API's to create a Disposition Plan for Nonconformance.

Hello EveryoneI am glad to see everyone at the 2015 June conference in Nashville,TN. I wanted to ask to see if everyone on this group wants to have a Web session every three months? And what days and times is best for everyone? I like your thoughts. Thank you.

Dear Users,Pls suggest on the clarification I have on the Sync Robot defined in WF's1. I have modified the robot to use Object even but my Initial and Routing expression needs to wait for the Child / Associated part of PBO. Which mean I need to update the parents state based on the state change happening in child. But if I use Object Event , it listens to the PBO and not the child. Also i doont want to use Class event due to the performance constraint.Pls suggest if any customisation / ideas is feasible to overcome this .Regards.Srira,

Consider criteria where objects are searched by Latest then "add to workspace" is performed and Windchill should use filter "Latest"When "add to workspace" criteria is "Production" then Windchill should use filter "As Stored".PDMlink does not store / no option to store these settings.For example1)Add to workspace2)Edit filter3) Configuration Spec changes, Let say in Step #1 search  criteria is “Latest” then the Configuration Spec should be Latest search and if Step #1 is Search for Production file then the Configuration Spec should be “As Stored”

As a PTC Partner with custom netmarkets additions, schema tweaks, and Info*Engine tasks for Windchill 10.2 where can we find guidelines for evolving our extensions to support Windchill 11?Where can we find new material on the OSLC resources that PTC Windchill 11 now exposes? OSLC CM? OSLC RM? OSLC PM? Service Providers? Discovery URLs? Support for Creation and Selection and Preview Dialogs?

We have Windchill PDMe (V 10.2) creating IGES and STEP files while promoting CAD models to Released.  WC also creates PDF and DXF files while promoting drawings to Released.  The problem is that our CNC programmers want a slightly different version of IGES files to read-in to MasterCam software that the default WC settings are not currently producing automatically.The CNC guys want the IGES files WC creates with the following options turned on: Surfaces, Wireframes and Datum Curves  and Points.  By default WC gives the surfaces only.  If we create the IGES files individually while in Creo 3.0, we have all these options available and the files come out just the way the CNC guys like.Any thoughts about how to modify the IGES creation via a config setting or rule, directly out of Windchill?Thanks,Bob SchwerdlinSr. Design EngineerDukane Corp.2900 Dukane DriveSt. Charles, IL  60174

Is it possible to open the pdf file of a published creo drawing file directly in Acrobat reader from the search results table ?The menu action is available as "FIle > open pdf" in 'Representation / Annotation' under content tab of a drawing as shown below :This particular link is needed in the search result table as a pdf icon or on the right click of the object listed in search. Note this is specific to drawings published as pdf's.Your inputs would be highly appreciated. -Vaibhav

Hello, I am new to PTC Windchill (Quality Solutions).  I am not sure if this is right forum.  We are currently using ver 11.0 and am finding the on-line documentation less than user friendly. I need basic starter information - like assistance in inserting new lists into a form and need to know how to delete, modify forms.  Are there better instructions somewhere? Thank you

During configuration webservice client ant script converts Datahandler type to byte[]

I want to know that if checking in a part in windchill is having any data to trace whether which computer has uploaded it, like IP address or so........

The below method seems to be working great but I was curious, since it's not documented, if there's a better way to do link described-by documents to a WTProductInstance2. WTProductInstance2 instance = WTPartHelper.service.littleCreateDocLinks(instance, collection, false);If you are wondering where I found this, it's being used by PartManagementHelper in the createRelationship() method. This PartManagmentHelper is a class called by some form processors, one in particularly is for the wizard that adds described-by documents to a part instance from the UI. I could use the createRelationship() method, but it's making a couple checks I've already handled so I went straight for the gold. Thanks,ChrisWindchill 10.2 M020, CPS15

How can i create a Container or Context using Windchill task (via xml)?

I need to modify our WTUsers fullName values.Is there an API that updates fullName?Thanks

I have a wtpart structure created by a cad structure and want to assign an expression from an external source. (preferably xml file) to it.I found the ITO loader method for loading whole project for options and variant’s. but when I use this method, Windchill creates a new structure in the existing end item. And is not using the structure created by Creo.I used the sample from the windchill dir <Windchill>\loadFiles\ato\demodata as a guide.Does anyone know how I can assign expression to the existing structure without adding wtparts?

Hello!Anyone who knows to to bulk retrieve attribute values?To bulk load lots of attribute values from a single persistable you would normally write something like below:PersistableAdapter pa = new PersistableAdapter(p,null,Locale.US,null);pa.load(attributeNames);for(String attributeName : attributeNames){  String attributeValue = (String) pa.get(attributeName);}However this only allows me to fetch attribute values for a single persistable at a time.I'm looking at a way to extend the code to bulk load a collection of persistables instead.Does anyone know if this is possible?Doing this by querying the database is quite easy but I would much rather use an existing API.Thanks and best regards,Peter

newly created product not listing for all users in Windchill 9.1Its searchable by admins not by common users.

Good Afternoon,While it is easy to create a report that returns all parts in a particular state, I've been asked to enhance this by including the date the parts entered this state.   Since we use primarily promotions, I think the date of the last promotion that affects the part would provide the answer.     Does anyone have some ideas about where this information is stored and how to string it together?Thanks

Dear Experts,We are trying to run custom CATIA API from WGM using tookit function:wwgmtkApplication::executeCustomCommand ()This is called from initialize() method of custom-dll registered in WWGM (customizationTK). It's crashing since this initialize() method is getting called before CATIA launched!.Is it possible to add a listened in toolkit when CATIA is launched or is there any work-around solution?(WGM 10 + CATIA V5 R24)Thanks for your time.Nathaniel

I work as an IT PM and am looking to build a general awareness of customization constraints within Windchill. I am in no way looking to become a developer. This knowledge would be used to enhance scoping activities with our business teams. Thank you!
