Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: I've created a first version of a project that uses the Windchill API to export a .pdf file from a .drw using this URI: /Windchill/servlet/odata/v3/CADDocumentMgmt/CADDocuments('OR:wt.epm.EPMDocument:201731655')/Representations EPMDocument:201731655 was known previously.Description: Is there a way to retrieve a list of all EPMDocument (only .drw ones) versus Drawing Numbers? I am asking it because I need to generate .pdfs from .dwgs in batches.

Version: Windchill Below 11.0 Use Case: Create Problem Report > Add affected objects(add more objects) > add comment to each affected object > Click on Finish to create the PR. Issue is not with 1 or 2 affected objects. When we have more number of object in affected object tab, then the issue reproduces with comment missing for few object in list.Description: Navigate to Product, select more objects(selected 35 objects), add comment for all and create Problem Report. Once the PR is created, go to related objects tab, and check the list. For some affected objects, the comment is missing in the table. Refer screenshot. Got the PTC article, https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS346216 As mentioned in PTC article, checked the custom-action.xml file, for create PR action.<action name="create" uicomponent="CREATE_PROBLEMREPORT" ajax="page" afterJS="PTC.wizard.saveTableData.writeAllTableRows"><command class="ext.thales.palma.change.nc.forms.CreatePalma

Version: Windchill 12.1   Use Case: (1) Manually update option set-related information based on BOM information defined in other systems. However, this is not a realistic answer considering the frequency and accuracy of data updates. (2) Implement by customization by Info*Engine. However, it is necessary to use unsupported option set related classes. Since classes related to option sets are not supported, there is a possibility that the functionality will be removed when Windchill is updated. TMC(Toyota Morter Corp.) is in the process of implementing Windchill BOM (EBOM/MBOM/BOP) for production use in April 2025. Currently, TMC designers are using "TMC's own system" to perform tasks equivalent to "defining BOM information. The TMC designers are currently using "TMC's own system" to perform tasks equivalent to "defining BOM information. In the future, TMC plans to use Windchill to define BOM information.

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 10.1 and Datecode with CPS M010   Due to business needs, we customized a button to rename documents. In the code logic called by this button, we temporarily set the session user as an administrator through SessionHelper.manager.setAdministrator, and then execute the renaming API - WTDocumentHelper.service.changeWTDocumentMasterIdentity, but the code execution reports a permission error.According to our understanding, the administrator should have the authority to rename the document. So we are very confused, can you help us solve this problem?

Hello Everyone, I'm working with Windchill 13.0 and need to add a simple action button to the Windchill interface that can call my custom API functions. Here’s what I want to achieve:1) Add a button to the Windchill UI.2) When the button is clicked, it should trigger a JavaScript function that calls a Windchill OData API.Here’s an example of the API function I want to call(will be using a java version of this function): async function getParts() {const apiUrl = "http://windchill.gosaas.io:80/Windchill/servlet/odata/v6/ProdMgmt/Parts?$count=false";const username = "ahsan";const password = "Tartan123";const basicAuth = 'Basic ' + btoa(username + ':' + password);try {const response = await fetch(apiUrl, {method: 'GET',headers: {'Authorization': basicAuth,'Content-Type': 'application/json','Accept': 'application/json'}});if (!response.ok) {throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);}const data = await response.json();return data;} catch (error) {console.error(

Hi, to execute jasper report from input jsp page I am using the following API- ReportHelper.manager.getThirdPartyReportExecuteUrl(reportRef,parameters); Here, the reportRef should be of type ObjectReference and should refer to a Windchill report object. However the object that I get from the jsp page using the request.getParameter("oid") is of type WTDocument.  Now, when I try to send this object in the above API , it gives the error-java.lang.ClassCastException: class wt.doc.WTDocument cannot be cast to class com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.report.Report (wt.doc.WTDocument and com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.report.Report are in unnamed module of loader 'app') Kindly suggest on how to resolve this.Thanks,Ramsha

Hello, for one of my customers I've created a wizard step with some change validation info.the data is arranged in a flat tree structure which is displayed in the treetable component.See attached example screenshot.One requirement is that non "green" checks are auto expanded for the user. I tried to implement it as described in the customizers guide, but so far no luck. The TreeTable component uses a custom AbstractConfigurableTableBuilder with an custom ExpansionStateManagerthe table config looks like this   JcaTreeConfig treeCfg = (JcaTreeConfig) factory.newTreeConfig(); treeCfg.setDataSourceMode(DataSourceMode.DISABLED); treeCfg.setType(Object.class.getName()); treeCfg.setTargetObject("origObject"); treeCfg.setComponentMode(ComponentMode.VIEW); treeCfg.setActionModel("tcw tcwValidation table"); //treeCfg.setMenubarName("tcw tcwValidation table"); treeCfg.setId(TCW_TCWVALIDATION_TABLE_ID); treeCfg.setLabel(WTMessage.getLocalizedMessage(TCW_RESO

Has anyone (with limited or no customization), came up with a way to limit the type of a process object to select based on the base object type?   The use case I am investigating is this: Subtype of Change Review (called Milestone Review). I want users to create Problem Reports against the review to document issues found while completing the review using a subtype of a PR (Review Finding).    Ideally, even from the Action menu I would like the selection to be "New Review Finding" instead of "New Problem Report" when being created against the "Milestone Review" subtype.           Alternatively, when "New Problem Report" is selected, I would like it to default to "Review Finding" as the subtype in the New PR wizard  

Currently, I've setup a basic document approval workflow in Windchill where the first task is to submit the document for approval and 'set up participants' of who to approve. Is there a way require that users actually 'set up participants' into the various roles? The set up participants is on a separate tab and it's easy for users to click submit without assigning anyone to the roles. Using Windchill 11.0 M030.
