Windchill Customization

Anyone know why this is.I have set Org and Site preference for Affected End Items Display to No.If a users creates a CR in a Folder or from an item in a folder then the CR does not contain section 2 "Affected End Items Display". If a users creates a CR from a Search result (Actions) then the CR does have Affected End Items Display.As a side note, the folder actions does not include items they can not compete (we do not allow users to create a CN or Problem Reports) but on the Search actions the action is listed to create a Change Notice or a Problem Report.Thanks.

Hello Windchill Gurus,We have a requirement to print some Environment Variables at the beginning of the MS Log.

Hello all,I'm having a workflow issue and hope someone can help. We have a process whose workflow requires approvals. Each approvers is given 2 options (votes), Complete or Rework. If all approvers vote "Complete", the workflow moves along to the next activity (coordinator approve and release), as expected. However, if any one approvers votes "Rework", the process assigns a Rework task (expected) but also moves forward to the next activity. This causes an issue for the person assigned the Rework task as they can't update or edit the object because it is undergoing a review process. (See attachment for error message) This also means you can't change the state even from an admin account either for the same reason. Any ideas as to what is happening?Thanks in advance for any suggestions and / or ideas.David

Deviation/Number is editable in rename action even after denying modify identify permission.Even if we apply Immutable constraint from OIR or Type & Attribute Manager it is applicable only on creation. We can restrict editing this on Edit action by making it read only for edit or by removing it from edit layout however we cannot control this behavior for Rename Action. Profiles neither allow hiding rename action.Also,  Rename interface is based on the framework CADX HTML template for which Customization is not supported.Please make number non-editable in rename action.

I am working on making a FRACAS input form in windchill 10.1 & wanted to know if there was a way I could get some of the fields to auto fill with a previous incident's data when that previous incident's identifier is entered into a "parent failure #:" field so that they wont need to re-enter all the data for a repeat failure. Thank you for your time.

Using Windchill, every window I open in sequence of a previous one has reduced font size, getting so small it becomes unworkable.Where can I find the setting to keep the font size the same? See screengrabs below.

Looking at an ALM / PLM integration with Windchill. ALM we expect to integrate is supporting OSLC (Open Services Lifecycle Collaboration). From this point of view what is the best way to integrate with windchill in terms of architecture? (knowing that webservices are required for OSLC). I was thinking of the REST web services but unsure what windchill really supports for this? Thank you in Advance. Regards, Devidas

  Implement the PDMLink options, which enables to choose if unverified family table can be checked in or not. Currently we have to invest additional effort to create specific triggers / listeners, which can prevent check in unverified family tables. Options available in Creo:    Modelcheck Die config.pro option: verify_on_save_by_default=yes     are not sufficient. We need the option in PDMlink. Now in PDMlink 10.2 or 11.0 it's possible to check in the unverified family table.

Hello Everyone,I have created a Validator for Change Task which validates the Release Target States of the Resulting Items. The state limitation should happen based on the CN attribute Complexity (Fast Track vs Full Track)If while creating the CN, user changes the value to Complexity attribute to Fast Track, I am finding it difficult to read that value in the validator written for Change Task.Is there any method with which we can read the Complexity attribute defined in the wizard session on the validator written for the Change Task?Any insights on this would be helpful. Thanks in advance !Regards,Karan
