Windchill

During a CPS update that I am doing on my test Windchill server, there were three custom sequences, that I had for document types that I created, deleted.  How important is it to recreate these?  When I create new documents, they seem to get the correct numbering.   I am going from 11.0m030 cps01 to 11.0m030 cps11.

Just updated a test server to PDMLink M030 CPS11 and the separate Solr server to the same release. Now getting a 501 Session Expired error. PTC wants me to add the solr admin I created to the Windchill participants. We normally use the wcadmin for the Solr Effctive UID. Anyone else at the release or has seen this error? And do you add the solr admin to your Windchill participants? Thanks in advance!

Hi there,   here is my need: - first I want to automaticaly publish CAD documents once they move to the Prototype State. I also have to create a step file. I had a publish Rules for that and it works fine. - then, I need to post-publish the representation "on demand" for Creo Illustrate. I have a standard publish rules for that, who works when this file is alone.    now I want to merge the 2 rules files. All my tries were not good: or I can create only one representation of the 2 rules, or I publish everything together. I guess is a syntax issue, but I don't understand. does someone have already done this exercise?    thanks in advance Ron

Specifically, I want to create a shortcut that resides outside of PDMLink such that then when a user clicks on it it will:Open WC, and request to log in if not already logged in (I know how to do this aspect to any location in Windchill)Start a Change Notice (or a document)I am primarily asking for Change Notices, however, if it can also be done for initiating new documents, or other types of objects in in PDMLink (Such as Change Requests, etc) that would be useful to.Does anyone know how to create this shortcut in Windchill?Thanks!

I have a scenario in my organisation. Someone has created a CAD document with a P/N 1234567.prt. Now same part number needs to be used by other user and this new user is trying to upload the same 1234567.prt from his work-space. It shows a conflict with following message, 1234567.prt, is not unique. Generally, we receive this message when we have P/N with same name exists on common-space,but when i searched this part number, I cannot see it. This means that this P/N exists in uploaded state to some user's work-space. I am not sure who that user is.  I s there a way at any level we can identify this user or search these parts?

We have an issue with the Desktop Integration functionality in Windchill 11.0 M020-CPS08. Some users are no longer able to upload Word documents using the Windchill Desktop Integration functionality. There are no errors in the log files when upload fails.   When downloading a file, the following pop-up message appears: Do you want to overwrite local copy (version 001.2) with server copy (version 001.4).  Note that the version of the downloaded copy remains 001.2, even if the content is updated to version 001.4.   When starting the upload process of this file, a new pop-up appears: Do you want to overwrite server copy (version 001.4) with local copy (version 001.2). Independent of the answer, the upload fails.    When local copy is deleted before starting the download process, the error message remains during upload.  As soon as the document is downloaded, the value of the attribute version becomes 001.2   This behavior is not linked to
