Windchill Customization

I have a 10.1 production server that needs the rbinfo files implemented onto my 11 dev server, how would I go about doing this and is their any documentation on this?   Thanks,

We have a workflow for submitting a file to a library. As part of that workflow, once an EPMDocument is approved, we want to move it to a specific folder. There's sample code listed on the support page that (after correcting typos) doesn't work. Instead, it comes up with a "Context not found: "Windchill PDM"" error. I tried changing the folder path in place of the default "System" but that doesn't change anything.  Where should I look to next? What am I missing?    // Check if a PBO has been assigned to the process if (primaryBusinessObject !=null) { try { wt.folder.Folder f = wt.folder.FolderHelper.service.getFolder( "/System"); //move the PBO to the '/System' folder wt.folder.FolderHelper.service.changeFolder((wt.folder.FolderEntry )primaryBusinessObject, f ); } catch ( wt.util.WTException wex ) { System.out.println( "Cannot move "+ primaryBusinessObject.getDisplayIdentifier( )+"because "+ wex.getLocalizedMessage( )} } } else // if a PBO has not been assigned t

Recently I created a subtype of WTParts. I have now went into the View Administration of Site and created new views hierarchy:           Manufacturing                      SupplyChain1                     SupplyChain2                     SupplyChain3   I now need to assign these views to my created subtype and then call the objects with the new views in a Product Structure.   I'm unsure of what this really means, let alone how to complete this task. What would be the best way of doing this?  

Is it possible to make the value in the Trace Code Column of a structure non-editable?

This a customization question is for an existing Test Request document which is stored in a Test Library.  I want to add an attribute called "Project" to the Test Request document.  To populate the attribute, I want to be able to search and select from all existing Projects in Project Link to populate the attribute. Is this possible, and if so, how?  

Is there a way to test your code by connecting Windchill in Eclipse?For example, in Windchill-linked Eclipse, can you test the work of retrieving or revising a version of an object and applying it as a workflow expression?   So let's connect Windchill to Eclipse. (Plugin or library?)Write the code in Eclipse and make sure it works in the console log.Apply the identified code to Windchill's workflow expressions.is that right?   Is there any reason to integrate Eclipse with Windchill?   thank

I am trying to build a report with the query builder to get the release date and resolve date of an ECN.  On this moment I have this but I get double records. I am looking for a method that give me the latest activity of an ECN.Report informationJoins.SelectCriteria

Greetings all,  I've an interesting question.  It is more about the process, not (at this time) concerned with the customization. We are about to install Windchill 11.0 in a company that has not had it in the past.  We will connect it with SAP.    We are working out how to manage our ECN workflow.  Currently our idea is for our parts go from In Work to Under Review, then either Prototype, Pilot, or Released.  We want the Engineering work to complete on Change Tasks, then some SAP work to be done by various Implementors about the company.  Then, when those Implementation tasks are complete, we want the ECN to go to Resolved. The questionable area is between the completed Engineering work, and the final Resolution of the ECN. I'm calling this the 'in between' phase. The Engineering work is done and the parts are 'Released' yet more SAP must be completed before the ECN is really finished. The parts need to be in a state that SAP work can be don

I have created a folder in my created product. I want to set it to when a new part is created in the product, no matter where it is created, it will immediately be placed in my created folder. How would I set it to where this will happen? Do I modify the OIR of the parts that I want to be immediately placed in the folder? If so, how would I do this?

How to move replica site of a location to master site at aother location?   Can someone guide me with the steps involved in moving replica site from one site to another/master site.  

I need to create a new action for my created subtype. This has to appear in the actions present in the details page. Do I go into the folder system of the windchill server? How would I add actions to subtypes I create?

We are planning to switch to Windchill. Is there any installation documentation? where can I find it?

I'm currently trying to export a list of parts in my created product. I need to export the data to an excel sheet with the following columns: Name, number, revision, iteration, state, created date, modified date, container name. Where would I find the location of windchill that allows me to create an export template that I need and how would I do it?

When trying to do a set state on the created part(Which is in In work) it should show only one state in the drop down 'Approved'. Is this done in the created life cycle for the part? If so, how would I set this up?

I have written Data utility on WTDocument for getting PR number where WTPart number is same as WTDocumnet. I could retrieve the value, but I can't search document using value retrieved. I have attached source file herewith. Can any one help me ? Thanks in Advance.

I have a need to create ObjectBeans in the preProcess phase on the Form lifecycle which later phases such as the doOperation and the delegates phases will process as if those ObjectBeans had been created like the ones for a multi-creation table form.   I understand that it is the responsibility of the FormProcessorController or of a FormProcessor to create the ObjectBeans and to structure these into the simple list or in a more hierarchical form in a method such as preProcess() or createObjectBeanStructure().   Reviewing the provided Customization documentation and any samples which I can find, I do not find examples where ObjectBean.newInstance() or its parameterized form is called.   Therefore, I am a bit in the dark about how to properly instantiate new ObjectBeans. I can guess and try but any real example would be enlightening.   lvanzandt@sodius.com

I have a requirement to consume/Read/Retrieve the Engineering Images stored in the WindChill Data Store.I have some to do some basic CRUD operations through a Asp.net Core WebApi or MVC application.   Is there any API's for  for reading the engineering drawing images from the Windchill data store.   It would be great if I can get some samples in Asp.net MVC or Web-API for my requirement

All, Are you using this functionality in Windchill, if so what are your results?   Using “Open filtered CAD document structure in Creo View” shown in the image below for unpublished files, opens incorrect assembly structure. It tries to open the Creo Views files for the parts that it did publish and assembles them using the default coordinate system (or something like that) which is definitely not how they are assembled in Creo.   This create an incorrect viewable that people could accidently start using to create media, redlines, assembly instructions, etc.…… I am suggesting we investigate the how to turn off these links.   We are not using Positioning Assemblies yet.

After I define a new workflow template, I need to use this workflow for a document. How can I do this? Should I again go to utilities/workflow template Administration/choose the workflow template/ Right Mouse button/Initate Workflow process/..."    Understand there is another alternate method:  Need to cusotmize jsp pages etc., to add the menu along with the list of change processes    Is there any other better method?   Thanks...  - Ravi

hi, how to map the "source" attribute of catia in Windchill I created an enumeration with values : Unknown, Made, Bought, 0, 1, 2 , catProductBough, catProductMade and catProductSourceUnknown. but it does not work the error message is : The value of the Source attribute must be one of the following values: unknown, Made, Bought, 0, 1, 2, Unknown, Manufactured, Purchased, catProductSourceUnknown, catProductMade, catProductBought.
