I know that the AND operator can just be used with caps and spaces (e.g. Electronics AND circuit), however the same syntax for OR is not working.  How do you search something like this:Electronics AND circuit OR boardI know WC 11 can probably do this much easier, but I am asking for 10.1 because that is what we are on now and will be for a while.

We have the Product context called Machine as the top level. I found where the person who set up the system had created a ACEMP Product template for the Machine product. We are now moving the design forward and to keep designs separate, we want to create a context named NexGen.I go to the product top level, hit the Create new product icon, give it a name and then select the ACEMP Product template. When I hit OK, the system comes back with a pop=up window saying it cannot find the ACEMP Product template. I have found the template and looked at it. Everything is built from the /default structure, so this template should work on any new Product context.The original ACEMP Product template was built at Windchill 8 and I am now running Windchill 10.0 m040. Does this make a difference? Being stored in Oracle, I would have thought it would have been updated by the update process.If anyone has any ideas of what I need to do, let me know. I will keep researching and reading to find out what is n

This is just a quick post about a potential error for which I found no directly pertinent information.If you're upgrading from Windchill 10.x to Windchill 11.x, and you're using SQL Server for the database, you need to upgrade the database to SQL Server 2012 or newer.  One of the upgrade steps is to run the AlterDatabaseCollation.cmd batch file to change the collation from the old supported version to the new supported version.If that batch file errors out and reports something similar to "Cannot resolve collation conflict between "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS" and "Latin1_General_100_CI_AS_KS_WS_SC" in add operator occurring in SELECT statement column 1", then you probably made the same mistake I made, changing the database containment type too early in the process.The AlterDatabaseCollation.cmd batch file needs to be run against a database that does not use partial containment because the scripts, as written, cannot account for the different collations that come into play on SQL

Once in a while I have a user that will check in a file from a workspace they didn't mean to and didn't realize they did.  These files go in a the type "Other".  I thought I could just create a policy that won't allow anyone to check in a file of this type.  When I went to the Policy Administration I couldn't find it.  Is this possible?

Hi Windchillers,   Need your help for Windchill license compliance. I have developed custom report which list's out the last logins of the users from DB's Audit records. This is a query builder report. The aim is to disable all users who have not logged in to Windchill since last 6 months.   However i have noticed that if i dump a report of Groups (in DS) and the users in this groups (from AD) into an excel; there are  many users listed there which have been disabled in AD. Note that they are not disabled in Windchill but disabled in AD   QUESTION 1) . A login event is not generated by such users but notifications are being sent to them ; they being part of some group. Do such members consume Windchill License ?   QUESTION 2) How do you classify the audited user list as in 4 distinct roles, (Heavy user, Light user, View & Print user and External user) ? Windchill is licensed as per these roles.   QUESTION 3) How to best generate the compliance repor

Hi all,We have a requirement to give access to baselines of a Part to project. The parts will be shared to Project, but we need to share the Baselines so that supplier can adhere to the baseline that specifies specific verisons of Part Reference documents.We know that Baselines object  access can be given manually to any user(including supplier who access by projectlink), as the part is shared.Looking for the API for giving adhoc access in WIndchill 11.0ThanksHari

I have a document. I making a copy of that document, thru code. When I create a new document, the contents/file attached to the original document does not get copied. I am using the ContentHolder & ContentHelper API.ContentHelper.getApplicationData() to get the data. Following is the code  ContentHolder content = null;  try  {      content = ContentHelper.service.getContents((ContentHolder)document_object);  }  catch (PropertyVetoException e)  {      e.printStackTrace();  }        Vector vcontent = ContentHelper.getApplicationData(content);           newDocument.setContentVector(vcontent);Which API would help to get data from a document & set it to a new document?

Need provision in WPA to restrict parts from getting assigned to recalculation queue if it has disqualified or Obsolete status.   This will considerably reduce the part count in recalculation queue. Avoid additional load in to the system.

For Navigate 1.4.0 we need to support Thingworx 7.3, and I can see that the artifact versions should be '7.3.0-b51'. I was able to find '7.3.0-b50' in our maven repositories, but not '7.3.0-b51', and the builds are failing when I update the version.   Does anybody know where are the thingworx '7.3.0-b51' artifacts.
