Windchill

Hi, I'm trying to upload a new drawing for existing part which is already in windchill. Here is there any way to get the initial drawing revision same as WTPart while uploading drawing for first time..

We recently turned on ModelCheck Gatekeeper in Windchill.  Got all the settings correctly entered in .mch , .mcs and config_init.mc .  For most part it is working fine, but we are running into some sporadic files that will not check-in from Creo3.  Even if the parameter MC_Verified is set to yes, it will not check-in.  We have to modify the file again, then either run modelcheck interactive, regen, save and then will check-in.     Also alot of family tables are problematic, save and verifying the table will change the MC_Verified to yes, but will not check-in, have to bring up each instance, modify, then either run modelcheck interactive, regen, save and then will family table will check-in.   Is anyone experiencing this, any solution?    

We currently have our RMA and warranty tear down information in our CRM system.  We are planning to take this out of this system and move it to something else.  I have asked about iWarranty and was told it is a dead product.  Is anyone out there using Windchill to do tear down tracking?

We recently updated to Windchill 11.0 M030 CPS01 and since the update we are no longer seeing data uploaded to the Windchill Performance Advisor website.  I do have a support case open but so far they haven't been able to figure out why.  Is anyone else having this issue?  Is there anyone out there running this same version and CPS of Windchill that is successfully uploading data?   There has definitely been a structural change under the hood.  The "create" and "sent" folders are no longer being used.  Everything is now happening in the "PAA" folder.  None of the items in the red box have been uploaded (as far as I can tell.)  WPA shows nothing after 7/21/2017.  

hey,i'm testing Desktop integration, but we've got a lot of excel documents who automatically create a PDF document using a Macro(in the same or a sub-folder).Now when i put the excel document in windchill and open it it works fine, i can check it out edit it and even use the macro to generate the PDF document.But the PDF document (and sub-folder) arn't uploaded to windchill but are generated in the local windchill file location (../documents/windchill/libary/location of excel file).How can i automatically upload those file and folder to the location where they belong?Kind Regards.

Seems like when I add new Pdf's (actually I am adding updates to current PDf's) - the thumbnails are not present. But I'd swear...over a period of time they do generate. See attached. Top are new. Below them are older and you can see the thumbnail. What up?

Hi I'm Seon Ho.     After applying the Navigate extension, I can see Windchill's information through Thingworx by adding the Windchill Administrator account to the Thingworx Administrators group. This is a question about how to make a more detailed configuration.     There is no single organization or product in windchill.     First, do I need to distribute it to each organization or group of organizations?     If you add a group called sales to Thingworx and then log in to Windchill's account, it will be automatically added to the group called sales. Can it be mapped by organization, team, role, or group? If you can, let me know how.     When you log in to Thingworx with a Windchill account, an account is created automatically. Can you automatically map the language of the account that is created to match the language you set in Windchill? If you can, let me know how. Reference. [I set the preference language to Korean or English to cr

When Creo View publishes an assembly, it publishes the Master Rep.  Is there a way to have Creo View publish the Default Rep instead?   If not, is there a way to enable access to Simplified Reps in Creo View?

Hello,Does anyone know what the command is (if there is one) to edit reports in the query builder using the Windchill shell?Ideally I'd like to be able to completely replace a report already in the Query Builder with a .qml file, but still keep the original report ID.If this isn't possible, does anyone know the command to just upload a new report to the Query Builder in the form of a .qml file (I'm fairly sure that this is possible as I believe I've done it before)?Any help is greatly appreciated!Many thanks,

Hello, Not a savy Windchill/Creo user here, just an IT guy trying to support it lol. we have a desktop setup in one of our shop areas with a full install of Creo 3 tied to our Windchill 10.2 PDM - this is to allow these guys (welders) to pull up a full model before welding to check for any changes.  We keep running into an issue of them not emptying their workspace and not having the latest data to work with.   Has anyone figured out a good way to do this automatically? pretty much just want to delete and recreate their workspace without any human interaction lol.   if worse comes to worse I'll use something like autohotkeys and use mouse clicks, but I'm thinking a script or maybe something builtin would be nicer..    thanks!

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
