Hi,When Turkish lira is entered in Windhill, I created an attribute that multiplies this value with this year's dollar rate.However, the dollar rate is fixed at a different value each year. For example; In 2021 I need to multiply this value by 11, in 2022 I need to multiply it by 17.64. How do you think I can overcome this situation? yes, I may not be able to establish a dynamic structure, but do you think I should create a new attribute every year? Note: attribute directly affects a form and its values ​​should not change. For this reason, it is impossible for me to regularly update the calculated attribute.  

Dear all, I have a question regarding completing the work items. I have a work item which includes a custom EnumeratedType attribute "MySize".  When I try to complete the activity using the OOTB Endpoint from Workflow Domain, I am getting an error that the enumerated type is not supported like below: "This task cannot be updated.Variable type ext.dropdown.MySize is  not supported." URL: {{baseUrl}}/WorkItems('{{WorkItemId}}')/PTC.Workflow.CompleteWorkitemRequest Body: {    "AutomateFastTrack": false,    "UserEventList": ["Yes"],    "VoteAction": "",    "WorkitemComment": "Dummy",     "Variables":[{        "Name":"MySize",        "Value":"Small",        "TypeName

I have a situation where a particular field on our Change Request has different choices depending on which project they are part of.  Using Global Enumerations, I can set up the cascading dependencies to show the correct choices.  But... having to choose the project first on creation is something I'd like to avoid.  Each of our projects have their own contexts... if you create a CR in PRJ1-Library, I want the project field choice preset and the dependent field's valid choices already filtered. I can use the OIR to set the project field but it only happens after the create form is submitted.  Can this be preset so the create form already has the correct project? (I am trying to avoid writing custom code and handlers... please let me know if this a forlorn hope...)

I'm trying to understand if customizing the Windchill Theme is a common customization - See (Customizing the Theme (ptc.com)  Do you do more than just rebranding? - Do you customize other colors - like font color? - Do you customize font size? - Do you use custom icons for the standard icons (other than custom Type icons)? - Any other similar customizations? Can you share examples of what you've done?   Thanks, Devi Vijayakumar Windchill R&D
