Change Part autogenerated number

Hi there,

You do this through the Part Object Initialization Rule. In the NumberGenerator line you can add an additional argument in front of the one that calls the numbering sequence. The final result would look something like this:

<AttrValue final="false" force="false" ignore="false" algorithm="com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.revisionControlled.server.impl.NumberGenerator"  id="number">

       <Arg>6AAB</Arg>

    <Arg>{GEN:wt.enterprise.SequenceGenerator:yourpartnumbersequence:5:0}</Arg>

That number generation line is usually the 3rd or so main line in the OIR. You can't edit it live; download the OIR, edit it then in the Edit function of the OIR upload the new version.
