Hello,      We are looking to make some changes to our current revision scheme, primarily to move from file/list-based to a state-based revision scheme. I’d like to get some feedback on this before trying on our dev server.      I’ve attached the modified .xml that I plan to upload, our existing Series is “COMPANY” and I’ve appended my new series as “COMPANY_STATE_BASED”. The current revision scheme was customized from OotB and implemented quite some time ago. It allows numeric values as legacy, then begins with ”–“ and continues to alphabetic. We would like to update this to a state-based revision scheme with the same values, except that the numeric labels would be used for Design and Development phases and automatically switch to alphabetic labels once an object moves to Production. From what I’ve read I understand that it’s possible but not recommended to change revision schemes once in use. Questions:Is the file formatted correctly?

Hi all, I am building a custom rest service which takes 2 string parameters and returns some output. However, one of the string parameters is an encrypted string which contains special characters and has unknown length. I keep getting an error : (Key ' ' is invalid), parsing error. Now I'm wondering if there is a limitation with the approach I'm taking. If so, is there another way to accept encrypted strings?

I cannot see why not but let me know if anyone has used the WVS Scheduler Administrator for other administrative tasks other than publishing and WVS. I have a sync task were I need to connect to an outside database and compare data to objects in Windchill. Seems to be the perfect vehicle to create the jobs, schedule it and monitor its execution. Assuming other scheduler tasks are defined in a similar manner, is there a more recommended method of hooking them in or kicking them off?

Greetings,Little puzzled how users in a role (team members) have Reassign View on the wtPart when they don't seem to have been granted Modify Identity in ACL?I don't see Modify Identity on the wtObject either. Any suggestions on how the team member could have access to that action. I have checked ACL at context, Org and Site on wtObject and wtPart (including sub-types). I used a generic role but also check Team Members   

I want a new part instance to follow our standard versioning scheme, but it appears to be a different scheme (starts at Rev A). How is versioning controlled on part instances? I can't seem to find any information on this subject or a PTC support article.

Hello community! I am looking through the PTC | Windchill code right now and I am encountering a lot of if(RemoteMethodServer.ServerFlag) { run code } else { remoteMethodServer.invoke(...)} constructs. I am figuring this means something like "If the code is executed server-side then continue, otherwise invoke the method on the particular method server". But where would this code be executed, if not on the method server? Can anyone please give me a better / more technical explanation. Why is it important to use this construct and when should you use it? Thanks in advance and best regards

Hello everyone, I'm currently in search of the Windchill customization guide PowerPoint presentation from PTC Academy which I have seen previously. This presentation contains code screenshots and other visual elements. While I already have the customization guide in PDF format, I'm specifically interested in obtaining the PowerPoint presentation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.     

Our Client work has a need for development. Windchill 12.1.1.0 (12.1.1.5 release) is used. When doing change management and new product releases in Windchill, our designers have difficulties to inspect that all necessary items have been added to the change object (ECN / resulting objects). We can modify the WT-structure view to show "change status" column. That shows us a clear visual view to check that all necessary items (WT-parts) have been added to the change notice. Problem is that in assemblies CAD-structure view its not possible to get "change status" to be shown. The change object (EPR, ECR, ECN) is linked to every WT-part and CAD objects when the object has been added to the change notice. And it can be seen in single part CAD-view etc, but problem is that in bigger assembly views, single CAD-part "change status" cant be seen. The status can be seen in WT-structure view, when selecting the wanted WT-part from the assembly and under "Viewing" - "Show" - CAD
