I would like to know what are the major impacts of giving a freehand to end users to skip revisions.1)Is there performance impacts in Windchill.2)Are there any downstream impacts due to the skipped revision sequence.3)What are the impacts on the search engine of Windchill  

I want to customize the version synchronizations for the part, cad and drawing data we use in windchill. I don't want to do this manually. Is it possible to create a flow for this process and take part data codes from users in this flow and synchronize these codes to the most current version in the workflow? If we do the version synchronization process in the workflow, will there be a problem in connecting the data with each other?  

I need to make a new update for the Promotion request process. After users submit WTParts to SAP, they draw their drawings, which causes confusion.For this situation,I defined an attribute called "DRWPART" in WTPart. When DRWPART value is selected as YES, we indicate that there is or will be found a DRW data belonging to WTPart.I want to check codes with DRWPART value of YES.When the DRW data is not added in the promotion of these codes, I want the user to be assigned a task and the process to proceed without adding the DRW data. How can I control this?

 We set two GroupConfigs in an AttributePanelConfig as below: ComponentConfigFactory factory = getComponentConfigFactory();AttributePanelConfig attrPanelConfig = factory.newAttributePanelConfig();ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle(bundleBasename, locale);// First group list layout GroupConfig groupConfig = factory.newGroupConfig("documentFilterGroup", bundle.getString(createSendJobForTFE.FILTER_DOCUMENTS), 3);...attrPanelConfig.addComponent(groupConfig); //Second group list layoutGroupConfig groupConfig2 = factory.newGroupConfig("documentFilterGroup", bundle.getString(createSendJobForTFE_SELECT_DOCUMENTS), 3);..attrPanelConfig.addComponent(groupConfig2); Once these are set, the layouts are seen one below the another. How can I set the layouts (groupConfig and groupConfig2) side by side in the same line? Thanks
