Why are Business Rules considered better than the workflow helper. It is quite easier to add the validation directly in workflow helper but still the Business Rules are considered as the standard one.

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: Currently, I am able to create a promotion request in windchill without selecting any members from the participant list. I want to add up a condition in the promotion creation page, when a user miss to select the required participant from the member list it pops up an error stating that the required members are not added, and the promotion request cannot be created without them.Description: When the promotion is created with this issue, the workflow gets stalled when the task is to be created for those missing participant and it cannot be recovered back. User needs to create a new promotion request to proceed further with. I want to implement a way in promotion request creation where user is notified or there is some pop-up error/validation that checks when the user fails to add the appropriate users in the member list. Is there a way we can add this validation or customization to our windchill? 

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: As a developer I need to figure out which versions of 3rd-party libs are being used in different versions of WindchillDescription: It used to be that you could download the Software Matrix for Windchill and in that document read about the software components bundled with Windchill. You could for instance see which version of commons-codec that was included. For version 13 this no longer sees to be the case.Does anyone know if this is still possible? If not, then is there some other way to figure this out that doesn't involve decompiling the wc3rdPartyLibs jar and go through the class files. Regards,Daniel Martinsson

Hi Sumit,   I have a custom utility on Promotion Notice and I want to retrieve all task data like name, number, role, assignee, activity name, vote, and comments as well. So, I  retrieved all the data but I am STRUGGLING to get user comments and votes while approving the promotion request or while performing the "approve" task.

Is there any API or workaround to get the vote from a WorkItem?

Hello,I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.2.23I would like to programmatically create Variant Specification. As far as I can see in the documentation such customization should be possible.e.g.Sample Code for VariantLoadNavCriteriaBean API but the problem is I cannot findVariantSpecLoaderHelper.service.loadVariantSpecs(beans, partConfigSpecBeans, atoConfigSpecBeans);The classes for 'VariantSpecLoaderHelper' are not present in the Windchill installation and I do have license and I am able to manually create Variant Specification in the system.Can you help me to resolve this issue?
