Windchill

We have a Send Email expression that fires via a Start transition once a workflow task is issued and a custom email message is delivered to the assignee. If the task is reassigned, we are expecting the Start transition to fire again and another email will get sent to the new assignee; but it is not.Is there any Windchill event that fires when a work item is reassigned?

Can someone help me understand what I am seeing.We have a wtPart with just one View (As Designed). At one time it may have been in a different view that we no longer use called Modeled and was converted to As Designed.On the Info Page / History for that part I only see on View for the entire history.But in MAPSB, the Downstream Equivalence Table shows views in Upstream and Downstream? 

Hi @MikeLockwood   I'm not able to set java 11 and 8 windchill driectory path.

Feature Usage Dashboard - WPA 3.1 is released with following features- In the Windchill Performance Advisor 3.1 release, the Feature Usage dashboard has been enhanced to show the data from the feature usage report, which was introduced in Windchill Releases 12.0.1. The feature usage information is useful for companies to learn about the usage of the Windchill user interface and formulate appropriate trainings, as required.   The Feature Usage dashboard prior to this release was based on the PSM data, however, with the retirement of PSM, the new Feature Usage dashboard is now built on the Feature usage report.   WINDU Recommendations- From Windchill release 12.0.1, Windchill introduced the automated execution of the diagnostic tasks. In the Windchill Performance Advisor 3.1 release, the Recommendations dashboard has been enhanced to use the data from automated WINDU execution and provide advanced recommendations for the WINDUs. These WINDU recommendations will help

Hello to all, is it possible to automatically restore a bill to which I have forced values (for example the quantity of some components) and realign it to the CAD structure? Or can I just make a comparison between the BOM and the CAD structure and realign it manually?   Thanks, Matteo

I have created few custom tools on PTC modeler using VBA script which needs to be available for everyone in the team. I don't want everyone to add them manually to the tools tab. So can this be added via SysML profile or any custom profile. where these custom tools will be loaded for everybody automatically?   or any other alternative?   Thanks in advance!!  

How to select the wtpartmaster.ida2a2 and wtpart.idA2A2 from a given WTP Partnumber?   I would like to provide only the WTPart Partnumber to enable the usage of the following query (using the latest version-iteration of the provided WTPart). This query is going to provide the EPMDoc association to a WTPart:   SELECT epmdocument.branchiditerationinfo, epmbuildrule.branchida3a5, epmbuildrule.buildtype, wtpartmaster.wtpartnumber, epmdocumentmaster.documentnumber FROM epmbuildrule, epmdocument, epmdocumentmaster, wtpart, wtpartmaster, epmBuildHistory WHERE ((epmbuildrule.branchida3a5 = epmdocument.branchiditerationinfo) AND (epmdocument.ida3masterreference = epmdocumentmaster.ida2a2) AND (wtpart.branchiditerationinfo = epmbuildrule.branchida3b5) AND (wtpart.ida3masterreference = wtpartmaster.ida2a2) AND (epmBuildHistory.idA3B5 = wtpart.idA2A2) AND (epmBuildHistory.idA3A5 = epmdocument.idA2A2));  

Is anyone using an Unsupported version of Creo with PDM-Link 10.2 ? If so are there any issues? We are planning on upgrading to Windchill 12 soon, however there are new manufacturing techniques in Creo 8.0 and I would like to be able to take advantage of them now (just for our CNC programmers). Would prefer if they could check-in and out files with PDM-Link, instead of having to export files and keep Creo 8.0 files on local disk.

Hello,    Has anyone used checklists as part of a Windchill Workflow task?  We want to use a checklist in the assigned activity to verify that the assignee has done everything they need to before the task moves on.  This seems like something that would be useful to many organizations, but I can't find anything for it.  I'm hoping someone out there has done this and can tell me where to start.    Thank you   -ddmartin3-

I am trying to install CreoView Adapters 7.1.1.0 on my Windchill 11.1. M020 CPS20 server which is running on Windows Server 2016. The matrix says I need the Desktop Experience and I checked with IT and they say they installed it that way. However, when I run the proe2pv_config.exe, the Setup button is grayed out. I also tried 8.0.0.0. Any suggestions before I contact PTC support?  

I messed up with my StateRB file.  How do I restore it to the previous version from backup?  I tried to copy the files there and run the ant command but it didn't take them.

I have created a couple of new products as wcadmin but other users cannot see them. Even my named account does not see the new products and it also has admin rights. I can search for a product name and see it that way, but not from a browse Product, even with selecting View All. The users only see the original 2 when we created the system in 2019. I do see the 4 products in the database using SQL Developer. What do I need to set so all users can see all of the products?

As per this thread - same problem Hi Jfrankovich, I am also looking for the same solution. Have your issue resolved? Regards, Uttam

Attached is a query builder report for listing work items assigned to disconnected users.  I have been able to get it to work for products or libraries only.     Does any one have any guidance for how I can define the report to return work items for both products and libraries in the same report.  Thanks.   --Kirk Wemple

I am trying to come up with some code to  A. Pull groups from org level B. Assign those groups to an empty role (based on some workflow variable)   For example:   if workflowVar = A (string), add members from groupA to role if workflowVar = B (string), add members from groupB to role   I was looking at some of the API on the javadocs, but not quite sure where to start. Any help would be very much appreciated!   Jacob

It is a basic requirement to delete the latest Doc version here, but the system not allowing and the article is not giving any proper solution. https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS184021      

I'd like to create the company standard under the law.When the law is amended, I want to change and reflect the relevant chapter of the company standard.What is the best pactices of the Windchill operation?I,m thinking of the following idea.First, create the DITA file for each chapter of the law or company standard.Then, Linked the corresponding DITA file of the law or the company standard.Finally, when the law DITA file is updated, the corresponding company standard Dita file is recognized.   If you have the better ideas, please let me know, thank you.

Anyone using Desktop Integration with property mapping? We are interested in using it to make Word documents like "smart" Pro/E drawing formats.From what I tried, we're missing something on the mechanism for refreshing attribute values - see attached. Note: To see the codes in Word, toggle Field Codes on / off.No reply on this yet from tech support. We'd really like to use this - hoping that the content of the Word file that you download is not dependent on having DTI on each machine used for download - but that's secondary to getting it to update attribute values at all.

When I edit a 'Create New Layout' to add an additional attribute, I get this message when I go to save it: "The type that you are trying to update was originally created in another domain. The Internal Name and Owning Organization will be updated with the information related to the current domain." Even if I enter OK, when I go to edit it again, the message comes back. How can I tell what the domain name is that is tied to the layout? How can I permanently update the layout so it is in the proper domain?   Windchill 11.0 M030 CPS16

Hi Windchill Guru's,  Is it possible to limit only one roleB item added to a Configurable Link table.   What customization/configuration do I need to do? Thank you,  -Boi

I am trying to connect Creo7 to Windchill 11.1 and get an error from the Server Management window in Creo. Insufficient Windchill license to Windchill Server, <server>, connection to <server> is refused. I have added my license with a download from PTC.com for my licenses. What step am I missing in this poorly documented process.
