Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: I want to publish the 3D PDF with our custom executable file from Windchill.Description: Dear PTC Community, I am reaching out for assistance regarding the configuration of a custom generic worker.I have followed the steps outlined in the documentation CS67812., but I am unable to generate the. in and. out files in the temp directory after running the workerstart.bat file. Moreover, I would like to run our custom executable file that converts Creo files from windchill into 3D PDF files.Could someone please advise where I can set the location of this executable file in the configuration?

Version: Windchill 11.2 Use Case: Before we were able fetch Thumnails of EPM documents by getting the URL using a call as follows /Windchill/servlet/odata/v3/CADDocumentMgmt/$metadata#CADDocuments('OR:wt.epm.EPMDocument:')/Thumbnails and then using this URL (/Windchill/servlet/WindchillGW/wt.fv.master.StandardMasterService/doDirectDownload/...) as a image scr in a Webapp to display the ThumbnailDescription: With the newest CPS Update 17 the Thumbnail-URL changed to <Windchill-Server>/Windchill/servlet/WindchillAuthGW/wt.fv.master.RedirectDownload/redirectDownload/... which expects a Basci Authentication. This situation makes the integration of the Thumbnail a lot more complicated and thats why I'm wondering if there is another option like having (configuring to have) a temporarly valid URL to fetch the Thumbnail as before like a lot of other Content Providers do. As to retrieve the URL needs authentication already such a temporary url should not be a security issue

Version: Windchill 13.0   Use Case: Brand new Windchill upgrade, brand new VMs for new CAD workers with clean installations... that don't work. Description: This is perhaps a mix of both a rant and request for assistance.  We are in process of testing Windchill 13.0.2.1. The rehearsal system is up and running and for the publishing environment I made new VMs to house the worker instances.  Worker 1 NX instance 2 Creo instances 1 Office Worker 2 NX instance 2 Creo instances Worker 3 NX instance   For the workers, I went with: Creo View Adapter version 11.0 Windchill Workgroup Manager 13.0.2.1 Creo 10.0.6.0 NX2306.8101 Office 365.    The VMs all have Windows Server 2022 Datacenter for OS.  It's not my first time setting up CAD workers so I figured 20-th time is the charm to get it right the first time... especially since my current production setup is running so well (actually true!).    So, I did all the installations first.&nb

Hi team, Trying to have some insight on Promotion Request.Using OOTB Promotion request. Scenario is: when we are on the Select Participant tab while creating Promotion Request, even if we don't select any user request gets created and gets assigned to users in approver role.The ask is, if no user is selected in Select Participant tab for Approver the Promotion Request should not get created and throw an error Approver needs to be assigned.Any help on this.

I don't know if this is the right way, but since this group is growing, maybe we could work on this document to insert useful resource for reporting.   I leave the document open, so everyone can add other useful things.   Maybe you can vote up also these three ideas:   Possibility to load SQL statements in Query Builder Report in Windchill PDMLink   Report: PTC have to share what TS do about it with their customer   Set the query limit only for Reports in Windchill PDMLink       As you can read on this discussion, Albert Anderson gave us a link about Windchill UML Model Documentation - English   Another useful document about query builder from Albert Anderson Query Builder for Live Project Status Reports (NPI, Large Engineering Change, etc.)   Another article about UML from TS https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/case_solution.jsp?n=CS188216&lang=en&source=community   I think it could be helpful also to catalogue repor

Hello PTC Community,I'm working on my thesis project on integrating ECAD data (specifically from Altium Designer) into Windchill. I'm looking for guidance on how to effectively add ECAD documents (such as schematics, PCB layouts, and BOMs) as related objects to parts and assemblies in Windchill using Windchill Rest Services. I've encountered a limitation where there doesn't seem to be a direct REST API endpoint to create ECAD documents or relate them to parts or assemblies.  Any advice, tips, or experiences would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your support.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.5is it possible to configure the creation of the promotion request in such a way that the user has to select an approver before "Finish"? Currently, the user can select "Finish" even though no approver is entered.

The "Show occurrences" function in the BOM transformer is not working properly. It shows Nonoccurrence in the structure. I cannot see the occurrences in the visualization anymore.
