Hi All,OOTB Windchill change management, we started from problem report and the process got completed after Change notice completion.1. Create Problem Report - add affected objects if any.2. Analyze PR.3. Create Change Request4. Analyze Change Request.5. Create Change Notice.6. Complete the Task - here normally designer will do some modifications/changes on resulting objects to eliminate the issue on affected objects.7. Reviewer reviews the changes.8. Audit change notice.. if approved here, all process completed with appropriate changes.If we add additional routing for Rejecting Change Notice at Audit task, it will simply reject the Change notice as well  respective CR and PR, but the changes which are done during the change task will be remains in system.How we can revert back these changes which are present on affected objects in case of Change Notice was rejected after change task was completed in system ?Is any way to tackle this ? Any idea.Regards,Vivek

we work for main Automotive Industries, and all they have own procedure to approve supplier drawings.Now due to that we are supplier, we need to:1. approve internally to "release status", before send the drawing to Customer.2. The customer, (He want collaborate without its own PDM, or its pdm is different from our) control the drawing, and "watermark" a .tiff (Image) as approved, and send us the document back.3. now how we can manage this phase ?The solutions are probably different, but I list some:A. I send the pdf (Previously internal approved by ext.tools E-Sing) leave the drawing (i.e AB.1) "inwork"(And checked-out) (Very unsafe strategy), after the Customer send, the .tiff watermarked back, so I will put the stamp on my own, I check-In, and create an Release to SAP approval process.As you understand the "A" solution is not easy, is not safe.B. send the pdf (Previously internal approved by ext.tools E-Sing) and I create a "Release to SAP approval" process I do (i.e AB.1) "Release"(

Hi everyone,   I want to create a "shortcut" for a manual representation creation for an EPM document. The idea is to have preconfigured publish options and assign an action to do the actual call to the publisher.  I have a PublishRules.xml uploaded to the  Site --> utilities --> Visualisation Configuration Administration. Because of the rules in this xml I have a dropdown combo (Output Options) on the "Chose Structure Type" step of the New representation wizard. The default value is "All" but if I select for example PDF it will start only one Publish job with the param-set selected. Now if I want to call from an action the Publisher.doPublish(...) API as I read I have to use the PublisherAction to define the "Output Options".   This is the code that I'm using, but it will trigger the publisher like if I would left "All" in the combo (4 publish jobs will be created):   Publisher pub = new Publisher(); ReferenceFactory ref = new ReferenceFactory(); Pu

Is there any way, hopefully a simple way, to reorganize the order in which things show on the Details page of a CN?  For example, I would like to move the Associated Reference Objects from the bottom to just after the Attributes.  

Hi fellow devs,   do you know how I could customize the advanced search functionality to list the results based on a ConfigSpec, or something similar. Considering I have multiple Released states (Signed, Effective), I want to show the results in this order: Effective or Signed or In Work.  The bold versions should be listed in the resulting table:   0001.A.1 -> Released 0001.B.1-> InWork    0002.A.1->Obsolete 0002.B.1-> Signed 0002.C.1-> InWork   0003.A.1-> InWork   0004.A.1->Effective
