Windchill

Hello Community, This is not a usual query that you see in this forum. Since mine is related to PLM I thought of picking your brain. I have been a Windchill Developer for the past four years and I have a good handle on customization aspects of some of the Windchill modules. I now have an opportunity in a new project where I would be working more on the Windchill Administration side such as server installation, upgrade, Import/Export, defining processes for the users. Though this seems interesting, it is not the customization arena. As someone who wants to be a Solution Architect in the future, what would be your advise regarding this? Thanks in advance.    

Dears, I have created a new subtype of change notice and a subtype of change task, when I create a new change notice for a part I need to define the change task, for this change task I am using my own defined subtype, when clicking on the completion of this task I need to use the I need to use a custom Form Delegate to check the lifecycle state of the resulting object when clicking on the completion of the task, I've already implemented it, but this customized function will affect all the change tasks, so is it possible to define the Form Delegate only for a specific subtype? Thank you!  

we have a State based versioning scheme with 2 different version d1,d2,d3 are from in-work to pilot and OR, A,B,C,E. are for after released.with the help of Automatic Revision Mode we achieved this revision but in lifecycle we marked inwork (sop inwork) for revise.so it is not going to targeted state released (SOP). it is revised and move to (sop inwork).anyone kindly do the needful.      

I have created a custom Versioning Scheme which should work with State Change from Approved -> Released ( i.e A.1 (Approved) will change to 1.1 (Released) State change either manually or when triggered in custom Workflow)   Has anyone encountered such issues, as this custom versioning is working for Object Revise action but not for Set State action / in Workflow State Change   Your support is appreciated. Thank you.   Lifecycle Transition:     where highlighted series is my Custom versioning Series name                

I'm trying to attach attachment (local file) to Nonconformance using REST (OData) API.In WRS (Windchill REST Service) - Nonconformance Domain there's no REST endpoint to do so. Please let me know the right approach or API to get the above endpoint for adding an attachment at the time of creation of Nonconformance. Other Information Windchill version - 12.0.2.7Module name - QMSContainer name - NonconformanceObject - WCTYPE|com.ptc.qualitymanagement.nc.NonconformanceNC creation 2nd wizard -> Set attachment -> Attach new local file.  

Hello,   I’m trying to pull the tree structure of two of the Nonconformance attributes "NC Category" & "NC Trending Categories", into Thingworx.   At Thingworx side, we can parse xml or json input; preferably with the tree (parent-child) details.   Please let us know the right approach or API to get the above attributes along with parent-child (tree) details

Hello everyone, I'm currently in search of the Windchill customization guide PowerPoint presentation from PTC Academy which I have seen previously. This presentation contains code screenshots and other visual elements. While I already have the customization guide in PDF format, I'm specifically interested in obtaining the PowerPoint presentation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.     

Our Client work has a need for development. Windchill 12.1.1.0 (12.1.1.5 release) is used. When doing change management and new product releases in Windchill, our designers have difficulties to inspect that all necessary items have been added to the change object (ECN / resulting objects). We can modify the WT-structure view to show "change status" column. That shows us a clear visual view to check that all necessary items (WT-parts) have been added to the change notice. Problem is that in assemblies CAD-structure view its not possible to get "change status" to be shown. The change object (EPR, ECR, ECN) is linked to every WT-part and CAD objects when the object has been added to the change notice. And it can be seen in single part CAD-view etc, but problem is that in bigger assembly views, single CAD-part "change status" cant be seen. The status can be seen in WT-structure view, when selecting the wanted WT-part from the assembly and under "Viewing" - "Show" - CAD

We have 1 production PDMLink 12.1 server and 2 test/dev 12.1 servers that were created by upgrading from an existing 11.1 server. Built a 4th server with an OOTB installation, and copied over the production Oracle database and ldap export, but get the following error: User not found: unknown web name: "wcadmin". Now when I run the wt.auth.Authentication command, my user/password for wcadmin works. When I try logging on using that user/pw, I get the above mentioned error. I have tried installing PDMLink 12.1 with temp user and OOTB built database, and then changing the information to match the production info, and tried installing against an existing copy of the prod database and ldap info. Seems things are different now that the Windchill Directory Server is no longer bundled with the PDMLink installation. Just wondering if anyone has done something similar for PDMLink 12.1. Many thanks in advance!

Hello, I downloaded the PTC Solution Installer for Windchill 13. I'm running the installer on Linux CentOS 9 Stream + Java 17, for somewhat reason, the installer gets blocked on the first step: "Please wait, PTCSolnInstaller is being configured for your system. This may take a moment"Stays like that until I close it. When I go to the /tmp directory I see that the installer creates a install.dir folder. Inside the temp.lax file I see a message:"The installer either could not find a Java VM, or the Java VM on this system is too old. The installer requires Java 1.1.5 or later. It can be downloaded from -java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/".The strange thing is I have Java already installed. Any idea why it cannot find the JVM or it's something else?  

As per this thread - same issue    Hi Sudeep I am facing the exact challenge that you were - finding the API to create a New View Version of an existing part. I was exited to find what seems to be a "yes the API exists" but struggle a bit since I am only used to work with the REST API. Can you provide input to whether the "Create New View Version" also exists in the REST API?  

When trying to create a HTML representation of a DMC in Windchill, I encounter an error that said "data marked not to be published or not published due to filter".  the Issue number is 001 and the In Work number is 001 and the State in in work in progress. Greatly appreciated if someone can provide the cause of the error and ways to resolve it.

I defined a datautility to control the display text of some Attributes, but when I looked on the attribute tab of the structure Tab, I didn't see it as I saw it on the main attribute page(first Tab). When I debug the attribute of the structure tab, I found that it would enter the getPlainDataValue method of DataUtility. But the first parameter to this method is just the id of the registered datautility instead of the normal component id, so how do I get the original value of the component with datautility set?

Hi, is any one aware of getting the file from Application data, I have a attachment XML as secondary content to EPM Document, I want the XML as File rather than applicationContent and pass the File as a parameter to other method. Anyone aware of this please add in your comments or suggestions. Thanks 

Does anyone know what type of file between WGM and 3DExperience? 3DXML? XML?  

I am looking for a workaround to edit and delete views without having to edit them manually through View Administration. This article says it is not possible via loadFromFile, is there some other way?

This is really weird and I have playing with it for 2 weeks now. All systems do the publishing on their Windchill server. Mix of Windows 2016 and 2019 servers, but I don't think that natters, All systems running on Oracle. System 1 - Windchill 11.1 M020 CPS20 Creo 7.0.10.0 CreoView Adapter 7.1.1.0 Publishing starts automatically when a file is either requested or checked-in. This is the desired configuration. System 2 - Windchill 12.0.2.10 Creo 7.0.10.0 CreoView Adapyter 7.1.1.0 Publishing does not start automatically. If I manually start the Proeworker, then the system will publish the files as expected. I just disconnect from the server and let it run.
