Windchill

Hello, I have upgraded from CREO 6.0 to CREO 8.0 and I get an error "cannot be retrieved" occasionally when opening files which were created several years ago with CREO 2.0 or so (old version back in 2015).  Frustrating thing is that it is not consistent, sometimes I can open the files without a problem.  I thought it might be other programs that I have open, but I have not been able to confirm this.   Any idea how to solve this?

Hi,I am writing a custom FormProcessor that extends OOTB ImportFormProcessor and overrides postTransactionProcess() method. This Custom FormProcessor gets called when we click on Import on Import from Spreadsheet wizard  Added below entry in custom-action.xml<objecttype resourceBundle="com.ptc.windchill.ixb.importer.importerResource" name="ixb" class="com.ptc.windchill.ixb.importer.ImportJob" ><action checkaccess="true" name="createImportJob" uicomponent="IMPORT_FROM_EXCEL" ><command method="execute" class="ext.tagheuer.part.formprocessors.customImportFormProcessor" url="/netmarkets/jsp/ixb/importer/import.jsp" windowType="popup"/></action></action></objecttype>  Basically, my initial requirement is to get all the Part details those are within the Importable Spreadsheet.Is there any API to get all the part details which are within Importable Spreadsheet?Can someone suggest? Regards,SY

Somehow, I've modified CAD assembly in my workspace and then checked it out, and now Creo Parametric keeps insisting it that it is "out-of-date". I tried to use "update" function: system asks for some objects in session to be replaced with ones from the workspace; I agree - afterwards, the annoying message is still there:   I've refreshed the workspace, tried to synchronize (says nothing to synchronize)...   So I don't understand - this is the latest version and it is checked out.  So by definition, how can it be out-of-date?   I have a feeling it would be something that will fix itself if I shutdown the computer and restart it.   But wondering if someone could shed light on this issue / offer a "hot fix" so I don't have to resort to the restart.

--iplocal --xml si projectcpdiff --project=/test/project.pj --recurse -r 1.1This command i applied and it doesn't show any differences. So what does it basically do. I don't know the purpose of this recurse command. I have the latest checkpoint 1.16.  

Hello,I am trying to investigate if there is a way to link the Solidworks Revision Table with the Windchill Revision and data. So basically, when i enter the revision information on solidworks custom properties tab, it should update the revision table in solidworks drawing automatically. the revision version itself should be linked to windchill version. This makes a lot of things automatic and saves me typing/ doing the tasks twice and its a more cleaner option. Is this possible in windchill? i know i have done this with Solidworks EPDM system but not sure how or if we can do it on windchill.  Any help much appreciated.  Thankyou,   

I have a solidworks database that I am bringing into Windchill WGM into a work space and eventually into my windchill server.I can easily save my assemblies to my workspace, however I have yet to figure out how to collect the drawings that are associated with all the components and subassemblies in the top level.How do I save my files to the workspace and send the drawings along with the components and assemblies?Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!-Morgan

Hi all,   I need to display error messages from a custom action in a separate alert window. This alert should pop up after the action is completed. Since this is only a simple display of error messages, I am trying to create a simple jsp page for this. However, I am facing compilation issues for this jsp page. I am attaching the error screenshot and the code. The custom action is "anonymizeUser". Any suggestions with respect to this will be highly appreciated.   Thanks and Regards

hello, I have a workflow and in this workflow, the flow goes to different parts according to the values ​​in the global enumeration in the attribute in a particular layout. In fact, I make users choose a section, and as a result, the flow progresses according to the selected section.     The problem is that I do this for each partition and I have 30 partitions in total. which means task and etc required for 30 sections.How should I use something here so that the participant I selected directly finds the role or group in the enumeration?

Hello,   I want to introduce a filter for an action which should restrict a certain set of users.   The solution I thought was to associate the set of users to a group, created under Organization context, and the filter will validate if the current user belongs to the said group and if so the action will be hidden.   I used the below mentioned API to find the group based on the user but it is not giving me any output i.e. enumeration is empty Enumeration enumeration = OrganizationServicesHelper.manager.parentGroups(validationCriteria.getUser().getPrincipal(),false);   Please provide an alternative way or an API I can implement.   Thanks and Regards, Hari R
