Hi,   I need to trigger a  windchill workflow from Thingworx.  I think it's  right way to expose this function through OData rest service in windchill.  The logic of WRS  function is implemented by Javascript,  which I don't understand and don't know where to find the document of API,  I have no idea of how to implement my logic. Please help.   Below is sample code from Windchill Rest Service User Guide. function function_GetCostlyParts(data, params) { var ArrayList = Java.type('java.util.ArrayList'); var EntityCollection = Java.type('org.apache.olingo.commons.api.data.EntityCollection'); var parts = data.getProcessor().readEntitySetData(data); var partEntityMap = data.getProcessor().toEntities(parts, data); var partEntities = new ArrayList(partEntityMap.values()); var entityCollection = new EntityCollection(); for(var i = 0; i < partEntities.size(); i++) { var partEntity = partEntities.get(i); var partCostProperty = partEntity.getPropert

Hi there,   here is my need: - first I want to automaticaly publish CAD documents once they move to the Prototype State. I also have to create a step file. I had a publish Rules for that and it works fine. - then, I need to post-publish the representation "on demand" for Creo Illustrate. I have a standard publish rules for that, who works when this file is alone.    now I want to merge the 2 rules files. All my tries were not good: or I can create only one representation of the 2 rules, or I publish everything together. I guess is a syntax issue, but I don't understand. does someone have already done this exercise?    thanks in advance Ron

Hi,   We are using one revisioning sytem for all parts.The custom made parts and the catalogue parts in Windchill. This is done to keep it simple in  Windchill. In our organization, out of Windchill, the costum made part receives an revision number according to our revision scheme. The catalogue part does not receive a revision number but only an itteration numberaccording to our itterartion scheme.   The organization has decided now to add a BOM table to the drawing displaying also the revision number.That is no problem for the custom parts but is a problem for the catalogue parts.Now a revision number is displayed in the BOM table for the catalogue parts too.I am looking for advice how to solve this.   Thanks in advance.   regards, Bert

We are creating 3D models using AutoCAD and WC is configured to assign a number automatically the first time it is saved.  We then update metadata within WC, by checking out and editing the attributes.   My question is:  Is there not a way to create a list in Excel with all the filenames as per WC, where the metadata is created/updated and this list then imported into WC which then populates the spaces for the data?   Regards   Kobus

I have a life cycle that contains out of the various state two that can be set with a Set State action. Both have a right mouse button in the Action menu. When I click either one, I get a pop up window (the same window for both) with a pull down from which I can select which Action/State I want.    Is there a way to have the pull down show the state that I select in the pull down based on which Action menu I click?  For example: State 1 = Library. --> Action menu = "Library" --> pop up window pull down "Library" State 2 = Publish. --> Action menu = "Publish" --> pop up window pull down "Publish"   The current behavior is that regardless of which action menu I select, I still have to make the secondary selection to pick the state I want in the pull down menu from the pop up window.     

Hello, I need to make the query-object search case insensitive. According to the documentation, it is by default. But it my test it does not work. So I put the explicit parameter   <ie:param name="WHERE_CASE_SENSITIVITY" data="FALSE"/> but the case still sensitive. Is there further parameters or changes needed?   Thank you.

I know this can be done for WVS scheduler but I am looking for general instructions related to a old Windchill idea Task for notifying users on running old Tasks. Cat herding has not worked and I believe there are a set of infrequent users who let the "you have a task" emails flow by.  I am looking to see if anyone has written a custom job scheduler in Windchill that can run daily or on a schedule to process open tasks and look for the late ones.   My requirements on email notifications would be unique but I am looking for the hooks to schedule jobs and execute them. Are there existing queues to piggie back on or do I need my own queue? Looking for your feedback and I will share what I learn on my own.

Hello I am facing a problem that I have no idea how to solve.   Use case: Under Workspace when the user creates a new CAD Document, there is a possibility to associate a part on creation. If the “Create and Associate Part ” is checked on CAD Document creation, an extra step should be implemented where the associated part attributes can be filled. (This way the user don’t need to find the created part and fill its attributes separately after CAD Document creation.)   Could you suggest me a way to solve this issue? Windchill version is 10.2 M030.
