Windchill

We have a Business process where by 2 hange Notices are required, the second will be started manually when the first is approved. I have a workflow activity at the end of the 1st CN to create a 2nd CN, I have used the "Create New Change Notice" task form template, which didint work as subject class is Change Request, so I made a new task form template and chose the Change Notice as the subject class and added "New Change Notice" as the Action on subject, but I dont see any action, has anyone had any success creating task form templates to create a new Change Notice?

Hello, I have a requirement where I need to configure email notification being sent at the end of a change notice process to certain non-windchill users, the issue here is the list of email ids are not static for every change notice. It differs from object to object, the list will be determined by the creator of Change Notice at the time of its creation. There could an IBA configured to capture the list of email ids, but I want to know how we can send an email to this list, is it only possible through code or can we configure something in the Notification robot to achieve the same. Requesting you to shed some light on the same. Thanks,Sha 

Hello Community, Is it possible to use the system variable JAVA_HOME in the Windchill settings (site.xconf and thus also wt.properties, etc.)? We have an automated update process that updates Java every three months. This also changes the path to the JAVA_HOME directory every time. Many greetings

Where do we specify starting of the number or prfix In autonumbering customization for Windchill ? i.e. I want numbers to start 230010x (x being incremented every time) Thx                  

Hello, I have a workflow activity which gets assigned to multiple roles, lets say RoleA and RoleB. My requirement is whenever Rework was selected by any user in RoleA, RoleB's activity should get closed and Rework path must be taken. Only in case of Approval, both roles needs to vote. Background Information:i) The activity is of type Any and Required field is selected.ii) I introduced the WfTally APIs in routing expression, but they do not seem to be executed when one role completes the task. Regards,Sha

I am working in a top level assembly & respective drawing. The changes are pretty simple.But there are few sub level assemblies are coming as failed due to their component placement (Released state),...So, when I fix them locally (Workspace) & try to check-in the assembly & drawing, it gets successfully check-in but the drawing pdf (Auto created by Windchill) showing the incorrect placement of few parts from failed sub level assemblies.Now, I want to fix this issue without revising the failed sub level assemblies. So that I can get the correct drawing pdf (as per local modifications that I have made). Do you have any solution to tackle this issue?

Our approach is to increase the revision only if it is a product change. When it is a change in the model, for example regarding formulas/conventions/ reference points on the background, we do not want to increase the revision. How to deal with this? Best Practice?    

Hi. Have you figured out how to do this? I have the same issue.   RE: post

Hi, is there REST API available to get all parts from windchill which will fetch only given specific view type? Below is the url i was using but it gives me error, please provide if anyone knows the solution. URL : "http://......../Windchill/servlet/odata/v1/ProdMgmt/Parts?$filter=view eq 'Design'" Errror : "error": {         "code": null,         "message": "The property 'view', used in a query expression, is not defined in type 'PTC.ProdMgmt.Part'."           }}   Thanks in advance.

Hello there,                  I want to create local attribute for EPM document but  I cannot create  local attribute for  EPM documents even though i added columns (using Add columns in windchill shell), but i can create local attribute for WTPart and Documents using Add columns, is there any way to customize the creation for local attribute for EPMDocuments or we cannot create local attributes for EPM documents???

There are too many references between the data and I think I have too much garbage data. What do you think I can do? is there a way for me to remove references from past versions? Thank you very much in advance. I'm talking about CAD data.

I just happened to be flipping between my dev server and production and notices something odd. I was missing teams for change notice and change request. Now Dev is straight OOTB 12.0.2 and my production has been updated since version 7 back when we used CMII workflows. Its not too difficult to rebuild but wondering if there was an upgrade step along the way that remove them or was it me accidentally deleting them. I could not tell you when it occurred. Checking OIR rules,  I can see that it was looking for a team called "ECR" for change requests and "ECN" for change notices. I do not use these OIR rules at the site level, workflows or lifecycles so nothing failed. It would fail if it tried. All my mapping is done at the Org or product level. ECR was tied to CMII Change Request lifecycle and ECN was tied to CMII Change Notice lifecycle. From what  I can tell, all lifecycles and workflows exist, old and new.

Which Workgroup manager Version do i have to download for Windchill 12.0.0.0?   

Hi,I design desktop application using java. Need to download  files from server using onclick button function I need java API  for checkout and download  action in windchill.    

Hi,I want a sample input for create document service which is present under Document Management.Thanks. 

My Windchill system is ignoring client-side published files.PVZ files get attached from a client-side check in (models and viewables) with a Categroy=Viewable, but the WVS service ignores them at time of publish. A server-side publish takes place ignoring the primary attached PVZ      

So I got my Office doc worker running and I love it. Produces PDF representations of Office files and neat thumbnails. Yes, eye candy but it provides a seamless user experience so people know, see an image, you can click and view it in Creo View. This aligns the system to be the same for Creo data and ECAD. My only hold out is WTDocs where primary content is a PDF.   I came across this article (How to automatically generate representation for the pre-converted files... ) which gets me one step closer since it allows PDF files to be treated like preconverted data. A representation is created based on the primary content.   Checking the logs I see this when it was processed: Feb 9, 2023, 2:52:42 PM:Document Processing Returned: /pdmlink/ptc/Windchill/tmp/pubtemp/publish17987521139876482678.tmp/WWGMCompatibilityMatrix (1).pdf Feb 9, 2023, 2:52:42 PM:Start Store Document Viewable Files Feb 9, 2023, 2:52:42 PM:Retrieving Additional Files Feb 9, 2023, 2:52:48 PM:No Thumbnail C

I'm having a lot of issues trying to create a bat file for silent installation of WGM 12.1.2.0. Below is the basic file I have been trying. When I have the -destination at the end, the setup program launches, but interactively. When I remove it, sometimes the installation proceeds, but it only installs the XML files and not WGM as a whole. I have also tried the -xmlall command to no avail. Is anyone else having this issue? SETX PTC_WF_CACHE C:\PTC\WGMcache\.cacheSETX PTC_WF_ROOT C:\PTC\WGMcache\.wfSETX PTC_WFS_ROOT C:\PTC\WGMcache\.wfsSETX PTC_WGM_ROOT C:\PTC\WGMcache\.rootSETX PTC_WLD_ROOT C:\PTC\WGMcache\.wwgmSETX PTC_WFS_DEFAULT_LOCATION C:\PTC\WFS \\SAMPLEPATH\setup.exe -progressbar –xml \\SAMPLEPATH\uwgm.p.xml –xml \\SAMPLEPATH\mcad_autocad.p.xml –xml \\SAMPLEPATH\mcad_swx.p.xml -destination C:\PTC\wgm
