Hi All, I would like to know whether some of you enabled publishing alternate bom to down stream system such as SAP using ESI and TiBCO Best RegardsPrajeesh Kumar

We have disabled representation copy forward when objects are revised and/or iterated.Is it possible to prevent representation copy forward when an object undergoes state change?In this case, if publishing fails, our watermark will have incorrect state information in the representation. --Kirk Wemple

Good afternoonI have searched through the threads and didn't find much on Serialization.We are looking into using Windchill for Serialization of our end items. We currently serialize from 50-60k part per year and are interested in how other companies track their serialized products. We currently have an access database that we enter the Part No. Description and manufactured date etc,,,Do you use windchill for this task ? if so What issues did you run into and would you do it again?Any feedback would be greatly appreciatedThanksMarc

Currently, I removed users & user group from PTC license groups in Windchill.But still users are able to login because the frequency of sync between windchill & FNO server is 24 hours.How to make the sync at point of time?

Hello everybody,in Creo Modeling, in the integration with Windchill, is it possible to define a softtype cad as in Creo Parametric?What is the way?Thank you,Matteo.

we have an IBA and it has a custom datautility. It returns a JSONComponent object , how can we use this datautility dynamically change the background color of the attribute?

I want to send these highlighted attributes to our ERP system via ESI, I suspect there would be a little customization needed. Has anyone done this before?

I see how to select PDM Essentials and software version on the PTC Support website but it appears to be showing information that is not applicable to PDM Essentials. Specifically, the Assembly Mode attribute is not required to be defined when creating a new part. How do I filter out all PDMLink and non-PDM Essentials information, or where can I go to get information only on PDM Essentials? 

As i am new to windchill, I just want to know that how to move the Windchill from present drive to the Another drive on same machine, so what procedure must be followed.   Thanks in advance for the support.

Hi Folks,Thinking about exploring options and variants.Our use case is a BOM that has parts that need to "mature" from one identity to another.The BOM may have a mix of mature and immature parts. Thoughts?

Hello, We want to introduce the extended positioning assemblies method in the company. I configured the Windchill and Creo template and it works fine with brand new data. My question is that how we can apply this new method for existing assemblies. We have used Windchill for several years so we have millions assemlby objects in released state. I don't want to check out or revise any assmblies.My plan was that:I created a global string attribute (XPOSASSY_STR) and added to EPDM document type. The default value was empty. I created a new Creo assembliy with one part. The .asm did not contain the XPOSASSY_STR parameter. I checked in the assembly. The info page contains XPOSASSY_STR empty attribute but the CADWorker generated a normal assembly representation. I repeated the test but the new Creo assembly contained the XPOSASSY_STR parameter and I got extended positioning attribute. So empty string attribute of object did not work fine if the CAD

Hello everyone,I'm trying to add a function to the Workflow Domain.The function must be call an external Java class, defined at path ext.internal.WorkItemFunctions, that search for all WorkItem defined for a persistence object (eg WTPart).In the Method server i receive this error (and my function is not visible at browser level 😞2022-03-07 17:58:35,605 ERROR [ajp-nio-127.0.0.1-8010-exec-1] com.ptc.odata.core.entity.operation.AbstractOperationContainerConfig orgadmin - operation doesn't have binding parameterName = WorkItemByObject [FunctionPropertyConfig={"isComposable":false,"name":"WorkItemByObject","description":"Return Work Item by object OID","parameters":[{"isNullable":false,"name":"ObjectId","isCollection":false,"type":"String"}],"returnType":{"isCollection":true,"type":"String"}}]. Attached the js, json and java class implemented. Thank you 

Dear PTC,please add the function "Forced Update" to Windchill Workspace. A function that actually updates from Commonspace to Workspace. A clear logic overwrite function from Commonspace to Workspace. Like it was in Intralink.Please do not suggest to me, to use "Add to Workspace" or to change settings or whatever. Just implement a "Forced Update" function to Windchill. Please do it.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.2 and Datecode with CPS 11.2.1.6Is it possible to prevent certain users from creating family table CAD objects in a context but allow them to create standalone CAD objects in the same context?

As per this thread, similar issue:   Hi Lori, I know it is a older post. Please have a look into it, if possible. Is there any option to change the template in below case.   I have a ".prt" file which uses a "X" template and now ".prt" is in "B" revision. Now, I want to use the "Y" template for that .prt file   FYI: I have 1000 of .prt files need to use the "Y" template. Do you have any suggestion on this?   Thanks! Senthilnathan.S

Hi teamI am using QueryBuilder to create reports.Where can I find the Primary Content filename?I have joined Document, Persistable, and ContentItem to find 'Identity (displayIdentity)'. This is a 'jumbo' field which concatenates Role, filename, Type, Name, CAGE, Rev, and something else. We want a simple filename field. Which table can I join to get this field?The ContentHolder table did not seem to help.Thanks -- Rick

PTC has decided that the WGM for Modeling does not support the .sd format. This decision has a huge impact on the transition of Model Manager customers to Windchill, unfortunately in a bad way.If the WGM supported the .sd format, special Modeling features would work again on the top-level assemblies. Likewise, the product view data would gain accuracy.But what would be the most important consequence:The duration of data migration from Model Manager to Windchill would be reduced from days to a few hours, and for large amounts of data from weeks to 1 - 2 days. This would enable many customers to move to Windchill.

We've upgraded our Windcill 11.1 server to 12.0.2.2, after upgrading we notice that the Change tab which was present in the object information page is missing and we try to create a new one but in the customize option itself it is not available.    I've attached the screenshot FYR...

has anyone else seen this, the weird part is doesn't always remove the objects, its kind of a hit or miss thing but lately its becoming way more consistent. i have the preference set to keep checkout after check-in, and when i'm done with it i just do a mass undo checkout either from the workspace or from the workspace menu where it shows all my workspaces and at the bottom it shows everything i have checked out, but then when i go back in there i'll have objects missing from the workspace, sometimes just the drawings are missing and the assemblies are still in there and other times the drawings and assembly are gone. unfortunately i haven't noticed any patterns of when it does and/or doesn't do it. thank guys/gals

Can anyone provide an example for how the Assembly Mode attribute can be set as mandatory/optional and how to decide where the attributes are displayed in PDM Essentials?Below is what I see in the Types and Attributes Utility that imply I should see the Assembly Mode as an attribute on a part or assembly but I do not see it.  

I have 1000+ objects I want to change for all these objects the value of an attribute.When I use the function "Edit multiple parts" it simply zooms on selected objects but I am obliged to change every object's attribute value.Is there a standard way to change many objects an attribute with a common value ?

As per this thread - @d_graham  I'm interested in the details! This becomes very helpful with the logging changes in Windchill 12 and how that impacts running workflows. I thought I'd check here before I went off and tried it myself.   Jamie
