Windchill Customization

Hello all,  For last hour and a half I´ve been searching here on forum and on uncle Google, but didn´t manage to find anything helpful, therefore I would like to ask you, the guru´s for your help. In general, I´m trying to find a simplest way (report, advanced search, or other) to identify unique objects used only in that assembly in order to mark them obsolete.To explain a bit more, we are creating assemblies from various parts, that can be shared between assemblies (like brackets for example), however I want to be able to identify a list of objects only used in that specific assembly (for example parts unique to aprt number 201000). *If I will be able to generate list of unique objects for specific assembly, then I can export all unique objects to that assembly, enter another assembly number, export list and remove duplicates to get a list of completely unique parts not related to any other product.* Do you have any idea, if that is possible or have you any s

Is it possible to search for all attributes that are in the various nodes using the advanced search or the PartsLink Explorer. Currently I only see it as possible if I attach all attributes to the top node. Unfortunately, this leads to attributes being displayed on the overview pages of the various products that are not necessary for the respective products. So I would like to only hang attributes for the respective products on a node-related basis and then be able to search for all attributes using the search. Example: Attributes nominal width in node 1 Attributes material in node 2 Attributes color in node 20 My search Show me all articles regardless of the classification node Nominal width: 2.5 Material: POM Colour blue How can I do this without placing the attributes in the top node?

My assumption is that the information I am looking for is contain in the .ol file. I was looking for a way to pull the mass value as an indicated that mass properties were properly done from a workflow check. Is there an API that can interact with .ol files?     

Some one know how to get programatically de EPMDocuments associated(s) to a WTPart? What's the task: 1 Verifying if my WTPart is new and have a family field filded (i created a rule that the new WTParts have a "WC_" prefix this is working).1.1 Been a WTPart, i need to change his Name and Number by a code getting by a ERP endpoint (it´s not working but i simulated). I able make it with some inside lines code on "workflow template" (didn't like, but could't work with java unit - and i'll had a new dificult ahead, i know it).1.2 And need change the EMPDocument(s) too, if exists ones of (like .prt, .drw or .asm), with the same code getting by ERP.Here is my problem. I couldn't get the objects with Java or code inside template (yet). Tryed a lot of java codes, but get a lot problems with "jar imports" that is not recognized.2. And at last, if is not new or don´t has a specific family, do nothing (it´s working). I has found a lot of solutions inverse, and try change the logica

Hi All I want to map certain attributes from Change Request to Change Notice and from Change Notice to Change Activity. I created the alias attributes below mapping rules:theChangeOrder2@wt.change2.AddressedBy2~theChangeRequest2^wt.change2.ChangeRequest2~nametheChangeActivity@wt.change2.IncludedIn2~theChangeOrder2^wt.change2.WTChangeOrder2~fgesArea But I'm not able to find the attribute values migrated from one Change Object to another.Can anybody help me understand my error here.

I am having instance CAD Part and want to fetch Generic CAD Part using java code. Is there anyapi for this.

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: Deployment AutomationDescription: Hi all, As a part of deployment automation I wanted to know if there is any way to Export and Import Type Constraints especially Legal Value Lists easily. Like maybe a Loader file. 

I have a ticket open with support but my guess is that the community may have an answer first (again). New available entries in enumeration table are displayed correctly in the enumeration but are displayed in the Remove table when viewed from the Managed Type attribute that uses that Global Enumeration value list.   We are on Version 11, M020. The global reusable enumeration is at site. Its a list of project numbers ( 1234 - Name of project). This table has a list of selectable values on the left and a list of removed on the right. The left can be selected, both can be searched if those on the right have been used on a CR, Document etc. You know how it is suppose to work 🙂 What is happening is I can move the items from the left column (selectable) to the right (not selectable) and the table when used displays these changes. All good. But, any new value added to the left is displayed in that Managed Attribute table (save, done) but then it does not displ

Through java i collected all the cad assemblies from the BOM in  windchill  and i added the Cad Assembly into the workspace, I wanted to checkout those Cad assembly from the workspace and do checkin from the solid works. I tried the below code to checkout but it is checkout from the windchill side not from the workspace//Get check out folder for the current user in the sessionwt.folder.Folder checkoutFolder = wt.vc.wip.WorkInProgressHelper.service.getCheckoutFolder();//Check out objectwt.vc.wip.CheckoutLink chklink = wt.vc.wip.WorkInProgressHelper.service.checkout(cad, checkoutFolder, "Check out comment");

Hello, I have an attribute under WTDocument which is customized to be a user picker using the data utility functionality. I want to restrict the selection of users to a specific role i.e., only the users under that role should be made available for selection. Request your insights for the same. Thanks,Sha

Can F (unreliability) be displayed in the FT diagrams following the calculations? I can see the updated diagram displaying the Q data but not the F data if unavailability is checked in the calculations. Thank you. (SW version: PTC Windchill Quality Solutions 11.0 Enterprise Edition MO30-CPS02)

I added the epm document to workspace though api, and i want to check out the added EPM document from the workspace.   this is my code  private void addToWorkspace(EPMDocument doc) { try { wt.fc.ReferenceFactory referencefactory = new wt.fc.ReferenceFactory(); wt.fc.WTReference wtreference = referencefactory.getReference(doc); wt.epm.EPMDocument epm = (wt.epm.EPMDocument) wtreference.getObject();   System.out.println("epm-->"+epm);   wtreference = referencefactory.getReference("OR:wt.epm.workspaces.EPMWorkspace:1150900");   wt.epm.workspaces.EPMWorkspace workspace= (wt.epm.workspaces.EPMWorkspace) wtreference.getObject();   System.out.println("workspace-->"+workspace);   //Get the EPMDocument configuration   wt.epm.workspaces.EPMAsStoredConfigSpec asStored = wt.epm.workspaces.EPMAsStoredConfigSpec.newEPMAsStoredConfigSpec(epm);   wt.fc.QueryResult queryResult = wt.epm.structure.EPMStructureHelper.service.navigateReferencesToIteration

Team Is it possible to GET OData data from within JSP code? Calling to some Java interface within WRS, so I can pass in some OData parameters and receive the Windchill data.   The JSP code is invoked after user authentication, so I would not want to be re-authenticating in the call to WRS.  

Team  There is a  "Windchill Security Labels Configuration and Implementation Guide" but I cannot find it.  Please help!  

Hello, in all the years of Windchill projects there is one problem-area that's always coming up:The (Creo) workspace and it's (annoying) limitations. Quite often there is a triple set of related objects: CAD Model, CAD drawing and a related item. (yes, that's somewhat simplified 😉 )Model, drawing and item have usually a different number - which results in the "problem" that in a table view it's hard to group those triple sets or pairs in the table view.A solution we sometimes use is to define an IBA on the EPM documents named "partno"  as well as on the WTParts. that attribute always contains the value of WTPart.number.result: in the workspace it's possible to sort by column "partno" and the objects are grouped together. my customers like that. But... while this is "ok" for smaller installations it's creating a lot of "duplicate" data in the database and especially in the StringValue table which is quite often already huge even without that attribute. Problems

Hi experts, We are developing an add-on using some REST APIs(such as NewDownstreamBranch) to automate some UI operations of the BOM Transformer with workflow robot processing. Currently, when calling the REST API, we need to authenticate the workflow initiator, but we face the challenge of not having a way to obtain the user's password information. Is there a good way to obtain the password and pass it to the REST API? Would there be a way to obtain the password if it's an unsupported API? Alternatively, is there another authentication method that does not involve directly passing the password to REST API? If there is no viable method, we are considering requiring users to enter their password for this process.

Team I am configuring Security Labels.  For the download confirmation popup ("You are downloading sensitive XYZZY information, please confirm'), I have been asked to make some of the words red.  Can you use Rich Text in the message, similar to description fields elsewhere? I have tried using a Spring Boot color code "${AnsiColor.RED}" but it does not work.  Perhaps a "<span>" tag with some css? Thanks

I'm trying to figure out how to use the query builder to make a custom report that will return a part structure with serial numbers of a part config instance.  My goal is to have a report that can instruct or document what serials numbers went into a build and pull a report. For example: If I have a WT part number 00123 that has 3 different configurations (S/N 001, 002, 003) with a structure of parts underneath that all have serial numbers. How do I make a custom report to list that? 

Hi all,   I need to retrieve template reports via the OData API. I have used the following API   /Windchill/servlet/odata/IE/InvokeIETask { "Task": "com/ptc/windchill/enterprise/report/ExecuteReportTemplate.xml", "Params": [ { "Name": "object_ref", "Value": "wt.query.template.ReportTemplate:1234" } ] }   now i need to change the report criteria directly from the API. i tried to add a parameter but it doesn't seem to work. where can i find documentation? what is the correct parameter to pass?   I have this criteria   ((Associated Part.Latest Iteration equals 1) AND (Part Master.Number in 1234))   Thanks
