Windchill

I have a custom role called Engineering Manager. Can we show this on the Create Change Task form? I see Assignee, and Reviewer OOTB, but I want to add another role, which will be a user picker in the form.    

Hi all I have got a WTPart(1.01) link to an EPMDocument(1.01). I perform an attribute update using a custom tool which results in iteration i.e WTPart(1.02) and EPMDoc(1.02). When I try to create a representation from the WTPart(1.02) it picks the EPMDocument(1.01) to create the representation though latest config is specified. I get the following warning in WVS Job Monitor Warning: EPMDocument Config Spec selects a different iteration of the specified top level EPMDocument, specified EPMDocument iteration will be used.I actually want it to take the latest version of EPMDoc(1.02) for creating representation.Can somebody please help me understand this issue or correct me if my approach is wrong?Thanks in advance.  

Hello Windchill,What should I do if I want to change logo?I need some detail steps...  -Zhangyue 

In the past, we hired a couple of contractors to manually enter all the attributes into Partslink.  We have another division that will be migrated into our Windchill.  Is there an XML file that we can use to import the attributes?   

Documents here are pdf, word and not CAD docs.We have custom Engineering specs document template, which is a pdf and looking to have auto association created for these pdf with wt part.Windchill Customization‌

I am using Windchill MPMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.0.2Any time we use the function'Assemble As New Branch' of XBOM Transform we obtain an error on screen: java.lang.nullpointerexception.

I have an WT part which is already existing PDM Link and associated with reference document, Now I need this reference document to be converted or changed to be drawing/document type. Is it possible??? If yes please guide me..!  @bsindelar  @STEVEG @BenLoosli @MikeLockwood @AL_ANDERSON @tstacy

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.10Based on Investigation from R & D team --> Reference Case # C12715267 for Search Indexer, I am opening this PTC case.Corresponding documentation and reports from R & D --> report / Preftables will be uploaded by Natascha Schwarz 

Im exploring Options and Variants. Upto this point I have only used Parameters and Constraints to create a variant. Want to understand, what is the difference between an assembly created using Actions configure (ie. A variant spec is created with a variant) and this approach where we get a CAD assembly directly and no Variant Spec.   

Hi,I had to add sequence to the implementation plan in the change notice, but I cannot hide it from users.They can intervene. Is it possible to block this from my profile or any other way?I must see but others must not.

Hello,   I am doing an R&D on the Windchill ESI - TIBCO - ORACLE COnfigurations and Mapping. I found this article below:https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/r12.1.2.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center/esi_install/ESIORACLEInstallConfig.html#   Mapping and configuration are precise, but I am not sure about the hardware Sizings, like 1. what OS is needed for Windchill ESI and TIBCO 2. What Java Version is required for Windchill ESI and TIBCO   Thanks,

Hi,I'm facing a strange behavior on WC 12.1.2.4 using PartsLink.The classification attribute displays the internal names of values for enumeration in Structure page, however on Details page it shows proper display value.Any suggestions.

Hi All,Has anyone been able to implement versioning (i.e. Revision capability) in ProjectLink through a customization? Any other frustrated community members want to get together to share cost on getting this done?PTC - any chance you're willing to look at the enhancement requests submitted on this issue?

Hello Windchillers,   This not a request , but more a way to share a workaround to  solve a problem  Some Administrators, are sometime asked to grant non admins users  a way to manage Windchill Queues. We can grant uses Permissions to modify WTQueues and their entries ,using loadfromfile as they are not exposed in policy administration , https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/cs247200  Permissions Processing Queue/Scheduled Queue.   with the above setting, users with above permissions will still require the queue link as the queue table is controlled by class com.ptc.core.components.validators.URLValidatorSiteUtilities,looking for admin rights     (view in My Videos)   To workaround this situation and making accessing the queues page more elegant  we can cerate a report for Queues a expose it to users , so users having required permissions, will be able to run the report and access the Queues ,other will get blank result

We are investigating to introduce MBOMs to our Windchill configuration. Today, we only manage an EBOM driven from our cad structure. For anybody who has introduced MBOMs to Windchill, what were your findings and things that we should prepare for?

Curious if anyone is using subtypes of Managed Baseline in Windchill?    As configured today, any user can create a Baseline in our system. We are considering making a few new subtypes that have access policies applied to them. The idea is that a Configuration Management (CM) or Product Development Process (PDP) baseline can only be created by a select few and are documented in our business processes. This would help move the Baseline creation from a nice to have item, to a need to have item that is created in a consistent manner according to CM decisions and our PDP.    I have a second request coming from the sourcing team that would like to create a Baseline once/week so they have a historical check point to determine if there have been any updates in a product structure. They need to know if anything has changed from the top level down to ensure they are forecasting and costing all the right components.
