Hi all,I'm trying to build a report to catch list of WTParts of particular view.I've started working on the report attached in this article https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?source=subscription&n=CS208737As usual, without using a sub selection, you can see all revisions.Can someone help me to build it?P.S.: SQL query it's not an answer for this specific case.

Dear All Looking for some advice on Workflow expressions, I am attempting to customise the Workflow assignments as per the link below, I have added the REWORK_ASSINGEE to the roles, and the change team but when I run the syntax check I get the error below.   I have also added the roles of rework and reworkRole to the system and change team without success   Can you advise what I am missing.   I am on Windchill 11.2.1.4 https://support.ptc.com/help/wnc/r11.2.0.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center/WCCG_BusLogicCust_WorkflowAdmin_ChangeAssignments.html   Checking Syntax...

Hello We're considering how to optimally identify 3D models on drawings and standardize.  A variety of ways have been used over time including: - parametric fields with Windchill attributes in drawing title blocks - parametric fields with Windchill attributes in drawing view notes - parametric fields with Windchill attributes in drawing general notes   note: This also relates to having system-generated (Windchill publishing) PDFs and neutral 3D files (generally STEP) toward using technical data packages.   Interested in how others do this. Would appreciate any suggestions / lessons learned. note: This is one of many steps we are taking toward MBD/MDE. We created attached diagram as part of this exercise.

Hi,I'm trying to debug an Application for the Chromium browser, but the cache is enabled. How can I disable it? The Apache modules mod_header and mod_expires have no effect. Does anyone have an idea?Thanks and best regardsMichael

Hi there, our users required to enable the search for empty attribute fields. The Windchill documentation states that this can be done by setting the property com.ptc.windchill.search.queryBuilder.enableNullCriteria in wt.properties.xconf to true.   I am used to edit settings with the xconfmanager tool. The command xconfmanager -s com.ptc.windchill.search.queryBuilder.enableNullCriteria=true -t codebase\wt.properties.xconf -p failed with a lengthy error message (see attached file).   In the wt.properties.xconf file, a comment has been inserted at the beginning:   #-*- XCONF CONTENT START -*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*-!-*- # WARNING: # # This file has been updated by the xconfmanager tool located in, # $(wt.home)\bin but this file is not declared by PTC as being managed # via xconf. # # To ensure that your settings will be preserved the next time the # xconfmanager is run or an installer is used to install a new product or # a maintenance update to t

We are looking at a system where a As-Operated structure is set up in Windchill using Part Instances with a barcode attribute. We then want to be able to conduct an audit of the site using a barcode reader and automate update of the As-Operated structure from the barcode reader.   Has anybody setup something similar to this? I'm looking at whether it is possible and, if so, what sort of effort was involved to do it.

I have been trying to reassess our deployment process.  The process defines how we start projects and enhancements and how they move up the chain Dev -> Test -> UAT -> Prod.  Also, how do we investigate when things inevitably go wrong?Recently I have been looking into Git for our source control management for our projects.  Namely everything in wtSafeArea and wtCustom.  This works alright until you try to account for System-Specific settings such as which systems to integrate with, who are my workers, and how many method servers, etc... etc...   So I have created a long-life branch for each integrated system, Dev, Test, UAT, Prod.  This seems to be working for the most part, but might be a bit cumbersome to maintain.   That's when I thought that maybe our integrated systems would be better served as Repos.  Then have a Project repo that represents all of our actual project work.  Essentially using the system repos as backups of our

I'm looking for a super simple way to communicate superseded information to non-CAD users.  We have a (reasonably large) group of users that use Windchill just to pull PDFs and other derivative files (STEP, DXF, etc.), and when they do it is only from a simplified 'Google style' search page.  They are typically not navigating to the details page of an object and I wouldn't dream of asking them try to navigate to other tabs for usage or occurrence information.  I would like to simply add a column to the search results showing what object should be used in place of the superseded object   We don't currently use WTParts and I'm pretty sure I don't want to go down that road just to get the out-of-the-box superseded functionality.  From what I'm reading on the community (here and here), it doesn't sound like this information is very easy to display even if WT Parts are used.  Instead I'm imagining something like a global attribute that could be set on the super

PTC announced Windchill Mobile application for IPad and yesterday it appeared in AppStore.It is very welcoming app for me.But when I tries to connect to my server app tells that this server is not configured to work with mobile app.Does anybody know what additional configuration should I implement on server side? And what ports mobile app use? My server uses default 80 port for web access to windchill.PS This is on Windchill 10.0 M030.

Hi,I have a range of drawings that I have stored on Windchill. How do I genereate PDF files of these drawings? And is there a way of storing them/ exporting them to an external location outside of Windchill?Is this something that is done within Creo or Windchill?Thnaks.

Hi dear Community   My Windchill version is 11.2.Tried to add additional members to CIB during a Change Notice (in a specific product). Under Team there are a lot of predefined Roles (like CA 1, CRB etc.) but there is no CIB and I could not add the CIB role there. The only way I could achieve this is to make a product specific Change Notice Team from Team Templateand change (for the product) the OIR for Change Notice from the default Change Notice Team to my product specific, Change Notice Team. Am I missing something ? This is the right procedure ?   As far as I know CIB decisions are still offline, Change Admin II as chairman conducts the coordination and decides to approve or not the procedure. Is there a way to online inform (through Windchill I mean) the other CIB members ? In order to achieve this must I change the out-of-the box Workflow of Change Notice ?   Thanks in advance

Hi All,   In solidworks I have design with 4-configurations. While CheckIn with auto associate Parts we get only generic CAD associated with WTParts. All Configurations are shown under the family Table. Expectation is to have these configurations should show in EBOM like WTPart Structure. Thanks, Vishvanatha    

Hi,Looking for ideas to publish objects different from regular publishing output with specific file names.Say if object name with MANF Ex: 12190242-MANF-00A.drw, this need to publish additional or different output from the regular publishing.Let me know.ThanksMurthi

I was wondering if there is a permission that I can give users so they can see the part numbers in a Windchill Product, but not be able to open them?   We have Government documents that can't be accessible to all employees, so we have them in a separate Product. However this creates a bit of an issue when a person outside of the product searches for a part number, they get no return. So they think possibly it doesn't exist and try to use the part number. Then when they go to Check-In, it obviously says the number is not unique.   So I want it to still show up in searches, but they don't have read or write access to it. In Windows permissions its called LIST, didn't know if that existed in Windchill or not. Thanks

Is there a possibility to add the "Add to Managed Collection" Action to the Product Structure Actions? It seems like there has to be a different Action than the one in the More Actions Model.   Anyone got an Idea about that?    

Is there a Possibility to export an xlsx Table or anything similar from the Managed Collections Table? From every other Table view you can export the data into an excel sheet. Heres the Table Export for the Packages Content Table: This would be a very useful tool if such an export would be possible from the Managed Collections.    

Hi All,   Can we all know through an SQL Query or a procedure the list of all blocking sessions in PLM which is blocking other processes to wait or run lately?   In case if this cannot be done through DB can we do it through any other means.    

Hello,   There is a requirement where I have to introduce RTM Workflow as a sub-process for a Change Activity workflow so that the publishing will happen as part of Change Activity instead of Change Notice. Please let me know the accommodations or changes needed to achieve the above requirement. I am fairly new to ESI process, so any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks in advance.   Regards, Sha

Hello,   I have a requirement where I need to go to Change Notice workflow from the Change Activity workflow when it is at a certain point. When a particular robot is executed in the change notice workflow, the flow should again go back to the Change Activity workflow. Is there any other way to achieve the above scenario without using the Sync robot ?.    Thanks, Sha
