Windchill

I'm trying to set up Project in Windchill for my engineering group.  The one thing that I need with this is the ability for the Guest Role to see the projects that they are guest in when they go to All Projects and change to Active Projects or one that I create.  How do I accomplish this without making them part of the Viewer Role and making them join the project?   I am on Windchill 11.2.1.0, but this should be doable no matter what version.

There is a attribute defined on a document type, the value is carried over by new iteration or revision once it was created out of box. How can I custom to not carry over the value but reset to empty every time new revision? Eg Audit Type field was set "Initial" at A.1, when Revise to B.1, the value was reset to empty.

Hello All,   I recently attended an interview where the interviewer asked the difference between   i) Change Notice and Change Order. ii) Change Activity and Change Task.   I have always thought that the both terms represent the same object. Please shed some light on the confusion.   Thanks in advance for the response.   Regards, Hari R

Hello, When we are trying to use the Save-As Function in our Windchill for the Windchill Part, Model and Drawing we get an Error Message that the Object Type is invalid. I didn't find any preference which prevents the copying of CAD-Models/Drawings. Is it possible that the Save-As Function is not working with Data from Direct Modeling? Thank you in Advance! Best Regards

Hello. Please tell me: why is it so long to publish on the server? There are objects that are published for 1 hour. At the same time, the server is loaded by 10 percent.

Hello Community,   I am working on some coding to Link an EPMDocument to a WTPart, and then build the WTPart structure. I've got the association portion working but am having difficulty with the build task. I found this in the Windchill API to build structures:BuildHelper.service.buildTarget(WTCollection alwaysBuild, WTCollection buildIfNotAlreadyBuilt, BuildResolverDelegate[] buildResolverDelegate, ConfigSpec configSpec)   I feed this a collection containing my working copy of the WTPart, and it appears to run without issue.  It returns a WTValuedMap, which I am not familiar with.  My question is there any I need to do with the WTValued Map to update the working copy of my WTPart object prior to service.checkin?  Or has anyone had any success with using the BuildHelper.service ?   Snippet:\\Checkout OBJ_prt \\create WRK_Prt = workingcopyof (OBJ_Prt) \\Create links to EMPDoc \\add WRK_prt to WTCollection alwaysBuild.  No buildresolverDelegate, no conf

Hi, when i try to set the license in Creo setup, one server of the Triad results "not reachable". The firewall is off, the Antivirus is uninstalled, the Ping works, all the services are on. I tried a restart but nothing changes. See the attachment. Help?

Hello,Anyone out there have made a DHF using WTParts? Any suggestions would be great.Many thanks,Mike

Hi Everyone, For those of you that are using multiple states for your business objects (CAD, Part, Doc) I am wondering if you are willing to share what those states are and what they mean from a business point-of-view.  There is some internal debate at my company what the difference should be between Engineering Released and Released (I won't give the details here).  I am just wondering what states are used at other companies and what they communicate to the business about the maturity of the object.   Thanks, Patrick Williams

Do we have any feature in the windchill workspace, to select all the generic and instance part/assembly of a single component together? 

Hi, We want to create an (Excel) application that downloads the viewables from Windchill in a batching way. All users are non-Windchill users. What kind of license(s) is required. Is it allowed that e.g. 20 Excel users download from Windchill via one license or does everyone needs his own license ?

We are about to receive some content for which I'd like to re-use our existing workflow templates. The content is the same, but needs different priority. We are already using the existing workflow priorities.   When viewing the task table, I'd like to be able to differentiate this new content. How can I achieve this? - Can I create more priority items, 6, 7, 8 etc - I'm not able to add, e.g. Process Name in the Task Table. If we initiate a wf and give it a unique name, we could identify it in the task table. But it doesn't allow me to add Process object type in the Table view for tasks. - I don't want to have to recreate my wf module with a bunch of different names. Unless that's my only option.   Any suggestions out there?

Hi, i've installed Drafting 20 but every time I open it, it gives me back this message "C:\ProgramCAD\pDD_20\cdm\Enhancements.pe4\x64\Al Tools.dll wrong type". Then it works but our company customization fails to load. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall, to delete all the regedit keys, to copy the dll from another PC where this error does not appear. But nothing...   Can anyone help me?

Hi, I am a beginner who can write Java and C ++ code but don't know how to apply development in PDMLink. PDMLink OOTB does not allow any additional information to be entered when proceeding with a revision.   If you have a development case that allows you to enter additional information when making revisions or an example where you can add editable properties to EPMDocuments without check out, please share it.   If I have to develop, please tell me what part of Customization Guide can help.   Thanks, Warm Regards, SeonHo Cha    

I have a Creo drawing in Windchill.  It consists of three parts, a (.drw, .frm and .prt) files. I have a change request that covers all three related objects. When I try to check out any of the files I'm presented with a series of options on a pop up screen.  I've tried what I think are the appropriate options but at no point does the file get checked out.  Is there a simple tutorial about that shows how to check out and edit a Creo drawing from Windchill. My mech.eng. has moved on and I'm trying to cover some of his work while the search is on for his replacement. Any help would be massively appreciated.

We are setting up an Autocad CADWorker for the first time and trying to figure out the license strategy. It seems Autodesk wants a named-user for the Autocad license. I am wondering what other businesses are doing to address this?

Hi,   I am assisting with a rehost but unsure how the "vault" part works. Struggling to completely understand what the guide is describing.   After the actual Vault folder has been copied and moved to the new location, how do I point the new Windchill setup to the copied Vault folder?   Not sure what all the sub-folders are.     Appreciate the assistance.   Thank you
