We are currently using PTC Windchill+ 13.0.2.12 and are working extensively with the Configurable Module functionality.During the configuration process, we noticed that it would be beneficial for users entering configuration data to have the ability to define a default design choice for a design option, representing a standard or most common configuration.By default design choice, I mean a design choice that is initially selected when the configuration is created, without requiring any prior user input. The user would still be able to modify the selection as needed.This capability could provide several benefits:Faster configuration entry for standard products. Improved data quality and consistency. Reduced verification effort, since users would only need to review and modify deviations from the standard configuration. Improved user experience by clearly indicating the preferred or recommended initial selection.For example:Design Option: ColorDesign Choices:Blue Yellow (Default) RedIn t

Is it possible to use Microsoft Co-pilot or Claude for development of customization for Windchill application?  

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.4 Windchill Workflow Issue: I created a global workflow process variable and assigned the current task activity comments to it. The value is displayed correctly in the current activity using System.out.println(). However, when I access the same process variable in the next workflow activity, it returns null instead of the expected comment.

Hello All,Our requirement is to restrict the participant selection on the Select Participants page in promotion request so that:The Reviewer column only allows members of the Reviewer role. The Reviewer_2 column only allows members of the Reviewer_2 role. The Approver column only allows members of the Approver role.Currently, the participant list is showing all available roles in context team instead of restricting the selection to the members of the corresponding role.Windchill version 13.0

Hi Experts,How many of you actually use Windchill DTI for MS Office? Is it worth to use it or is it an underrated feature ?What are the Pros/ Cons? Is PTC actively considering it as their obligation to maintain that / enhance it?Appreciate your responses. Best regardsHari

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.0 and Datecode with CPS M030 I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 11.0 and Datecode with CPS M030 Title: SolidWorks Integration Issues: Workspace Directory Access Failure and WGM Version Mismatch Description: We are using Windchill Workgroup Manager (WGM) 11.0 M030 with Windchill 11.0 M030 on a Windows 10 client, integrating with SolidWorks 2016 SP5 x64. We are encountering two problems: When launching SolidWorks, WGM starts automatically in the background and fails with the error: "Failed to set the workspace local directory" . The log indicates that the folder C:\PTC\WFS\Workspace cannot be accessed。 “maybe it is locked by the PTC WFS Controller service. Despite the folder being locked by the service, WGM is unable to use it properly, causing the initialization to fail." Although we installed WGM 11.0 M030, the SolidWorks add-in shows its version as "PTC Windchill Workgroup Manager 11.0 M010". Here are the errors that I faced 2026-07-30T08:2

Was wondering if someone has used a newer version of OpenDJ instead of the older PTC supplied 11.2 version. I downloaded the newer OpenDJ, but am unsure of how to set it up to mirror the 11.2 version. Many thanks in advance!

Hello, I plan to update Creo 7.0.0.0 to Creo 13.4.0.0 Will it work with my current Windchill 12.0.2.7?

is there a way to control the display of version in “Revise” or “collect” window?   

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.1 and Datecode with CPS 12.1.2.18 Referencing to case: CS98538 I need a similar function in NX like for Catia or Creo to use Design Context functionallity. I know, that this is not supported for NX, but i need a way to load filterd CAD Data to NX. Filter used mostly from a Spatial Query. I would be fine when there is a workaround. And maybe you can provide the info when Design Context is available for NX as well Here are the errors that I faced Does not work for NX

Hi so I'm working on this Thing that takes information from windchill, and puts it though a calculator to return times for the part. but is there anyway to use an O data connector or any feature to get a representation from windchill, there is the WRS partGetRepresentation but I do not know how to implement that into a service that can be called with a part Id or number, I currently am using getJSON to get the urls but that needs credentials in the code but is there a way to avoid having to log in each time by doing it another method that doesnt need to login.var url = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/Windchill/servlet/odata/v7/ProdMgmt/Parts('" + input + "')/Representations"; var result; try { var response = Resources["ContentLoaderFunctions"].GetJSON({ url: url, username: user, password: pass, timeout: 10 }); if (response.value && response.value.length > 0) { var rep = response.value[0]; // Check for valid 2D/3D thumbnail URLs if (rep.TwoDThumbnailURL && rep.Tw

Per the post, do you know if its possible to retrieve the thumbnail image via the Odata REST API? Thank you in advance!

Windchill PLM AI - is it using MCP (Model Context Protocol) ? if not what is behind the AI architecture used for PLM (on premises solutions)

We are currently using Windchill 13.0.2.12.Within the Configurable Module, both the Option Pool and Option Set display Design Options and Design Choices with their IDs prefixed to the name, for example:[ID] Option Name      [ID] Choice Name  (Note that Groups do not appear to follow this convention.)Because the IDs are displayed first, Design Options and Design Choices are effectively sorted by ID (either ascending or descending, depending on the selected sorting preference). In our case, this is not the desired behavior, as we would prefer to control the display order based on logical grouping, process flow, or another business-specific sequence.Is there a way to:Suppress the display of IDs for Design Options and Design Choices so that sorting is based solely on the name? Define a custom display order for Groups, Design Options, and Design Choices? Manually reorder Groups, Design Options, and Design Choices within an Option Pool or Option Set?Any guidance, configuration options, custo

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: HTML table format issue for data utility after upgrading to Windchill 13Description: Hi all I have a custom data utility for an attribute that returns a HTML snippet to create a table to be displayed in the Details page of Windchill 12. Recently we upgraded to Windchill 13 and since then the table has formatting issues. To be specific each cell has their own width whereas in Windchill 12 it was same as the cell in header row and in addition rows aren't separated but lined up one cell after the another. Anybody aware of this issue or faced anything similar?
