Is there a way to disable the authentication for a single endpoint (custom JSP).

Hello everyone, please tell me how to upload a file to WTDocument using Info*Engine?Or how to use java to create a document and upload a file to it?  

Can permissions be set so a group can only see and download a stp file and creo view file of a part.   Thank you for any help anyone can give me.

I have an existing report template in our Production system that is linked to a report as well as several saved reports. I've developed a new version of it in our Development environment, and I'd like to load the updated report via QML and have everything downstream update accordingly. Is this possible? Normal behavior when you load via QML with the same name is that it will add a 1 on the end so you end up with 2 reports

I would like to know whether it is possible to import workspace via external browser to windchill. Due to Covid-19 we are stuck working from home, All our employees have a Locked creo license in their laptop, Now we are working offline by downloading our windchill data. There is no dedicated system for each individual at the office to do remote access, but we have one common server. If it is possible to uplode CAD data vis external Browser then we'll export it from out Laptop and sent it to the Server which we'll take remote access to import it through external browser. I know there's a VPN option but currently setting it up is taking more resources so looking for any simple alternative

Hello All,   We have one functionality "Part Number Generator" in Customization tab which helps the users to have a certain set of part numbers in store for them if they want to create new WTParts.   Now I want to restrict certain users from using this functionality, either hide the functionality or disable the option.   Please instruct me on how to proceed.    P.S: I have done customization in Java code but not so much with the jsp and js and all.   Thanks and Regards, Hari R

Hello,   I want to know the feasibility of doing export/import classification through code.   Please let me know if it is possible to do the same, if so please direct me to a related article.   Thanks in advance.   Regards, Hari R

anyone have suggestions on how to manage a single vault share for multiple Windchill systems on Windows?    we have PRODUCTION and two TEST systems in place. as more testing demands came up, we copied the vaults to the TEST systems, doubling and then tripling the disk space required for the vaults. ultimately we'd like to have a singe vault share for all three systems giving PRODUCTION read/write access and the TEST systems read along with their own unique "active" vault on a different share for testing purposes. these unique shares would get wiped and re-attached for a refresh.    i've looked at some older posts here, but didn't find anything conclusive. 

I am picking up an in-process project of configuring SSO with the software mentioned in the question, and as I dive in I wanted to put out a question to the user community here to see if anyone has implemented this within their environment, and if so, could provide any helpful details/information as I go forward.  Even if not the exact same software environment, but configuring SSO in general, that would be a significant help.Thanks in advance!

We have a System file that closes WQS [crashes] with the following error - "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Databases'.  Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and path name correctly."  Recovery was to revert to an earlier backup, but lost a lot of edit time and user is not concerned the problem could repeat. At the time they were adding reference designator information - which would be mostly text field updates.  Has anyone experienced this issue and determined a cause or fix?

Hello all. I hope all of you are great    Anyone of you know how to select the workflow for the Change Notice depending on the file type. For example I want to use a custom Change notice workflow for the CAD files and also that the change notice workflow for a document file (like a MS Word) use another workflow when the user hit the Create new Change notice option.” In summary: Different workflows for different files types when a Change Notice is created.   Thanks in advance.

I am trying to write an http POST request to create a Windchill Nonconformance (which is an object that is part of an add-on Windchill Module for Windchill Quality Management).  I am using the OData servlet.  In response to my post, Windchill rest services send back this response:   {"error": {"code": null,"message": "Changing the subject for an Affected Product is not allowed."}}   Does anyone know that this message means?   My html body is this: {"Name": "NC1701B","Description" : "upright","Context@odata.bind" : "Containers('OR:wt.inf.library.WTLibrary:4148327')","AffectedObjects": [{"ID": "OR:wt.part.WTPart:152929","Quantity": 25,"UnitType": {"Value": "EACH","Display": "Each"}}]}

Continuing to have issues with a Process Assembly. The model tree is straight forward, the Process Assy has a single object in the model tree (another assembly). That child assembly can publish with zero problems, however the Process assembly fails every time. Has anyone experienced the issue displayed by the log below: 2017-12-15 10:51:45 Successfully copied all files 2017-12-15 10:51:45 Sending $JOB$ D:\cadworker\cadworker1\w2i1j1520\_wvsjob.paj 2017-12-15 10:51:45 Time out disabled 2017-12-15 10:52:19 Reply from worker $ERROR$ Helper: Connection to worker has been closed.

Hi Everyone,I want to use existing Windchill objects for my workflow tasks. For example, please see below image..Here you can observe highlighted area Enter Review Details which navigates to respective object's page where default attributes are defined.Same way, I want to use them in my flow .Please guide me for this as I'm new to Customization. Also tell me how to create new objects like below through API.Thanks In Advance,Krishna Chaitanya

Hi,   I am practicing a basic custom at the Windchill help center.   It fails at the stage of verification using Jython.   Please let me know for some reason.   Thanks, Warm Regards, SeonHo Cha.

For particular workflow processes, it is hanging at the Set State Robot, and throwing the following error. I could not find any root cause for this issue. A nested transaction cannot be started when a rollback is in progress. The following is the rollback stacktrace. ROLLBACK: java.lang.Thread.getStackTraceImpl(Native Method) ROLLBACK: java.lang.Thread.getStackTrace(Thread.java:1042) ROLLBACK: wt.pom.TransactionManager.rollbackTransaction(TransactionManager.java:624) ROLLBACK: wt.pom.BasicTransactionMonitor.rollbackTransaction(BasicTransactionMonitor.java:77) ROLLBACK: wt.pom.PersistentObjectManager.rollbackTransaction(PersistentObjectManager.java:447) ROLLBACK: wt.pom.Transaction.rollback(Transaction.java:566) ROLLBACK: wt.workflow.engine.StandardWfEngineService.synchRobotToEvent(StandardWfEngineService.java:8959) ROLLBACK: wt.workflow.engine.StandardWfEngineService$SynchEventListener.notifyVetoableEvent(StandardWfEngineService.java:429) ROLLBACK: wt.events.StandardKeyedEventBranch.in

Under "Legacy" change there was a built in rule that prevented a revision from being the result of more than one Change Notice.  As soon as someone tried to add the revision to the results table of a second task, Windchill stopped them and threw up an alert telling them they could not do that.   That rule does not seem to be enforced under "Flexible" change.  I can have Rev A of the same Document be the result of any number of Change Notices.  That doesn't make sense in our company.   Does anyone know if there is a way to configure that rule in Flexible change?

Hi All,   Wanted to see which ways there would be to attack this... I have users that will get promotion requests with say 10 or more drawings... once the promotion request inevitably goes thru the rework process, my users cannot tell which drawings have been iterated, and need rechecking at a glance.  I was thinking perhaps there is a way to display this in a notification email?  Or a new tab on the promotion request page which says whether a drawing has a new iteration (True/false) since the last submission?   Thanks in advance for weighing in!

Working in a part structure which is not CAD-driven I'm able to edit the positions of parts in Creo View and commit to Windchill using the command "Save Part Location". A very handy command in many situations, how ever this commit will not create a new iteration in Windchill. In some cases you add parts / resources to your structure with the intention to add positition in a later stage but if you use MPMLink to populate mbom, occurrencers are copied with position and then no manual change of position is expected. Trying to change the position of a part in Windchill, parent is automatically checked out. I expect a consistent behaviour where I'm able to follow up on who did what and be able to reverse unintended changes.

When a file is checked into Windchill 11.0 m030, the wcadmin account ends up with a Submit task in the Task list. I can only Accept, Decline or Reassign these tasks. I want to delete them!   How do I delete them? How do I prevent new ones from appearing? What do I need to modify in my Windchill setup to eliminate them from being generated?
