Windchill

Hi together... if I execute the following si diff command... si diff --r=1.1 --r=1.2 --project=#/BRK#ProductDevelopment/SubSystems/SsmPb/08_Software#d=IQM_INTEG_SsmPb_Core_A#SSM_PB_APPL/03_Integration/Project_Conf --hostname=skobde-mks.kobde.trw.com --port=7001 "version_config.ini" the CLI interface response contains the detailled differences between the two revisions (1.1 and 1.2 as requested): Showing differences ...Showing differences ...version_config.ini"version_config.ini": Differences between Revision 1.1 and Revision 1.22c2< SOFTWARE_NAME="113_70"---> SOFTWARE_NAME="114_00" Due to a general decision we I want to replace all Command-Executions against the CLI Interface by Command-Executions against the Java-API. But the Java API does not provide the blue marked details. I have the same problem when I execute the Command against the SOAP Interface. How do I get the missing details from the Java API/SOAP interface? ==========================Java

We have currently mapped the PTC_WM_NUMBER and PTC_WM_REVISION to our title block in Solidworks drawings and are looking to leverage the Where Used attribute from the View Information/Where Used table view. Does anyone know what the label for that information is called? I would assume something along the lines of PTC_WM_WHEREUSED_01, PTC_WM_WHEREUSED_02, etc., is that the case?   FYI, we are using Windchill WGM 11.1 and currently on Solidworks 2022 SP5.0.   Any help with this is appreciated.   Todd    

Windchill 11.1OData API 2.2.2 Hello all,I am trying to retrieve / filter on classification (parts) via the OData classification search, However, data types are either not mapped correctly or I need to use a different leaf node - I just do not know which one. Here are some examples:1) Filtering by a boolean attribute: WORKS: Request: /Windchill/servlet/odata/v3/ClfStructure/ClfNodes('NODE_NAME')/ClassifiedObjects?$filter=ClassificationAttributes/any(d:d/InternalName eq 'SOME_ATTRIBUTE' and d/DisplayValue eq 'true') DOES NOT WORK: Request: /Windchill/servlet/odata/v3/ClfStructure/ClfNodes('NODE_NAME')/ClassifiedObjects?$filter=ClassificationAttributes/any(d:d/InternalName eq 'SOME_ATTRIBUTE' and d/DisplayValue eq true) Response:{  "error": {    "code": null,    "message": "The types 'Edm.String' and 'Edm.Boolean' are not compatible."  }} However, the attribute's type clearly is a boolean, so this la

License management is done at the site level, but is there anyway to give someone access to the license information page without being a site admin? Their goal is to be able to see how many licenses there are and how many are available. Won't need access to load license file. 

How can we extract the Promotion Notice objects with all the history ? Please share if SQL is available. 

We have some very old pencil drawings that we store in Windchill as PDF files.  These drawings are tabulated, we call them chart drawings.  For example, the pdf drawing's name and number is "1780-1" in Windchill.  On this drawing, are tabulated parts that might be named FP0001 thru FP0032.  We want to be able to link all 32 of the tabulated part numbers to the PDF file in some way so that if we search "FP0017", Windchill will pull up the "1780-1" pdf drawing.   We are OK adding these "FP" numbers manually into Windchill, we just don't know how or where to do this exactly and be able to search by these "FP" numbers.

Hi All, Is it possible to make the setup and support the windchill on Google Cloud Platform? If yes can anyone please help me with some details. Thank You in advance.     

Hello everyone,I have Windchill PDM Link 11.1 M020  I am try to download folder content from windchill server using REST API in java but, I have triedfrom Article - CS346406 Windchill REST API but it wont work. What should I do can someone please suggest me another API for this or another way to get folder content to download at the local storage using REST API  

Greetings Windchill people.We are just starting to plan the use of an mBOM from our eBOM.Our eBOM contains many COTS and Standard parts that will not be revised and should only be in an mBOM view.We plan to assign all these wtParts as our mBOM view. These COTS and Standard parts will be displayed in the eBOM structure with a view filter that displays both eBOM and mBOM view parts.For engineering parts that we control the design we will Duplicate with Propagation so that each eBOM view of the part has a mBOM view (green check). Question.When another assembly is ready for downstream mBOM view creation and uses the same COTS / Standard parts that are already in mBOM view, we would expect the equivalence link icon to be a green check mark?It is currently the yellow triangle (equivalence does not exist on any iteration).We can manually select the same part in the upstream and downstream and establish equivalence but would expect to not have to do this.What do we need to fix?Is there a

Just like this but in a separate page. 

We use the Multi-level Components Report a lot for getting consolidated quantities in a single sheet. And then today, I ran into a case where it's telling me I have no quantities of a part on a BOM when I'm in fact looking at the part on that BOM.  Is this a bug or am I missing something obvious?  

After upgrading to Windchill 12 Audit Log Purge Management page stopped showing purge results. Does this mean that this page really stopped working in showing purge job results after Windchill 11.2?   

The default clipboard size is 250, the models my company generates are far larger (average 5k, however, 15k files is not out of the realm of possibilities). Inside a change notice anything after 1000 causes massive delays if it ever completes. How else do I add the items to the Affected Items box or include them as part of the change?

This is not a question but a share, one of the features I miss about the old community platform. Not everything is a question.  A while back I added these custom WVS Publish actions to my system which appear in the Search Results toolbar: Windchill PDMLink : An example of customized WVS Job Scheduler Methods... Recently, I enabled a Thumbnail worker to publish representations on PDF documents. Now, how best to find those PDF document and batch publish them? I could create a custom search looking for "PDF" file format and just click that action but I want something that shows me what's left. Enter the Report Template. I created a report that returns document that have no default representation.  Now, I can run this and select a bunch of documents to publish until they are all done. I do not want to overwhelm the publisher since its day time but I can throw a few hundred every now and then till search comes back zero. Easy.     

Hi,     I am new to PTC Windchill tool and Reliability calculations. I have been trying the Try out version of the tool. I want to find the FIT rate of some components in my BOM. Could any one please give the procedure for doing the predictions using the windchill tool   Thanks in Advance   -Ajith         

 I have also attached oir file. Please provide me with the solution. Thanks in advance Vipul gaikwad 

I need to configure OIR for change activity to have two lifecycle templates based on the value of an attribute. the attribute is <Attr id="change_owningChangeItem"/> and it's value can either be "Change Implementation - xxxxxx"  or "Change Notice - xxxxxxx" where xxxxx number is generated by system. if the value is "Change Implementation - xxxxxx" then LC needs to be "Change Implementation LC"if the value is "Change Notice - xxxxxxx" then LC needs to be "PLM Change Notice LC"     

I am looking for Windchill 11 vs Windchill 12 modules comparison. Is there any kind of report from which i can compare both?     

Revisiting old thread...again. Is it Groundhogs day? https://community.ptc.com/t5/Windchill/Any-workarounds-for-quot-branch-point-quot-failures-when-purging/m-p/283085 https://community.ptc.com/t5/Windchill/Purging-old-WTPart-iterations/m-p/397907 https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS18659?source=search I would like to know the real deal behind this. PTC is not going to fix this but I can't see why not unless it has something to with WTPartUsageLinks getting all messed up. If to preserve history,  I can let that stuff go if it means I can clean up old iterations to remove holds on stuff I want to delete. The image below shows that MFG view was created off A.7 which means you cannot purge this or anything after that unless you delete A.- (yes, this is how downstream view versions looked back in the day). Seems like there should be a job or preference to just shift the branch point to the latest iteration A.8. I know there a SQL hacks and I could probably write something to fix

What actually is Replica server ? this is same as actual production server that has application and copy to another physical servers?then what is replica vaults? how the connection is made between Main site and the replica server?I am just confused between Replica server and replica vaults. can you please explain me in detail.@BenLoosli Or do you have any document that has the details of replication configuration and precisely explain the Master site and replica site?   

Has anyone had any luck setting up the Solidworks 'Design Library' to work with Windchill? Searching the Windchill Help Documentation doesn't seem to yield any results.   It seems like Solidworks 'Design Library' setup files need to be on a local or network folder. I would guess Windchill wouldn't like this (ghost objects, possible publishing problems, etc.).   Note: the Solidworks 'Design Library' is not the Solidworks Toolbox (which has a Windchill help page for how to configure with Windchill).    

Hi,   Has anyone come across the below scenario. I would like to understand more on this.   We use the OOTB Promotion request Workflow process for an object and after raising a Promotion Request, in the Approvel Promotion request task when the approver sends it back for rework the primary object goes back to Inwork state. At this point in time, we need to restrict the users to create another Promotion Request for the Primary object, as the ACL would let the user to create a Promotion Request. Can this be achieved through any of the OOTB options or should we go only through the validator route and write a piece of code?   Thanks in Advance!   Amarkarthi.

Hello all, I have added an action to anonymize a user from Windchill and LDAP. I have also added the action in the pop up menu on the Participant administration page. However, I want that the action should be performed even when the user is not selected. This is similar to the OOTB delete action already implemented by PTC. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this? Any comments or ideas will be appreciated. Thanks, I am adding the screenshots for the error message and the action . Thanks again,Ramsha

I'm working on an event handler that will check when a part has it's 'Common Attributes' updated. Has anybody figured out which event those actions trigger? I've tried a handful of those out of PersistenceManagerEvent but they don't seem to be the right ones.
