Windchill

Do you frequently use Windchill Workspace when working on your work tasks?   I am conducting remote research interviews with people who work with the Workspace. I'd like to talk with people who use the workspace to work on their CAD models and complete tasks. I want to learn about your Windchill workspace setup, what data is important to you to view in the workspace, and how you interact with the data.   I’d also like to understand what your intention, goals, and/or challenges are when working within the workspace. All research data is confidential and collected with the sole purpose of improving our new Collaborative Workspace feature in PTC products.    This 45-minute research study is conducted remotely via MS Teams. Research studies will be conducted between April 24 - May 4, 2023.   Sign Up Here or use this link: https://www.userinterviews.com/projects/n3JRyVR0vA/apply   Thank you,  Elizaveta Fay&

Has anyone successfully integrated walkme with Windchill?  Specifically doing walk thru's for change requests.    

Hello All, Greetings! I have been trying to configure CAD worker for Creo Parametric to work with Windchill PDMLink 12.0, but getting the error with connection to the Windchill Master Server. I have also tried all the steps from PTC Articles related to this error yet couldn't find a resolution. Connection Error Message What could be causing the CAD worker's configuration issues when using the Creo View Adapter to work with Windchill? Would appreciate anyone's support or guidance in resolving this configuration issue.  

I had a question come to me of how to release with a change notice straight to production. I have done it before. So I opened a change notice I had on another change request part I was working on to show them. I clicked revise and showed them where you delete the rev # and replace it with a letter and clicked okay to show where to set the release target. Little did I know I had messed up my file at this point I just did not know it yet.I deleted the resulting and affected objects and cancelled the change notice. I was just demoing for them.Next day I am ready to work on the object I used as an example. I see right away that the revise from 1>A has taken affect even though I never finished and submitted the change notice. I have found no way to undo the revise...I never intended complete the 1>A revise. It makes very little since to me that the revise takes affect without finishing and submitting the change notice. I guess its good to know that if I fat finger a key on the re

In PDMLink we have set a library is set for the Inventor Content Center as specified in https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/r12.1.2.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center/WWGMforAutodeskInventor/WWGMInvAdvTechInventoriPartFactContentCenter.html However at the bottom it says:Do not set the Define Library Used by Application preference when working with Project context. If this preference is set, the Content Center part gets silently checked in to the library location, but the workspace displays its general status as Another iteration is checked out by you.....But it does not explain how to work with content center files and ProjectLink projects otherwise.Does anybody here use Inventor in combination with Projectlink and how do you manage your content center?Would it be an idea to share the complete library to a Project's context as default setting?  Thanks,Alexander   

Is it necessary to go into Windchill and check out the WT part (along with the .asm or .prt file) whenever making changes to an .asm or .prt file? For example, say I check out an .asm file, make changes to it (i.e. add or remove a part), save it, then check it back in....all while not having the WT part checked out. Is it possible for the BOM of the WT part to become out of sync with the .asm file because I did not have it checked out?   

I follow FreeCAD, an Open Source CAD tool for some years now.I also have a Virtual machine with Windchill that i use for local test purposes. I thought would it be possible to (as nerd project) add FreeCAD as a CADworker.The FreeCAD files are basically zipfiles with some(https://wiki.freecad.org/File_Format_FCStd 😞xml files with propertiesbrep files with shapessvg files for drawingsCustom objects (for example .pdf files)Has anybody tried this / thought about this?If yes what is required to get this done?If no what are the hick ups that it is not possible?

We have recently moved up to Windchill 12.0.2 and looking at the latest updates in the Windchill Review object. I would really like to convince the Engineering team this is a good tool, but its still clunky and a bit difficult to use. Its based on Change objects.   I am having a difficult time finding complete documentation for the Review object. So far I have only found small topics in WHC and a few TS articles. Wish there was a comprehensive section in the WHC that described the configuration and setup along with the process of how to use it.    Is anyone using the Review object and are you having any success with it? 

I believe someone suggested look at this in the past to remind users of tasks or things. I am not looking for the banner message which I used for system announcements. I am looking to have the yellow banner message ping users perhaps when they log in. I am not sure that's a triggerable event. Is this documented in Customizer's guide and if so, under what search terms? Is there a better mechanism? I can see this working to appear when the user logs in or at a certain time of the day. I am holding just sending an email in my back pocket. Example:  "You have X tasks in your queue that need attention and XX tasks are past due"  

Hello All, I would like to know how we can generate the Self Signed Wildcard certificate using the keytool utility? If not possible through keytool, is there any other way using which we can generate the Self signed Wildcard certificate? Thanks,Avinash  

Our scenario is we have two contractors delivering a vehicle in the same Product.  We will refer to them as CONT1 and CONT2.  CONT1 is building existing vehicles and CONT2 is building new Model Year.  Probably 90% of the data is common between the vehicles. The goal is CONT2 can see EVERYTHING (no real issues); however, CONT1 cannot see anything NEW CONT2 creates.  For example, we have a WINDOW at REV.C and CONT2 revises to REV.D.  Now, CONT1 can see REV.C, but not REV.D.   Any ideas how to execute this?  Should I use Security Labels or possibly something like Edit Access Control and use folder control within the Product?   (Not sure our Admins have that setup yet for us).   I was thinking I could move REV.D to the CONT2 folder or possibly set a Security label for that REV.D file. Thanks!

Windchill PDMLink 12.0.2 We have been seeing sporadic issues with handful of random users not being able to use the search bar in Windchill after an upgrade to 12.0.2, over the past few months. There is a simple short term fix, which is to refresh the browser page. Sometimes it needs a hard reload (Ctrl F5 in Chrome). This then reloads the UI correctly from the windchill server and search then works once more. I have seen at least one other person on here report this problem, and appears to be related to Windchill checking license membership periodically and somehow the browser page and not having the up to date information to make a legitimate search attempt (or render the UI correctly) Search bar missing - License Schedule Queue?  Hoping to see if others have experienced the same so we can hopefully report as a bug in 12.0.2. 

Hello all, We are using the Windchill 12.0.2.2 and we would like to integrate our current windchill with the AWS IAM for the user management. So is it possible to do or use the AWS IAM as Active directory with the windchill. I tried to find some details over the google but didn't get any conventional details. It would be really helpful and appreciated if i can get some details on it, Thanks in advance.  

Looking for some details on anyone that may be using Gov Cloud along with S3 storage for PDMLink.  Both are supported, however there is a gray area if they are supported in combination.

When a user creates a workspace, a folder with the same workspace appears at Site (see attachment).  Is Site the default location for a folder to be created when a user creates a Workspace?   At Site, I see only  folders for the workspaces this one user has created (plus default workspaces).The Site folders contain CAD and Windchill Parts.  If the Windchill Parts are in a structure, non admin users see the parts as master because they don't have access to the parts because they are located at Site.The workspaces the users created are not affiliated with Products, not Site. What determines the location of Windchill folders that are created when a user creates a workspace?Why are the folders being created at Site for this one user? 

I am trying to create a Change Request.When I reach the character limit with more than one paragraph on Description, Comments, Proposed Solutions and Status attribute fields, I see the bytes error message. The number of bytes in this attribute value can be no more than 4000. The number of bytes currently entered is 4014. Does anyone know how to resolve this problem? does it have to do anything with OOTB file? are there any articles on PTC support which I can refer to?
