Hi, Myself Akash,here in Promotion Request, having set object state event that contains below expression (screenshot)this expression only setting to iteration which is added as  a promotion Object, below iterations are still having same previous state. need API for set state all iterations in same revision of Promotion Object.

I've found how to retrieve them (CS130100) but I cannot figure out how to save the soft attribute value on the Part Uses Occurrence.  Anyone have an example?   Thanks.

Hi Community,I have recently configured Windchill Server for my client with SSL CA Signed certificate downloaded from DigiCert.I have replaced server.crt and server.key in Apache and restarted Windchill Server. Currently url is showing secured connection inside VM(might be because SSL certificate is installed on server) but if I am trying to access the URL outside VM, it is showing secured connection but not following certificate hierarchy. (Root-Intermediate-Individual) - Issue is intermediate certificate is missing if accessed outside VM. Attaching Screenshots for reference. Kindly suggest how I can resolve this issue.   Thanks,Siddharth

Windchill 12.0.2.12, pdmlink 12.0.2.7I have a requirement to update the creator name of a bunch of libraries in Windchill. The person that created the libraries is no longer with the company and automated emails/Library Details clearly show their name as a potential point of contact. Our users are confused by this and wonder why they never get responses to their emails (i.e. creator != librarian). Ideally, I want to change the name of the creator to a Windchill Admin Group participant, but just another current employee on that team will suffice - assuming we can change it again later. Of course, I can't simply edit that attribute, even after adding it to the layout. So, I'm guessing some code will be needed. Any advise is greatly appreciated.

. Don't we have a backup and restore system that allows us to restore files that have been corrupted by Windchill (and not by the user)?

HiAn user has checked in some prt files and drawings into Windchill. He has created the Promotion request as well and it got approved.How to show the "approver name" into the drawing title block?Please share your thoughts.regardsRadhakrishnan

Hello dear community,I want to reflect an attribute I use in the change task to the change notice to which it is linked.I think I should use an alias attribute for this, but when I try it I get an error.The attribute named WORKDAY is selected in the change task and I want it to appear in the primary attribute in the change notice. In the article on support, it is written that you should use the "wt.change2.WTChangeActivity2" method for the change task.The MAP I tried in the Alias ​​attribute is as follows;

Hi All,I'd like to extend the length of name field for WTDocument as business wants.OOTB its 160 characters need make it 300 characters.Any reference would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,While watching a PTC webinar I saw that in the structure visualization panel in Windchill there are measurement commands (see image 1).I checked my system (version 12.1.2.5) and I don't see them(see image 2). How can I add them?Is there a property or preference to set? ty,Matteo.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.0.1I have a custom windchill java class(contain code to fetch epmdocuments and its attributes). i m invoking this class from another class that has RemoteMethodServer RMI invoke code. All these files are deployed inside codebase location on windchill server.Now my question is,1. I want to call this java class(which has RMI invoke code) from another remote machine using a .bat script. So that I can execute custom Windchill class remotely. How can I achieve this?

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.5Is Windchill_12.0.2.5 compatible with client OS Windows11?.

We are trying to incorporate ECAD data into windchill and have been having a difficult time. We tried schematics with the bridge, but it was buggy. We've looked into autocad and solidworks electical as well. We rarely deal with PCBs and mostly it is cable or power distribution schematics. Here is what we are trying to accomplish: Engineer makes a schematic / cable drawing and uploads to windchillDocument Uploads to windchillSchematic is auto associated with a WT Part that contains a BOM of WTparts with required connectors/backshells, wiring, sleeving, etcAny ideas on if there is any OOTB that will solve this?

Hi Community! We allow users to open tickets from the menu in Folders. How can I bring this ticket button to the Windchill homepage?When users want to open a ticket, I want them to be able to do this from the button on the home page.  

I'm working on setting up some basic parameter -> attribute mapping in our system and would like to know our options for populating newly mapped Windchill attribute fields from existing model parameters. From what I've learned so far, a model/drawing must be modified in session and saved to the workspace to show a value in a Windchill attribute column (in the workspace), indicating propagation. Then, of course, uploading pushes information to the server side (with validation) and check-in pushes everything to commonspace. I also have to consider legacy data variability. While I know of parameters serving a similar purpose in past models/drawings, they are not the same and thus will have no association (still working that one out). There is also the issue of the correct parameters potentially not being designated in older content, which again, is something I need to see if I can feasibly sort. I'll take any information anyone is willing to share on these topics, but fi

Does anyone know if the Gant chart will be brought back for MPMLink in future versions?

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.2 and Datecode with CPS 11.2.1.0I Want to upgrade from Windchill 11.2 to 13 is this possible without installing Windchill 13 separately?

How can I invoke/run the custom Windchill class(deployed in Windchill home directory) from a batch file(.bat) in another (remote) machine?

I am using. Windchill 12.2.2.12 and PDMLink 12.0.2.7 I have an attribute defined at my Library context that lists all the business holidays for the next few years. I'm trying to create an alias attribute for a Problem report type that gets created inside the library. The new problem report should have the attribute shown on the details page and along with it, list all the dates entered at the library context. After saving the change to the PR attribute, I switch back to the details of a PR and refresh. The attribute name is shown but it has no values (which should have come from the context/parent). From what I've read, I'm pretty sure this can be done, but I can't figure out the proper syntax. I used Logical Attribute Report to get the full internal names. What I've tried so far:containerReference^com.myCompany.myLibrary~attbHolidayscontainerReference^com.myCompany.myLibrary~com.myCompany.myLibrary.attbHolidayscontainerReference^IBA|com.myCompany.myLibrary~IBA|com.myCompany.

Dear all, first of all: have a nice Christmass day! I fill my time in between visiting friends and family with some Windchill challenges:- One of the users reported that the Structure within Windchill sometimes does not reflect the structure of the CAD model. I did some research, looked for CAD settings like "Exclude from Bill of Materials" and eventually found out that 4 CAD parts were checked-in but where not associated with their Windchill parts. The Windchill parts are available. So it seems the user did not use auto-associate at first  ckech-in. Once found these issue's are easy to solve. But now I want to check all server data for more non-associated CAD data and make sure this can not happen in the future. And with these topics I can use some help: - how can I make a Windchill query searching for CAD models that are not associated to a Windchill part?- how can I restrict users from checking in CAD parts without associating the parts to a WTpart?, difficulty i

An electrical engineer that designs circuit boards, I’m a new poster to this forum and new Windchill user.Could someone bring me up to speed on a few matters?  Our WC admin guy, bless his heart, is a mechanical engineer and can’t fathom why my non-PTC circuit board layout tool (Altium Designer) doesn’t mesh as well with WC as his Creo MCAD tool does.I’ve been doing a lot of reading of Windchill support documents on PTC’s website but I’m still puzzled about something called Windchill Desktop Integration, which might be the basis for the questions that follow.First Question: When I click on a file shown in WC’s HTML presentation of my files  (what is Windchill’s term of art for this presentation?) I indeed get a file downloaded to my computer.  However, the downloaded file has a weird name like data(2).wcdti.Why won’t the web-based presentation of my WC files deliver me those files in the form (i.e. file name) that I originally uploaded to Windchill?  Does this m

In some cases we see additional components appearing in the Windchill EPM structure as compared to the assembly structure in the Creo assembly. The dependency type of those extra components is "Substitute Member" - they are related to operations with Simplified Reps which were done inside Creo.There is a documented way to remove them from the Windchill EPM Structure view, by applying a filter, as outlined in https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS184158However, applying the the filter does not affect the visualization, as seen in the Visualization tab, or if opened in Creo View, you still see the extra components there.I got a feedback from PTC Tech Support, that a way of getting the structure visualization correct is by viewing through the related WTPart structure - which is true, but I find it hard to believe that you in this scenario simply cannot trust the EPM structure visualization, and have to live with a discrepancy between the filtered EPM structure and the correspondin
