Windchill Customization

Hi all I have got a WTPart(1.01) link to an EPMDocument(1.01). I perform an attribute update using a custom tool which results in iteration i.e WTPart(1.02) and EPMDoc(1.02). When I try to create a representation from the WTPart(1.02) it picks the EPMDocument(1.01) to create the representation though latest config is specified. I get the following warning in WVS Job Monitor Warning: EPMDocument Config Spec selects a different iteration of the specified top level EPMDocument, specified EPMDocument iteration will be used.I actually want it to take the latest version of EPMDoc(1.02) for creating representation.Can somebody please help me understand this issue or correct me if my approach is wrong?Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am trying to create a report that returns a list of task with the following columns:Work ItemCreated On (Date)Initiated byTask Due Date/Deadline - found under Task > Template View > DeadlineObject Priority - found under Task > Template View > PriorityTask Name Trip CountAccepted date - found under Task > Task History > Performed OnCompleted By Date Completed - found under Task > Process Status > Date CompletedState ContextLast ModifiedI have been able to narrow down the type/tables these properties are coming from but I am having trouble matching them to the correct attribute. The Resource for reporting was very helpful but I was not able to find mapping for some of these  properties.I also used jcaDebug=1 to gather detail information. This helps me narrow down the table but it does not help map the attribute. ColumnID value doesnt match to an attribute name in the type/table/Row Object. If you have an

1. Can we display a state column in the Find Affected Objects window?or2. Can we add a filter and filter by state?or3. Can we use baseWhereClause="(state.state='PRODUCTION')" in jsp file and customize, so that only production state objects are returned?   

Dear Community, I have customized a Change Notice type and created a custom attribute in this type, this attribute is a drop down box to select the value, in addition I have created a template for change notice based on this type, in the template I have set the value of this attribute, in this case when the user creates a change notification, select the template, the value of this attribute will be brought over, but the user can still select other values When user creates a change notice, can it be set to read-only by the function of OOTB, or do I have to write a customized Validator?  Because we don't want to give the user a choice, just follow the values of the template. Thank you. Best Regards,Chason

We would like to disable Revise action from Folder Browser's action if certain condition doesn't matches our expectations. It can be achieved through Object's Details page, But couldn't perform the same in Folder Action.  Or else, Throwing explicit exception while revising the object from Folder Browser would also be fine. Please suggest your opinion dear friends!!

  I want the users to be able to edit only few columns(Comments or Disposition Comments), and make the other columns/fields read-only in this table. Is it possible with basic customization/configuration?

Hi , Anyone aware if we can get the "Set Location" value changed during the check in of CAD object from workspace. 1. User will create a CAD Document in Workspace with Context is (ABC)2. User will change the context using Set Location available in Check In options  (XYZ)3. the CAD object is created in ABC only is there a API to get the changed location value ?  above options are not based on UI, we have some customization to check the valid objects to valid container which the validation is handled via listener during check in.   

We automated the process of duplicating the ManufDS and associated Process Plan from the MAPSB by extracting the number and name of the ManufDS and filling them into the corresponding fields of the Process Plan. To achieve this, we developed a custom class that extends the default DuplicateProcessPlanAssociationCopyOverDelegate class and modified certain methods. Subsequently, we replaced the default class with our custom class in the mpmlink.service.properties.xconf file.   <Option cardinality="singleton" requestor="com.ptc.windchill.mpml.processplan.MPMPartToProcessPlanLink" selector="mapsb_duplicate" serviceClass="com.ptc.windchill.mpml.CustomClass"/>   this worked smoothly in version 11, but unfortunately, it is not functional in the current version 12.1. and the line corresponding to DuplicateProcessPlanAssociationCopyOverDelegate is no longer exists in the mpmlink.service.properties.xconf file.11:12.1: We would greatly appreciate

Has anyone tried to create a custom input page for a Jasper report with an itempicker?  I see that the ootb  ChangeSummary report uses one - I tried to copy the pattern where it uses a .js script to set the contextOid (of the selectedobject) as a hidden input (and verify it is set when I debug) and submits the form but it is not getting passed to the report task.xml.   Thanks.  

My Creo version is 5.0, and windchill version is 11.0.When I use IE as inner browser , It is working(yes, some dialogue show : some scripts make your browser running slowly, do you want to stop running them). Are there some configurations in windchill server side not right?Would anyone know how to fix this problem.Thanks in advance! 

  

Hi all, Looking at customizing lifecycle states in a sandbox, adding my own states, I should have access to a "Customize Modeled Enumerations panel" under Site - Utilities - Type and Attribute Management. However, I only see the usual five "Manage,,," panels. Guides tell me not to do this directly in files, but use the utility.I'm trying to find out what I'm missing, but no luck so far in PTC help pages here. Can someone point me in the right direction, please? https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/r12.1.2.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center/etutil/TypeMgrModeledEnumEnumSelect.html#wwID0EEWEW

Hello, I would like to retrieve the constraints of a classification attribute (Valid Range, Legal Value List, String Values, etc).I tried it like mentioned in https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS240966 PersistableAdapter persistableAdapter = new PersistableAdapter(manuPart, null, SessionHelper.manager.getLocale(),new DisplayOperationIdentifier());AttributeTypeSummary attrDesc = persistableAdapter.getAttributeDescriptor(internalAttrName);attrDesc.getLegalValueSet();attrDesc.getConstraints(); getLegalValueSet() always returns null, even though all attributes I tried have at least 1 constraint.getConstraints() is deprecated and also returns null. I tried so many different approaches, nothing worked. I found another post from last year, where the same problem was described. Is there another way to query attribute constraints, is there some kind of service for that? Thanks and best regards 

As per the original post.    Hi @cblaumeier ,   I am currently having the same issue. I am not quite sure what you mean. I tried loading all classifications branches from where the attribute lies up to the root. I also tried some other approaches but no matter what I try, I always receive null when executing .getConstraints() or .getLegalValueSet().   Could you please explain this in more detail. What exactly do I need to load before loading the attribute itself?   Best regdards

Hello the Community. I'm trying to update the "Variance Summary Report" in JasperSoft Studio.I want to add tables that would include Attributes we added to the Variance.I understand I need to create the new Fields in the dataset.I added some to the DatasetForVRHeader and made sure to match their name with the attribute's internal name.In addition, I aslo found that those reports are relying on Info*Engine.Therefore, I updated the related .xml to include the attributes I want to display in my report.I updated tasks/com/ptc/windchill/enterprise/change2/reports/VarianceSummaryHeader.xml and ChangeItemSummaryHeader.xml.  (tomcat and Info*Engine caches were cleared)When compiled, the report seems not to understand the changes I made (the added attributes are displayed without value).Does anybody succeeded in making chenges to those "Info*Engine" generated reports ? Regards.François   

Hello,I have developed a custom action menu on WTPart (a default object in Windchill), but for some reason, the same action menu is appearing on its child objects as well.I would like to know how I can limit the display of this custom action menu only to the main WTPart object and not its children.Regards,Shrikant Bhosle   

How can I assign a value to the attribute flow defined in WTPart?
