Windchill

We have a number of projects going on and in general I create new projects from a template that meets most of the criteria. I recently had a request to just duplicate existing projects so I thought "I can use "save as new project" to save myself some time". Everything worked well.... except that the newly created projects don't send out invitation emails and the users I did add to the projects can't access them at all.  Is there a way around this or is it possible to turn something on to fix it? 

I'm having trouble with a workflow where a certain section runs the first time through but won't run on subsequent runs.  I've tried setting 'Rework' link as loop link but it's not making any difference.  How do I get the two 'Start' links (in the red box) to fire every time time the 'Design Check' activity is (re-)executed?  Thanks.

Hi,   How can I replace Susbtitute / Alternate Part using API? Which is the Windchill Task or Java API for it.?

Hi guys,   I'm looking for a JAVA API that is capable to replace a part inside a structure with it's alternate or substitute. It would be great if someone could also provide sample code for it.   The longer story would be the following: We subscribed to an event, that fires when a new Module Variant was created.We loop throw the new Module Variant’s structure and based on some attributes and choices we identify three Object References:• parent: the part which uses the “original child” that should be replaced by the “replacement child”• original child: the part that should be replaced• replacement child: the part which should be used as a replacement (this part is alternate and substitute for the “original child” part)We thought that we will use the function called WTPartHelper.service.replacePartAssemblies(parent, originalChild, replacementChild) which should do the job, but unfortunately it makes no changes in the structure, and doesn’t return error messages, or ex

Hello all,   i have run successfully the code in the case bellow for a Document. https://community.ptc.com/t5/Windchill/Conditional-routing-based-on-Document-attributes/m-p/189278#M22601   When applying the same code for a different object type, Dynamic Document, it does not record in the variable of the workflow the value of the attribute. I have tried the following:   try {wt.epm.EPMDocument doc =  (wt.epm.EPMDocument) primaryBusinessObject;   //get the attributes of the document.wt.iba.value.IBAHolder holder = wt.iba.value.service.IBAValueHelper.service.refreshAttributeContainerWithoutConstraints(doc);wt.iba.value.DefaultAttributeContainer ac = (wt.iba.value.DefaultAttributeContainer) holder.getAttributeContainer();if (ac != null) {wt.iba.value.litevalue.AbstractValueView[] avalues = ac.getAttributeValues();for (int i=0;i<avalues.length;i++) {    wt.iba.value.litevalue.AbstractValueView val = avalues[i];    System.out.println

Hi, I am facing a unique issue with my windchill and creo. I have the version of Creo as 2.0 Parametric, M230, and have windchill version 10.0. i have recently installed the creo software in my new laptop, having RAID 0 configuration. I need to connect to the windchill via a VPN which I was using in my old computer, the version of VPN and configuration is same as old in new. Now the problem what I am facing is, when I tried to open some file, either drawing, part or assembly, it take longer than usual time and then say error,"Part can not retrieve".  I have tried many options, like clearing the catch, clearing the work space, then try to add the part and drawing in the work space and then try to open it. what happens in this case is the part is getting added to workspace but still can not open.  I have checked and compared the version and configuration of windchill and creo in both old and new, every thing is same. But still I am not able to get the things done.  When I

Hello team, i am creating .dxf file and i want to checkin file in windchill, how to do that?

We have a procedure that asks users to conduct a keyword search (we use indexing) for the document they are going to change. They can simply export the search but they need to modify it to add the text string (number) that they searched for. Anyone know how to create a report that would list the results and the number searched for and when it was conducted?  

Hi All,   Could you please tell me if Windchill Information Modeler 11.0 is available and where it can be downloaded?Also, is there any alternative tool, we can use beside the Information modeler, to understand quickly Windchill API?Thanks, Eddie

Hi,   I need to send a Soap message from Windchill to a thirdpary application, but also include a binary content in the message, in my case a CAD file.   I have found the following Info*Engine Webject that I believe I can use to send teh actual soap message:   Call-SOAPService   But has anyone tried to attach binary content to the webject? The content stream itself I can get from the webject:  Get-ContentItems I have also found examples of how to get the File Stream onto an email, ./prog_examples/adapter/windchill/tasks/infoengine/examples/adapter/windchill/contentItem/Email.xml   but I cannot find out how to add it as binary content into the SOAP message.   Does anyone have any idea? /Gustav

Is there any way to move the location of where the username displays in the banner?  We recently upgraded from 10.1 to 11.0.  The company logo I use is too wide in the new version.  

This is the only statement I can find, and it doesn't seem like it's talking about the same thing.  None of the Matrices mention a Windows version.  This would be for publishing Creo 4.0+ and SolidWorks 2017+ with Windchill 11.0.  The current setup is using Creo Adapters 4.0 on a Windows 7 machine.   Seems odd that the MCAD Adapters Install Guide doesn't show which versions of Windows are supported for a separate publishing system.

Hi,   Has anyone used the &pageSize=n URL modifier successfully on the Occurrences table as described in CS Article 281046? (https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS281046) I am trying it in Windchill 10.1 and 11.1 and never getting more than 500 items exported from the Occurrences table when it has ~750 items. PTC says its supposed to work, but I cannot find the magic that makes it work.   -Scott

Hey all, Sometime last quarter, my Windchill (11.0 M030-CPS02) started showing dates in the European format of dd/mm/yy.  This is very confusing as 03/07/2018 led us to believe a file was Checked-In on March 7th, but it wasn't.  It was July 3rd. What could have changed that ('cause I know I didn't and I'm the only Bus-Admin here)?   More importantly, how do I change it back!!  I could've sworn it was never like this before!   please help...

A few of my co-workers keep getting the error "IgnoreUnresolvedRole Notification" message email whenever they receive a task that needs to be completed or a review that needs to be done. Does anyone know how I would be able to fix this problem?

Hello,   I am attempting to generate a bill of material directly from WindChill using parameters added to the CREO models in my assembly. Some parameter examples are Title, Part_number, Description, Supplier, etc. For some reason when I attempt to generate a multilevel report from WindChill, I can add columns for the title and part number parameters, but not for the description and supplier parameters. The latter parameters are not listed as column options. I'm not sure why this is the case; as far as I can tell, each parameter is defined identically.   Has anyone run into this before? Is there a workaround?   Thanks, Matt
