Windchill

Greetings Windchill Gurus,I have been working with a Windchill instance that was implemented long before I came on board.  There has been many changes made to the system from OOTB.  Now I am cleaning up all the Access Controls.Can someone tell me if there is any documentation of the OOTB ACLs available?Using Windchill 10.2 m030Thanks in advance,Cam

I have a couple, not all, WTParts that for some reason are showing multiple associations to the same version of a drawing.  For some reason the two instances I have investigated is has been four drawings.  I have tried manually editing the relationship and it did not resolve the issue.

Hi All,Can anyone let me know what is ContextBasedAgreementType. I had encountered this element while i am trying to edit the securityLabelsConfiguration.xml file which is a part in creation of Agreements. Is ContextBasedAgreementType a subtype of Agreement ? Can we find this is in Type and Attribute Manager Utility ? Or do we need to create a sub type of Agreement as ContextBasedAgreementType ? Can you please let me know about it.Thanks and Regards,Aditya Achanta

How can I find in WGM the data transfor matrix of a 3D CAD Document

I want to be able to have a Library Read only member  kick off the request to promote process.  Currently we have a library manger give the user the original file.  Once the edit is done the user gives it back to the library manager to upload to the system.  Then we want the user to be able to do the request to promote.  I have tried setting up the promotion notice and that did not work.  We are on WC 10.2 M020. Thanks,

When we create designs of plastic injection moulded parts we model it as an assembly which contains the actual plastic part plus any inserts and/or paint with a naming convention similar to the image belowUsing the example above, auto-associate creates wtparts for MP123456.asm, MP123456_moulding.prt and the BP parts. We don't really need the wtpart for MP123456_moulding.prt. Is there a way to stop auto-associate from creating this wtpart using, for example the fact the number (mp123456_moulding.prt) contains an underscore or could an attribute be used to tell auto-associate not to create the wtpart?Thanks in advance.David.

Hi ALL can you suggest me best way to get it done by customization Regards,Hanumesha SG

Hi all,Not all users want to see the filter "Type: Latest and with Design, Working". The windchill default is this setting.There are often lot of users who are not interested in the Latest, but they will be interested in "Date Effectivity".Can the default setting be set as  something other than Default, for example , can it be set to a Saved Filter that the admin has created, say " Date Effectivity".The idea is not to force such users to perform extra clicks to reach the filter that he is interested in , say "Date effectivity".I expected this to be a preference, or a property. Looks like its not.Let me know how you have solved this usability blockade for light users, who may not know where to seek the correct filter.Thanks!Hari

Has anyone tried to configure the CAD workers so that they create PDFs of the Drawing Overlay functionality? Does anyone know if this is possible?More specifically I am thinking it would be nice to capture this in a workflow that was kicked off as part of an engineering change workflow. The publisher would grab the affected and resulting drawings and create a PDF representation that shows the overlay.

I'm using the wwgmtk to import a list of Solidworks files in my workspace. Some of the files already exists within Windchill and I would like to set the "reuse existing" option as in the GUI, but using APIs.

I read on the book :" the drawing retrieves its geometry from its associated model, changes to the model are automatically reflected in the drawing and do not require the drawing's CAD document to iterate if the model geometry changes."and I do not agreemy companies has rules mandating iterating the drawing when the model changeshow i can do it automatically , what setting i have to useandwhen i drain on workspace  the part or asm how i can download also their drawing, how is the setting ?   Many thanks

Hello my name is Giorgio, I need to retrieve all team and team template related to a Product using Windchill Java API. Does ayone already faced this task ??Thank you

Curious if anyone knows what tables the "As Stored" baselines are kept in.  If I understand correctly, every time a group of related objects is checked in together, a hidden baseline is created.  This allows the "as stored" configuration to be recalled in the future (what version of each object was used).  I would like to know what database table(s) this information is kept in.  From what I can tell, EPMMemberLink and EMPReferenceLink are not the place.  Thanks.

We are looking for ways to create red lining of eBOM in Windchill similar to FlexPLM. Any thoughts?

We use Windchill's PDMLink for our Creo files, but we use a homegrown solution to publish PDF files for the rest of the organization's use.  We need to get rid of our homegrown solution due to our export controlled documentation doesn't meet specifications.  Any help is hugely appreciated.thank you.--Doug Conner

Is there SQL-Query possible for viewing the (selected) choices in a variant specification (options&variants)

What value/preference determines the number of objects listed in the Updates table (home page) and can it be changed?....I believe OOTB is set for 25 items, I would like to change this to 50 or more.We are running WC 10.0 M040Thanks,Greg

I'm trying to install the UEM module (WebAgent in Apache from Dynatrace) on our brand new Windchill 11 with PSM5 installed and this is creating an issue.Before instaling the 6.3 WebAgent from Dynatrace everything is ok from user side and after installing and restarting Apache, the users are unable to upload content to windchill.We are currently testing a new install with using WebAgent 6.3 with fix pack 18 (6.3.4).

Hello,I want to crate two sequence numbering system. One for one type of part and another for another type.So we would get 1xxx xxx xxx and 5xx xxx xxx, dependent on file type.Is this possible?
