Windchill

Hi,   I using Windchill PDMLink M030. And I want to get previous version of wt.part.WTPart via RESTFul API. I can get previous version part by following "$filter"      <$filter=name eq '004' and iterationIdentifier eq '1' and versionIdentifier eq 'A'> But I want to get previous version parts without iterationIdentifier criteria. It likes Info*Engine method "Search-Objects" with VERSION parameter specified 'ALL.'   Does anyone know？？？   

HI,   I want to get type hierarchy both ANCESTORS and DESCENDANTS using Windchill REST API . I using Windchill Info*Engine's method 'Query-TypeHierarchy' for our function, and I will replace this function to using Windchill REST API. So, I hope Windchill REST API  has same function as this method.   Best Regards, Haruka.

Hello everyone,  I need to wite a java custom class that retrieve the structure of an assembly (.asm) file. The class must be execute in a listener after the CheckIn event. I have found a call to Swagger REST Api (structure/objects descendants) and it is working on a standalone java class.   I wondering if it is possible to call a REST Api inside a java custom class executed at the CheckIn event. If it is not possible what JAVA API I shoul use for a Windchill 11.0 M030 ?   Thankyou

I came across and issue that I think should be shared.  I will confirm this and have opened a ticket on this.  I am loading Parts, Docs, Links and content. The order I had was load Parts, Load doc objects (empty), load links (part to doc and doc to doc) then load content.  Some loaders create iterations, others do not.  When the content loader ran (just another BeginWTDocument but now with content), iterates document to add content but does not carry forward the links to that document.   Here is an example: Let's say Part A is described by doc B and Doc C references doc B.  On the related objects page would see links to those other objects.  When the loader for the content runs, the document is iterate and those links are gone. If you go to previous iteration, they are there.  If you go to Part A or Doc C, the links are gone (since no longer latest).  However, if instead of loading content via XML I checked the document out and uploaded cont

Does still exist the "undo" command in Windchill like in the old Pro/Intralink?Because when I go in the "Events manager", in the slide menu on the top of workspace, only few events have the button "apply events" (in my case only the events "add") and anyway if I push one of those nothing happens in the WS.Perhaps that command works only in a given situation?At work I have version 10.1.Regards

Hi all, I need help regarding case 14107786.   It appears the findObjects REST API uses the findObjects() method from com/ptc/windchill/connected/plm/webservice/ObjectWebService and there is no possibility to filter on the subtype.   Are you aware of any valid workaround here?

I am exploring SWAGGER Rest API. I am able to pull the part structure for latest revision using  /structure/objects/{objectId}/descendants rest call. However, I would like to pull Part structure for previous revisions as well. I have checked parameters used in this API as well. But I don't see any exact parameter where we can pass the revision number and get the part structure.  Does anybody has an idea idea what exactly we need to pass as a parameter to get the Part Structure for previous revision(s)?   Thank you in advance!   Thanks, Rizvan    

Hi together, I am using the PTC domain to gather a part part list from my Windchill. This works fine so far, but I was wondering why I just see the parts from my General Libraries, but not from my General Products? See 1.png   https://windchilldomain//Windchill/servlet/odata/v3/ProdMgmt    

Greetings, I'm having a lot of problems with windchill 11 integration for Inventor 2017: The detail level All Content Centre suppressed is not working anymore and I cannot fill the windchill part list with correct units of measure as like lenght, retrived from document settings of Inventor file.   Can anyone help me?   Thank You

Hi How I can create new domain in path WT_HOME/codebase/rest/ptc/domain. 

Hi All,OOTB Windchill change management, we started from problem report and the process got completed after Change notice completion.1. Create Problem Report - add affected objects if any.2. Analyze PR.3. Create Change Request4. Analyze Change Request.5. Create Change Notice.6. Complete the Task - here normally designer will do some modifications/changes on resulting objects to eliminate the issue on affected objects.7. Reviewer reviews the changes.8. Audit change notice.. if approved here, all process completed with appropriate changes.If we add additional routing for Rejecting Change Notice at Audit task, it will simply reject the Change notice as well  respective CR and PR, but the changes which are done during the change task will be remains in system.How we can revert back these changes which are present on affected objects in case of Change Notice was rejected after change task was completed in system ?Is any way to tackle this ? Any idea.Regards,Vivek

Wondering how I prevent components inside suppressed sub-assemblies from appearing on the CAD structure, single level report.  The multilevel report is correctly filtering out the suppressed components but the single level report is not.   I've messed around with the 'manage structure views', and I do have a condition for 'suppressed not equal to true', but that seems to apply to each component directly.  It does not filter out components used by suppressed sub-assemblies.  Any idea how I get a flat, single level report that does not include items used by suppressed sub-assemblies?  Thanks.  

I know that there are other topics on this over the years but I have some specific questions that I don't know if I've seen them explained fully and all in one place.  We connect to our corporate AD for users and it's read-only.  When a user leaves the company, they are removed from the AD group that Windchill points to and they are left in a Disconnected state.  We don't have access to that process.  We just end up with a Disconnected user.     Given that setup: If you don't delete Windchill Disconnected users, what do you do with them?  We think that we would need to create a new WindchillDS user that we would reconnect them to.  We would have to alter the display of the name to indicate that it's inactive.  We would also remove them from all groups which is good enough for us as we don't put individuals into profiles.  How has your process worked for you?  How is your process different?  What challenges do you have wi

Within our organization we are migrating everything into a new domain. We use an automated tool but that does not support Windchill. I have one server Running Windchill on Apache, I did some checks and find loads of files with entries to the “current” name and domain. Is there an easy way to get Windchill working after the migration or do I need to update all files manually?Tips and advice are more than welcome

i have a wtpart structure no associated with the cad structure when i done the auto associate at the ckin   the object is added to the wt part structure   wich is the correct structure

we work for main Automotive Industries, and all they have own procedure to approve supplier drawings.Now due to that we are supplier, we need to:1. approve internally to "release status", before send the drawing to Customer.2. The customer, (He want collaborate without its own PDM, or its pdm is different from our) control the drawing, and "watermark" a .tiff (Image) as approved, and send us the document back.3. now how we can manage this phase ?The solutions are probably different, but I list some:A. I send the pdf (Previously internal approved by ext.tools E-Sing) leave the drawing (i.e AB.1) "inwork"(And checked-out) (Very unsafe strategy), after the Customer send, the .tiff watermarked back, so I will put the stamp on my own, I check-In, and create an Release to SAP approval process.As you understand the "A" solution is not easy, is not safe.B. send the pdf (Previously internal approved by ext.tools E-Sing) and I create a "Release to SAP approval" process I do (i.e AB.1) "Release"(

I have done this before, but it was years ago and I want to get some assurance that my process thought is correct.   We are experiencing boot issues on the Oracle server for Windchill. Oracle itself is located on the e: drive, so the boot issues of the C: drive should not effect Oracle, other than the server not starting.   I have a different server that is running Windows Server2012r1 instead of the current Server 2008r2. I do not think that will make a difference. If I install Oracle on the new server, run the windchill configuration setup, drop user, create user, then import an Oracle database export and run xconfmanager to change the db server name, everything should come back up. No Rehost utility needed for this type of change since WIndchill itself is staying on its original machine.   The 2 settings in db.properties to change would be: wt.pom.jdbc.host wt.pom.servicename   If I have an empty database install from the Windchill setup, do I need to drop user/c

All, I'm interested in giving a few super users some Admin capabilities.  I'm not completely sure how many permissions I want to give them.  I'm interested in the method someone might take to create such a user (I'm calling one Engineering Admin).  I don't think I want to add them to the Administrator's group.  I'm thinking a special group and use Profiles to achieve the permission set for them.   What do all of you think?James Windchill 11.0

Hi All,   Our client would like that when creating a New View Version for a WT Part in revision A for example, the new view version has revision B, instead of A as it is OOTB.    Any ideas here?   Thank you.

As of now date and time are displayed and the attribute data type is date and time, Here I need to separate date as one column and time as 2nd column. Is this possible?

This tool has been available on the PTC/USER forum for some time but the installation package didn't make it during the migration of data to the PTC Community.The discussion from the PTC/USER forum was included in the migration and can be found here: Windchill Cache Recovery Tool.Ron Thellen

Hi All,I am trying to implement Auto Suggest picker (SuggestTextBox) on WTDocument/WTPart creation wizard in Windchill 10.1. Does anybody have done this before?Can anyone please help me on this?Appreciate your help.Regards,Shirish

I have created a new sub-folder under the document library. I have created a new sub-type for a new document type. When I create my first document in Windchill using that data sub-type in my new folder, I get a flash bar that says document created, but nothing appears in the folder. If I change my view from All to Owner, the document shows in the folder. Change it Modified by and it still shows, but go back to All and it goes away. Should not the All view type show everything with no restrictions?   I am on Windchill 11.0 m030 and have added new sub-types in prior versions with no problems. Has anyone else seen this issue and/or have any suggestions or work-arounds?  

Hi Guys,Could any please explain me what is the difference between a PRODUCT and a LIBRARY in Windchill PDMLink?Thanks in advance.RegardsRajeshkumar Balaganesan
