Hi All,   Wanted to see which ways there would be to attack this... I have users that will get promotion requests with say 10 or more drawings... once the promotion request inevitably goes thru the rework process, my users cannot tell which drawings have been iterated, and need rechecking at a glance.  I was thinking perhaps there is a way to display this in a notification email?  Or a new tab on the promotion request page which says whether a drawing has a new iteration (True/false) since the last submission?   Thanks in advance for weighing in!

Why can't I use the below mentioned alternate way, please explain the difference between them.   As-Is logic: private static EPMDocumentMaster getParentsByEPM(List<EPMDocument> parentsrList, EPMDocument instanceEpm)throws WTException{        parentsrList.add(instanceEpm);       QueryResult ft_qr2 = EPMStructureHelper.service.navigateGenericToIteration( instanceEpm, null, true, null);       if(ft_qr2 != null && ft_qr2.size() > 0) {             while(ft_qr2.hasMoreElements()) {                    EPMDocument epm = (EPMDocument) ft_qr2.nextElement();                    par

Hello, we use Windchill as the back end product of xml in Arbortext Editor. We've been told that Windchill is the best way to manage and use content that is reused in multiple documents. Does anyone have experience doing this or does anyone have instructions? Thanks!  

I am trying to work backward from creating a new workflow for promotion requests... I want to make an additional lifecycle to select from.  I need to edit the OIR to allow a drop down for lifecycle selection. But... I just noticed that at the organization level.. I have both the site-OOTB and the slightly modified organization level OIR in the list.  My question is... how does windchill pick which OIR to use?   Thanks for any insight!

Is there a way to auto exclude parts from a certain context from being collected in the promotion process?  I don't want library items showing up in the collector.   Thanks,   Mike

Hello everyone When creating project plans on Windchill Projectlink , we created it by choosing the automatic execution option.   The biggest reason why we chose this;   1-) Emailing to users,2-) Not opening a task to past days,3-) We chose this method for more than one reason, such as not deleting the closed activities.    Normally our working hours are from 8:00 am-6:00Pm Monday to Friday for the week. There are situations when the friends in the project cannot close their tasks due to their intensity during the day. But there is a situation I noticed yesterday. If it is necessary to give an example outside of working hours, when they close their tasks after 6:00 pm, the actual work value is 0. This is the same not only in the evening but also on weekends.   How can I bring actual work value to real effort when they close their tasks on weekends and evenings?   If anyone knows, can there be support?

Hello,   I have created one simple workflow in that second activity i have selected designer as participant role .But when i select participant particularly it wont send task to assigned role user.But when we select individual user it will work properly.

My company has its own raw materials folder in Windchill. In our part drawings, we use the parameter PTC_MATERIAL_DESCRIPTION.     When we need to change a material description, we have to do it in Windchill and in the material file itself (see attached picture), because PTC_MATERIAL_DESCRIPTION is driven by the material file description, not the windchill common name.    I have two questions:  1. Is there a way to link the Windchill material common name and the material file description so we only have to update the name in Windchill? or 2. Is there a way to pull the material common name from Windchill into a parts parameters?   Thanks,   Bob

API to develop a search functionality in jsp page to get the related Object list while entering the number.

HI, I want a API to get all levels of where used part, I am using the below API to get where used StructHelper.service.navigateUsedBy(part.getMaster(),true);  but this gives only 1st level parts. I want all levels as shown in Where Used tab in windchill. For now I am giving recursive call to the function to get all levels, but this is taking long time, processing time is too high, Is there any better way to do so?   @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") private   ArrayList<Object> getPartStructure(WTPart part,ArrayList<Object> objectList)  {  try   {     ArrayList<WTPart> set=new ArrayList<>();   QueryResult resultWhere=StructHelper.service.navigateUsedBy(part.getMaster(),true);        while (resultWhere.hasMoreElements())    {    Object object = (Object) resultWhere.nextElement();    &n
