Windchill

Hey,   I've created an attribute in windchill and given it a description. but when I look at the details page of a part with this attribute I can see the attribute itself,  but I can't see the description of this attribute.    Is there a way to show this description using a hover over function or an information button.   I'm curious where this description otherwise is used for.    

Hello all,   By default, all EPM documents are published via ESI to an ERP system.   My requirement is to publish to ERP/SAP only EPMDocuments which contain 2D Drawings. 3D drawings must not be published. The differentiation can be made via the OOTB attribute doctype. Customizing the ESIResponseMetaInfo.xml for separately for Drawings/Not Drawings is not possible. I did not found any other OOTB way to configure a filter based on drawing types. I think this requirement can be done only with customized code. Anyone of you had a similar problem to solve? Can you give me some hint where to start customization? Via an opened PTC case (https://www.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/case.jsp?n=13841117) I found out the possibly the ESIEPMDocumentRenderer class must be customized.   Thanks,

Hi i'm seonho   We are re-reading the Windchill Installation Guide.Is SQL Server included in PSI?Or should I install it separately?   thanks

Hello all. Please help. I have an attribute indicating level of required approval rigour on documents and would like to route based on the value of the attribute. I'm not a java guru but, I have used an expression robot with the code below. I  seem to be falling foul of the variable 'attrValues' and cannot understand why. What I want to do is check the value of the IBA  'DocumentLevel' for all documents (there could be more than one) in the promotion notice and  pass each individual value to a variable DocLevel.  After that, a conditional task queries DocLevel to route accordingly based on the highest level.    Thanks in advance   Expression Code below: :- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ //Use promotion request as basis.wt.maturity.PromotionNotice promotionNotice = (wt.maturity.PromotionNotice) primaryBusinessObject;System.out.println("promotionNotice: " + promotionNotice); //Get all objects on the promotion request. wt.fc.WTObject obj

Group,I am looking for a collaborative discussion & maybe "best practice sharing".I have been constantly working on Change Management workflow devleopment in my company for 2.5 years. I thought I made these workflow instructions look pretty slick with variables showing up here and there...HTML formatting...etc, etc. Finally a few months ago...I think I went overboard. I reached the 1333-character limit in the workflow Instructions, as outlined by CS61259. My rendered workflow assignment is shown in the screenshot below. Perhaps too much detail in the instructions that should be offloaded to separate training document?What I'm looking for in this discussion are use cases of workflow assignment modifications & customizations. What are they? What have you done to render good-quality instructions for the users read & understand, and how?Just looking to share experiences for some users to pick up on that other users haven't thought of before. And along the way, maybe some of you

Hey,   Terrible Windchill Admin and Creo user here. I currently can't get my laptop to pull the floating Creo license we have. I get the following error, "License request failed for feature... Requesting PROE_EssentialsMHome... portnumber@mylaptop (-15) Cannot connect to license server system". The port number is correct, but it wants to point to my laptop instead of the network computer where the license server is installed. I haven't changed anything on the server. I recently went through a Windows update on the laptop. I've tried using the "reconfigure" shortcut in ...\FLEXnet Admin License Server\bin\ and when I enter the correct portnumber@servername it says the "status" is available. I hit "Finish" but it changes nothing in regards to where it's trying to pull the license from. When I open the reconfigure tool again, nothing has changed (i.e. portnumber@laptop). I can ping the server from my laptop and my laptop from the server. I have the right IP and computer name in my ho

With the new AIAG/VDA combined guideline there is now the neccesity of calculating the priority with a list of combined cobinations of Severity Occurrence and Detection, instead of the RPN or the Special Characteristic (Risk Matrix). Together with the risk matrix it is possible to calculate the risk priority with calculations:   This calculation will give a certain predivined priority for Severity 7 combined with an occurrence higher than 3: IfThenElse(([FmeaTable.Occurrence]==0),BLANK,([FmeaTable.FmeaValue2]==7?[FmeaTable.Occurrence]>3?1:BLANK:DO_NOTHING))   I would like to add also a certain range of the Detection rating in this formula. Does anyone has any suggestions?   Thanks in advance

Hi I'm SeonHo   I have a question about Thingworx Navigate.     First, how do you navigate through mobile?   Second, Mashup's Creo View through the part structure view is not displayed. PTC Creo View Control is in use in the Manage Add-ons section of Internet Options. View & Measure 3D is displayed. However, you can not see the Creo View on the left side of the Part Structure view.     my Thingworx 7.3 and navigate 1.4 Tomcat 8.0.46 IE11 Windchill 11.0 M020 and that installed VMware Thank you for your help.

Hi i'm SeonHo     I installed the Navigate. However, an error occurs when accessing Thingworx. The DNS address of the server is not found. It can be used by registering server DNS in hosts file. I added address = "0.0.0.0" to tomcat's server.xml to access Thingworx from outside and added the port on which tomcat is running to the inbound rule. Thingworx can be accessed in the same way as above, but is not accessible after Navigate installation. What should I do? Do I have to configure the reverse proxy to allow external access to Windchill to view Navigate from outside? Should Thingworx Navigate be installed on another Windchill server with a reverse proxy configured?     thank

Just got answer on case C13866841.  Indexing of Creo Drawings has been available and functional for many releases - but does not work per this case on 11.0 M030 CPS01.  Am told that it is fixed in CPS04, not yet released. We installed and configued Solr as documented, and then modified the DRW type in dataformats as documented, then tested using our test drawing with many searchable words - didn't return any results. So - Just asking if anyone else has experience using full text search with Creo Drawings over time and now any experience with this in 11.0.  PTC evidently made major changes in the approach for indexing and Solr install with 11.0 and didn't address drawings somehow. thanks in advance

Hello,   I have a question here related to a products Sizing and the 'Style Size Run Range(s)'  section in the Product Details page and seasonal Line Sheet.    Can you advise OOTB functionality for how to get the 'Size Range' values to flow in FlexPLM to the 'Style Size Run Range(s)' fields?  So for example if a product has a size range of XXS-XXL, what all criteria/requirements does a style need to meet in order for that size range of 'XXS-XXL' to flow to the 'Style Size Run Range(s)' fields?   Does a product only need to contain a 'Product Size Definition', or is there other criteria needed as well such as a 'Measurement set', 'Grade Rule' template, etc.   Please let me know if you need aadditional context or information related to this.   Thanks,Matt

Hi, We are able to login to Thingworx with the wcadmin password,but getting 403 Error when validating in ptc-windchill-integration-connector the connection between thingworx 8.0.1 and Windchill 11.0 M030.

I am looking to have a conditon for my references documents by restricting the referenced document to only a particular lifecycle state

Can you rename the File Name of a document in PDMLink like you can for CAD files?  Not through accessing the database.  I want it through the UI of PDMLink.

What are the benefits  and limitation of using document instead of Part in eBOM and linking the document as described by to a parent assembly ?  

Hi All,   Is it possible to create a view in the Site->View Administration and export it so that you can import it to another system later?   Regards, Alex

Hi I'm SeonHo   The current situation is that I installed the navigate extension and redirected it to navagate when I signed into Composer with Windchill's account However, if you log in with your Windchill account, you will see "Unable to invoke service CollectApps on AppCollectionsConsolidator: You do not have permission to navigate apps.Please contact the Administrator". However, as an Administrator's account (It changed the password to wcadmin after configuring the navigate.) I tried to modify AppCollectionConsolidator after logging in and it was not possible to fix it.(it was only view possible) How do I view data through navigate with a Windchill account? How do I set it up?     thank

Hi,   We installed thingworx of 8.0.1 and thingworx navigate of 1.5.0. We installed and configured integration runtime to connect to Windchill. But once in everyday it is terminating automatically.

I created a subtype from Document, e.g. Document | subtype1 Now, when I go to my folder and do Actions, New Document, how do I associate the document with my new type "subtype1"?

Hi, could someone confirm the inability to display an integer attribute value without a comma? I never expected this to be a limitation, but found the following ideas to support it. Values without comma Hide comma for an Integer attribute on the UI Integer Attribute Display If there is no way to remove the commas, does anyone have a good way to validate a string attribute to ensure it only contains integers? I'm guessing a Regular Expression constraint on the attribute?   Would be nice to use the Integer attrbute, so please vote up the ideas if you agree.
