We allow users to add and remove participants from a workflow task. I can catch empty roles in the future, but how do you catch the current task if a user removes all participants in the current role they are an approver? Right now when you remove the last user, it hides the ability to add new users and just processes the task as if you Completed Task.
I have used Windchill PDMLink since version 3 and the “New Folder” (Next Gen UI) is terrible.What is PTC trying to look like?Not only would this require all existing work instruction and users guides to be updated, it’s just not a good layout.
I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 13.1 and Datecode with CPS 13.1.2.0 Why Workgroup Manager is needed for Solidworks? As observed Creo don't need the WGM any longer. Impact is with WGM it takes a lot of time, without WGM it is significantly faster for big assemblies. If we can have a quick call with PDMLink and CAD integration team to answer the follow up question it will be great. This is not urgent.

Workflow Task Variable does not render the string value as URL.From our java code, we are returning a string which is a url. This is URL is being displayed in the value of the variable Intarsys URL. This was clickable URL and was working in Windchill 12. After upgrading to Windchill 13, the string value in the UI is no more hyperlink(not clickable)I have tried changing the global variable inside workflow to java.net.URL. But in this case, the task itself is not getting generated. How to render the URL so that it is clickable. As in, it should open in a new window.
I am using Windchill Risk and Reliability Enterprise Edition (Formerly Relex) Release 11.1 We’re planning to migrate our Windchill 11.1 database, currently hosted on a Windows Server 2016 VM with SQL Server 2014 Express, to a clean Windows Server 2025 VM running Windchill 13.1 and SQL Server 2025 Express.The Windchill 13.1 conversion wizard does not recognize the imported database. Could you point us to documentation or recommended steps for completing this migration? Alternatively, rather than migrating a database to a new machine, can we simply export the projects? If so, what would we lose by only exporting our projects/files?

We have multiple Windchill Enviroments and no real way to see where emails come from.like subscription, task, error emails all look basicly the same.Seaching for an clear answer seems to be impossible, i tested a few mentioned options but they don’t seem to work. I should be able to change the email templates but its not working as documented. I have made an custom.properties file that contains the enviroment name.Restarted server to clear cache etc. Please is there a clear instruction to alter said items to include a custom enviroment name in the email titles.
We’re looking at how to handle material master data that is owned outside Windchill (ERP/PIM) but is needed inside Windchill on parts and BOM structures. I’d like to hear how other organizations have approached this and what you’d do differently.ContextWindchill version: 13.1.0 External master system: other Integration : Kafka Primary use: materials on parts and BOMs (not only on Creo models) Needs: where-used, change impact, release-time traceability, compliance, sharing with supplierHow to decide whether to replicate, link, or reference by ID?Replicate : Create a physical object with in windchillReference : Specify ID or link in the part attributes

Title: Windchill Upgrades: How Do You Handle Automated Browser Testing and Regression Testing?Hello Windchill Community,One of the recurring challenges in managing a Windchill environment is ensuring that existing business processes continue to work as expected after an upgrade or a major configuration change.While upgrading Windchill can bring important improvements, validating the impact on existing functionality remains a significant effort. Key user journeys — such as navigating the product structure, managing documents, updating attributes, working with change objects, or executing approval workflows — need to be tested again and again.Manual regression testing can quickly become time-consuming, especially when the number of customizations, integrations, and business-specific processes grows.Automated browser testing seems like an obvious solution, but in practice, many teams encounter a different challenge: how do you build automated tests that remain reliable and maintainable ac
How to Change the OOTB Attribute Display Name? Tried with Type and Attribute Manager by changing the localize master text but it doesn't reflect. Also put a required constraint it doesn't refelct.
Sampling pages within the Tech Pack should be unique to each sample type, displaying only the attributes relevant to the selected sample. Pages should be presented in the correct approval sequence, with visual assets displayed alongside each sample stage (including marked up images as well as original images). This provides clear guidance and context for the factory, improving understanding and reducing errors throughout the sampling process.
I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.26 Recently in our test environment we have identified that APE publishes wait until 9:58pm to start the publish. The worker is set to auto start and does not have an 'available time' set which I believe would mean it should always be available. I have been unable to identify a setting or configuration that would force Windchill to hold the publish till a set time to then send to PE.

We are currently running Windchill 12.0.2.25 and are planning a migration to Windchill+ 13.1.3, so we are looking for an approach that will work well in both environments.We have a requirement to rank Manufacturer Parts (MPNs) associated with OEM parts as follows:Rank 1 = Approved for Primary Build BOM Rank 2 = Approved for Secondary Build BOM Blank = No restriction; can be used in either buildThe challenge is that the ranking is assembly-specific, not a property of the Manufacturer Part itself.For example:Assembly-AMPN-A = Rank 1 MPN-B = Rank 2Assembly-BMPN-A = Rank 2 MPN-B = Rank 1Because of this:The rank cannot reside on the Manufacturer Part, since the same MPN may have different rankings depending on the assembly where it is used. I don't believe it belongs on the OEM-to-Manufacturer Part (AML) relationship either, since that relationship is global and would not vary by assembly context. Alternate/Substitute Parts do not appear to fit this use case because the requirement is tied
