our users are facing a very strange issue. We have Business Rules defined for Promotion Request. There is one Business rule that shows errors on the parts that are not added to PR or even not closely related to the parts that are added to PR. If we don't take any action on such BR and wait for 10-24 hours, the error goes away on its own. For example, if a user is Promoting objects for a part in the Dryer context, it randomly pulls parts from the Laundry context. The problem with this issue is that it's not reproducible and it's very random.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.1 and Datecode with CPS M020-CPS24I have followed the instructions contained in:- https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS349421?source=search- https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS6555?source=searchbut still I can see the link "calculated" between the latest version of the WTP and the oldest version of the drawing.

I am working with a vendor in Asia. He previously had Creo 3 installed. We are only at Creo Elements Pro. We asked vendor to use CEP. He installed CEP. Now when he tries to use Windchill to download models or check models in, The message dbg_err_crash() - continuing from serious error (order_debug) appears.Does anyone know why this error comes up and the fix for it?Thank you.

Dear Community, I'm currently in the process of setting up a Windchill 13 installation on a fresh RHEL 8.9 system.Any information, experiences, or advice you can offer would be immensely helpful as I navigate this installation process.If anyone has documentation, it would be highly valuable. Thanks,Tushar.

I had created a new organization to test some random stuff, but now no longer need it. Is there an easy way to delete it? Thanks. Windchill Version 12.1.2.0

I realize the PTC Software Matrix says PDMLink 12.1 can run on Windows Server 2019, but we are wondering if anyone has attempted to run it on WS2012. Many thanks in advance!
