Windchill

I am working on making a FRACAS input form in windchill 10.1 & wanted to know if there was a way I could get some of the fields to auto fill with a previous incident's data when that previous incident's identifier is entered into a "parent failure #:" field so that they wont need to re-enter all the data for a repeat failure. Thank you for your time.

Using Windchill, every window I open in sequence of a previous one has reduced font size, getting so small it becomes unworkable.Where can I find the setting to keep the font size the same? See screengrabs below.

Please help me in this. \\\\\\Thanks Roop

Looking at an ALM / PLM integration with Windchill. ALM we expect to integrate is supporting OSLC (Open Services Lifecycle Collaboration). From this point of view what is the best way to integrate with windchill in terms of architecture? (knowing that webservices are required for OSLC). I was thinking of the REST web services but unsure what windchill really supports for this? Thank you in Advance. Regards, Devidas

  Implement the PDMLink options, which enables to choose if unverified family table can be checked in or not. Currently we have to invest additional effort to create specific triggers / listeners, which can prevent check in unverified family tables. Options available in Creo:    Modelcheck Die config.pro option: verify_on_save_by_default=yes     are not sufficient. We need the option in PDMlink. Now in PDMlink 10.2 or 11.0 it's possible to check in the unverified family table.

User has accepted a workflow task and completed the task. The task should automatically be removed from inbox and go to the next task. The wf does advance to the next task and the task does appear in the next user's inbox, however, the previous task still appears in the previous user's inbox (note: this task does indicate that it has been completed). Has anyone else had this happen? Note: All other wf tasks are working correctly in this user's inbox. Thanks

I would like to create a Query report that lists all the drawings that are released with a list of CRs that I input.   Note: Drawings are released using a Change Notice. Change notice is created from Change Request. So there may be multiple notices for a single Change request and each notice may have multiple drawings added as resulting objects.   Appreciate if someone can help me to create this report.   Using Windchill 10.1   Regards, Manjunath

I have a workflow that I'd like to have the user select a user, then have the workflow update the PBO's team and add it to a specific role.- I created the WTUser variable in the workflow,- I created a method to take the user and put it into the PBO's team. There is some debugging statements in here and it outputs the team before and the team after.The expression runs successfully but the before and after team look identical with the user not showing in the output, but if you go to the UI it shows the users.Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?public static void addUserToRole(ObjectReference self, String toRole, WTUser currentUser) throws WTException{Role to_role = Role.toRole(toRole);wt.team.WTRoleHolder2 team = null;try {team = TeamHelper.service.getTeam( (TeamManaged)self.getObject());System.out.println("_____________BEFORE___________________");System.out.println("ROLE: " + to_role.toString());System.out.println("USER: " + currentUser.getFullName());System.out.println("TEAM: " +team.getDis

Hi all,Using Windchill PDMLink 10.2.I have, in the past added custom attributes for EPMDocument usage links directly in the Type and Attribute Management , navigating to the EPMDDocument .Also, custom attributes in Part Usage link.But, here I want to add custom attribute in the link "References Document", however there is no Object Type like this (Similar to EPmDocument Usage Link or Part Usage Link).There is only Document Uses link, but this is meant for the Document Structure Tab and not for the References Document in the Related Objects tab.If there is no object type for this link, then only way is to study what is going into that link through the JCA debug or look at the Document tables in DB..Is ther any way out?Thanks & RegardsHari

There is prospect we are working on for a global PLM project. There is a big group and multiple different companies acquired in years distributed to different locations. The aim of the global PLM deployment is the ability to share data between the different companies under the same group. However, this companies has their own ways of working and most of the times the data has to be safe and only accessible within one organization.in order to provide that, given the fact that windchill setup suggest single organization to be implemented, what is the best practice moving forward?do you recommend to create one organization and each product should belong to one company or do you think the different organizations should be created. if we go with the multiple organization architecture, what are the pros and cons.can we still share change management between multiple organizations users, share data etc?

There is prospect we are working on for a global PLM project. There is a big group and multiple different companies acquired in years distributed to different locations. I would like to know if there is any customer references in which the master location has around more than 500 heavy users and another site where the latency is more than 250ms has also around 500 heavy users working with a replica? The prospect is willing to understand if this has been used before?

Hello Everyone,I have created a Validator for Change Task which validates the Release Target States of the Resulting Items. The state limitation should happen based on the CN attribute Complexity (Fast Track vs Full Track)If while creating the CN, user changes the value to Complexity attribute to Fast Track, I am finding it difficult to read that value in the validator written for Change Task.Is there any method with which we can read the Complexity attribute defined in the wizard session on the validator written for the Change Task?Any insights on this would be helpful. Thanks in advance !Regards,Karan
